I agree with you on one thing: the main plot falls apart in a lot of places if you start to really think about it, and the Emperor very much contributes to that. I have no idea if it's due to rewrites during Early Access or if Larian's priorities are just elsewhere. And priorities being elsewhere isn't a terrible thing - I think that making a fun game can legitimately be seen as more important than making an internally consistent one.

And that's sort of the issue here. I had more fun with the Guardian than with Daisy. Daisy was not tempting in any way, shape or form. I was not interested. I was not intrigued. But I also didn't harbor any violent urges. I just wanted them to Go. Away. The Guardian was a huge improvement; I still wanted them to Go. Away. in the end, but getting there was a much more interesting ride.
