Did you kill or spare Daud? [Contains Spoiler]

[Commander Shepard]

Did you kill Daud for his crimes or spare him because he says he already suffers for them?
I killed him because
1)He said he regrets and suffers for killing Empress but he didn't do anything about this. He got skills he got manpower but he didn't do anything.
2)He fought me for until his last breath then he begs for his life. If I'm suffering for my mistakes I won't beg for my life.

Actually I usually play games with minimum body counts(like always Full Paragon in Mass Effect, Full Vigilante in Watch Dogs ...) but Daud didn't deserve spared. Killing him won't bring Empress back and he is just a tool for murder but he must be stopped.


Sorry for bad english. I hope you understood.
Edit:I don't have ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DLC's. Bethesha acting like DLC Greedy firms like EA and Ubisoft.

A waste of money means that what you bought had no purpose and it's just pointless.
The DLC was worth the money, so it's not a waste at all.

I've done both, but prefer to leave him alive. I prefer it because it's Corvo saying "I'm the better assassin than you and the better person than you. I could have killed you, but didn't. You better leave me & Emily alone or I'll be back, and you won't survive."

For me it also harkens to Corvo giving Daud a second chance, but also not giving into feelings of revenge and hatred. *shrugs* Just the way I view it - oh, and I don't fight him, I pickpocket him... or choke him out and leave him to sleep it out with all his other sleeping assassins :p

I took Daud's purse, because as everyone know, this is the worst thing that can happen to an assassin.

I mean, this beats branding the face with a red hot iron poker, like I did with the High Overseer. This is far worse than cutting off his tongue and let him slave away in a silver mine, like I did with the Pendelton Twins. This is even more twisted and evil than locking him up in a basement with an old pervert, like I did with Lady Boyle. Yes, stealing an assassin's purse beats it all. Take that Daud!

Last time (like 1 minute ago) I played Daud he spared me.

I think it depends on if you end with High or Low chaos. If you were good he spares you, if you were evil he kills you. Even though he knows nóthing of the things Daud does in the DLC's. Kinda silly but cool xD

You know, the best course of action would have been to have the DLC detect and read your main game savefile the same way The Brigmore Witches reads The Knife of Dunwall's, and have the game end based on that. Sure, it's likely that someone doing a low chaos run in the DLC would have done the same in the main game, but the way it is, the pickpocketing route is never accounted for. The least they could have done would be for the ending to consist of Daud noticing his missing pouch if the player did a stealth or pacifist run throughout the DLC.

You've proven to him that you're better at his job than he is.

Nah, we just hugged it out, we played some video games at his home, drank some Mountain Dew, and then we had sex.

I always spare him. The fight's fun, but sometimes I like leaving the message "I could've killed ya, but I didn't".

[Count Landshark]

i spared him, let that be a warning to him.

I could've killed my brother, but I didn't.
I also could've killed my dad, and my dog, and that random guy I met in the store yesterday, but I didn't.

Congratulations! Any idiot can present the slippery slope fallacy, and as you've shown, most idiots do!

Even before I knew what was in the DLC, I spared Daud. Mostly, I think because of his guilt and Burrows's recording in the previous level.

Burrows's absolute insistence that he had no choice but to kill the Empress when she was close to discovering what he had done profoundly ticked me off. When it came time to do away with him, I made sure he knew it was me. I kept out of sight the whole way there so the guards would be in the Main Hall chatting via the video cam and Burrows would insist that no one was about so he would be safe in his room. Then I did away with the guards, pulled up the camera, and took off the mask so he would see who was coming for him. Then when he hid in the safe house, I stayed quiet all the way up to his doorway and then blew up the whale oil tank. I got close enough to cut him, lifted the crossbow, and shot him with a sleep dart. Then I ran out, dived off the building, and disappeared into a fish afterwhich I snuck back inside to play the recording so everyone would know the truth he tried to cover up. After everything he did-- killed the woman I loved, kidnapped my little girl and hid her in a CAT HOUSE (for which I will never forgive him), framed me for treason and regicide, tortured me for months-- after all that, I had no choice but to kill him and I chose to spare him anyway.

Then there's Daud. Your countryman. He's the only one that feels even the slightest bit guilty for what happened. He also spared you twice: first when you were just a muggle bodyguard that came home too early and again when he found you half-dead in the boat. As he's requesting you to spare his life, you look up and there she is, standing statue-white at the front of the building. Jessamine. Who always trusted people. Who was a good ruler and fair and just. And revenge... doesn't solve everything. It won't get her back. It won't even help you find Emily again. You're all that little girl has left, and she's been watching you. In the end, what do you want her to see?

So you let him go and go back to keeping the vow you made to a dying woman.
