Meh, first debate was a bit underwhelming because most expected Trump would start out all guns blazing right from the first debate. He just held himself back for the audience that was about to see him for the first time but then the whole "grabbed her by the pussy" happened and he just stopped giving a fuck in the second debate and straight up murdered her. The amount of genius comeback lines in that second debate were just too much. MAYBE, I will give Crooked the third debate only because even Trump couldn't surpass himself from the second debate.

Now, in my opinion, he came accross too strong in the first one. He'd never really been in that setting before and came out at 110%. Meanwhile Hillary was deliberately acting all calm and collected to make Trump seem even more over the top.

I remembered it differently but I literally just watched it again and I agree with your assessment, although I do think he gained enough experience from having debated his GOP opponents so he wasn't completely new to the concept of debating although a 1 vs 1 debate might be considered substantially different.

Meanwhile Hillary was deliberately acting all calm and collected to make Trump seem even more over the top.

I can see that this was her angle but to me she wasn't any different than her usual self, just her faked and emotionless self.

I do still think, in my opinion, that Trump still won this one although he could have held back a bit more as you mentioned in order to persuade more voters.
