@Mjarr
I don't understand. What's the problem with personality?
If we assume the amnesia potion causes irrevocable loss of all memory (pertaining to identity, not procedural memory) -- and we have every reason to believe this is true -- then Daniel committed suicide at the start of the game.
Without knowing more about the amnesia potion, then I would consider the "player" Daniel a new person -- who cannot be held accountable for the "old" Daniel's actions any more than Santa Claus.
A person is always themselves unless they're not themselves (i.e., dead), heh. I mean ... who else would they be?
