The little guy always loses out to the greater good - that's why we're here to rescue him

I'm pretty sure that's been going on ever since there were 3-4 MMOs to choose from

I'm pretty sure movies like The Godfather trilogy and Schindler's List count as reasonably "grown up", and they managed to do well at the box office.

The Avengers shows that Whedon is much better working with established material, rather than his own vanity projects.

To show the people that the tyrannical Positron and his Freedom Phalanx thugs can't protect them.

If ice does, then it kinda has too

I've heard it used it to describe Firefly and Serenity though - and going by the ones I've met, it also seems to apply to the Brownshirts too, and theeir "it's the next Star Wars, man!" drivel - if they'd just added "Holiday Special" to the claim, it would have been a lot more accurate.

Tyrant's "popularity" needed a little help to keep it going

I want it added to Cimerora

I think that if they get enough good suggestions for parts that don't really make a themed set, they might consider doing some kind of "accessories" pack.

Actually, it's been suggested that Primal Erath is called that because of how it's like a dimensional hub, with links to more dimensions than other Earths have, which is why it's such an important target for multiverse conquerors.

You do - each month, you get a token to unlock another of the vet rewards.

You do know that they've said that there's going to be another way to get these, don't you?

Not really - planning to conquer the multiverse shows that he'd gone totally crazy before the war even started

By the time of the Magisterium Trial, he's got about as many scraps of common sense left as he's got friends and allies

You're going to be so disappointed with I23

But he's fine with nuking Nova Praetoria - for the greater good, of course

When he's planning a war that will slaughter trillions of people as part of his plan to take over all of existence, he probably doesn't want another entity going power because of it.

He plans to conquer the multiverse - that puts him in the big league of naughty types.

You're about 35 years off with that statement

Don't forget that Praetoria was planned form the start to be the first enemy in the Incarnate storyline, so it had to be an evil place to provide a suitable enemy for Heores, as co-op content has a heroic theme.
The war is also set up to follow the patern of the most popular original "endgame" content - the Maria Jenkin's arc - so we hunt the loyalist AVs down in their various lairs, until we finally confront Tyrant - only this time, instead of setting free just one hero, we're setting free an entire world.

Distancing himself from the evil acts of his loyalists helps him keep up his self-image as a hero, and keep up the "for the greater good" lie.

And anyone who fought back against Tyrant's stormtroopers - plus the loyalist invasion plan outlined how they were going to mind scan the entire surviving population of Primal Earth to discover any potential "troublemakers" who could be "dealt with".
So their range of targets when invading covered anyone who stood against them, and anyone who might think about resisting them in the future - and with 7 billion people involved, that was going to create a pretty high body count.
And as the loyalists planned to conquer the multiverse, thay'd rack up a pretty impressive kill score in each dimension they enslaved.
The Praetorian war isn't just about saving Primal Earth and Praetoria form the loyalists - it's about saving all of existence from them.

That's because it is
