Hot take: I found him acting better before the bearded wrecking ball aesthetic. His acting always seemed a bit wooden to me, but after the change he leaned more into it in my opinion. Definitely not saying he is a bad character or actor of course, he is still my second favorite captain after Picard.
I had always assumed that change was part of the character’s arc. At the start he is a by the books commander and by the end he talks with 5 dimensions aliens, believes he is one chosen to guide a planet full of people and is willing to toss out his morals to manipulate other great powers.
100 percent. Sisko just does not work for me - but Quark is the reason I keep coming back.
Sisko improves once he metaphorically and literally “grows the beard”.

His laughter feels so fake
