Certainly a different message from the first, but a good one nevertheless. Some of the telepathic messages are downright terrifying from a father/big brother perspective when you can only imagine what is happening without really knowing what is going on.
Some say it "perverts" Ryan's Despairing Idealist character from Bioshock, but as with all things, power corrupts. I kind of like that aspect to it.
At first I felt really weak for a Big Daddy, but after a couple tonics, I really enjoy letting a Little Sister harvest Adam while I protect her. Trying to guess where they'll come from to effectively use traps is a lot of fun (even when I'm a bit off, damn Houdinis).
