Quote:A typical loyalistHe's a jerk and a murderer, and has long since given up any second chances he may have once deserved.
I've only ever met Reese in the tutorial - he's like a signpost for directing people to join the Resistance with his loyalists ranting about having to comply, and "disappearing" if you don't. -
Quote:That doesn't make him incompetent - it makes him immoral.And while some might argue he did rule competently, I kind of say you lose enormous points in "competency" as a ruler when you're dependent on thought police, secret police, drugged water to placate citizens, etc. etc.
For example, apart from when story requirements came first, the Empire in Star Wars was portrayed as pretty competent - but it was also totally immoral. -

Warrent/Reese has fascist slash potential.

Quote:That whole arc is another nice touch - the hopeless search for a superweapon to reverse the tide of the war as the allied forces close inWell, so is Chimera, in the Belladonna Vetrano Incarnate arc. He tells you as much repeatedly, in among the threats to murder you if you don't stop fighting against him.

Quote:The bunker setting was certainly a nice historical touchIt also gives us a glimpse of just how conscious he was of his own failures, and how he recognizes the enormity of his mistakes. It even tells us just how much he despises Mother Mayhem. If you read carefully, whether you believe he is evil or not, in the end Cole is still trying to save his own world.
He offers the last three who follow him the opportunity to rest. He reflects on how the option of fighting at full power would have destroyed the home he loved, how he could fight without restraint now that his world had been ruined.
My favorite part of that personal story was how he admits to himself that fighting Primal Earth was his biggest mistake, and that his choice to do so had destroyed Praetoria. -
Quote:That's what Tyrant's personal story mission is forAt least kicking the primals that are helping themselves to remnants of their city out would be an okay consolation prize.
It gives the stiff-armers one final glimpse of their glorious Leader before the Heroes tear down his reich. -
I think it's so that Villains will feel like he's one of them, even when they're being asked to help the Heroes.

From the I20 overview:
"Emperor Cole's ultimate goal is not to hold ultimate sway over our Earth, but to conquer the entire multiverse."
Plus, Ramiel spells it out in the I20 Trailer:

Quote:By the person who was supposed to be "protecting" it.and much of one of the few surviving cities/safe havens on the planet has been smashed flat
Quote:you declare victory and fly off to the next superbattle, right? Picking up the pieces, that's someone else's problem... -
Quote:We didn't make the agreement.Yeah, after we destroyed the agreement keeping Hamidon at bay.
Quote:Can you honestly say Praetoria is better off because the Primals went there?
Quote:As opposed to, say, a message sent from Statesman to Emperor Cole, "Look, we don't want a war, I'll do my best to keep anyone from my dimension going there if you don't send any of your guys here"?
Quote:True, that didn't happen and might not have worked, there was a war and we needed to take it to Praetoria to avoid Praetoria conquering our dimension. But let's not pretend we did it to "liberate" Praetoria or that the net result of the war was in any way whatsoever good for Praetoria. -

How can we answer the thread question without spoilers?

And the only logical response to theft is to conquer the multiverse.
