However, since they're digital clones of real people, with all their memories and personality up to being placed in the game, they are still prisoners, which is Daly's entire design.

In his ''Star Fleet'' game, on the other hand, [[WhatYouAreInTheDark he becomes quite the tyrant]].

Added DiffLines:
* ParalyzingFearOfSexuality: He never goes beyond kissing and seems to be extremely uncomfortable with anything relating to sex, seeming unnerved rather than enticed when Nanette strips down in front of him and not even allowing any of his victims to have genitals. Given his awkward personality in the real world, it's heavily implied that he's never had sex or even a romantic partner.

Despite being highly intelligent, he is introverted to the point of having trouble exerting authority over even his own real life subordinates, and seems to otherwise lack a social life, spending most of his off-the-clock time in ''Infinity.''

Baleful Polymorph was renamed per TRS
Changed line(s) 76 (click to see context) from:
* VirtualRealityWarper: As the creator of ''Infinity'' he has access to an developer build of the game, but he's modded it to resemble his favourite TV show and granted himself special abilities within the game, from superhuman strength to the power to alter character models at will. Unfortunately, he mainly uses this for twisted power fantasies: having copied the minds of real people into the game, he forces them to participate in his attempts to play space hero, [[TheBlank erasing Nanette's face]] when she refuses to willingly participate and [[BalefulPolymorph transforming repeat offenders into monsters]] as punishment. His only weakness is that he needs to be in close proximity to a target for his powers to work.

* {{Hypocrite}}: After defeating Valdack during one of his play sessions, Daly chooses to decline his request to kill him off, noting that doing so would be going against the "code" that each space captain has to follow. As Walton later reveals however, Daly has absolutely no problem with forcibly ejecting children out into space through the airlock just to force his crew to obey him. This indicates that he really doesn't care that much about his supposed code, and just wants to keep Valdack alive to further torture him.
