I don't think Dalton resonated with audiences coming after Moore. Moore was a hard act to beat and I think audiences came to like the nice guy Bond, campy humor and really cheesy one liners.
Dalton, to me, did come across as an dick, thoughtful at times, sure, but a dick nonetheless. His tone, his attitude and sometimes his aggressiveness towards his female side kicks. It's nice to find someone else who also liked Dalton. He's a underrated Bond, IMO.
