I personally think TDAS Duncan gets too much of a bad wrap. His plotline gave his character a lot of depth and finally continued his arc from TDI. He has a hidden desire to be a better person, but his impulsive, rebellious thrillseeking always beats it out in the end. I guess it didn't have a very satisfying conclusion, but it kinda makes me confused about all the Duncan hate. People always say his character went downhill because he lost that hidden nice side and never got punished, yet when he gets BOTH of those things people just think it's another reason to complain about him??

I feel his character is very versatile.You can have him been a straight up antagonistic figure (TDWT) have him being someone to feel for (TDI and TDAS) and it all feels natural for his character since he never goes too far in either direction. He was a terrible person in TDWT and I condemn his actions but I didn't see him as so horrible I had to hate him forever. If anything, I have to admire the fact that a character could make such a huge impact on a season in such a short time. You can bash the love triangle for days but I think had the dude simply not returned like everyone wanted so badly, we wouldn't look back at TDWT so fondly like many of us do today
