Speaking of baddies named Penny, you fight a villain named Bad Penny in.... the LGTF?

Another example of it being alternative rather than mirror is the Devouring Earth - they have exactly the same motivations on Praetoria, only they seem to have been way more successful than on Primal Earth.

Given in to the Dark side we have cookies, and Handsome Pretty boys with silver hair.

Quote:The new enemy is also "nefarious" - not sure if that's important or notOriginally Posted by Scythus
No one mentioned doppelgangers save the fans. All that's been mentioned officially is "a new enemy that will match players blow for blow."

Quote:Well, that's one possible meaning, but they usually seem to give Issue titles that are tied to something in-game, rather than something like a graphics upgradeOriginally Posted by That_Ninja
I thought it is called Dark Mirror because of the new reflective surfaces and shadows from UM.

Quote:It's possible - having to fight a mirror of yourself, with exactly the same powers has been requested quite a bit.Originally Posted by falloutsurvivor
so maybe the doppleganger thing is for Issue 17 and not GR

Quote:The only time they've been mentioned was in an article about I17, and the "nefarious new enemy" that will match us "blow for blow" - so some kind of doppelganger does seem to be suggested by that, as well as the title "Dark Mirror".Originally Posted by Zikar
Doppelgängers have not been mentioned (officially) at all.

Quote:But an alternative universe is not always a mirror oneOriginally Posted by falloutsurvivor
mirror universe or alternative universe is globally the same thing.
because a mirror universe IS an alternative universe.
alternative is the umbrella term.

Starting with agreeing to work for an Evil dictator. I'm already uncomfortable.
To quote the trailer:

"Looks can be deceiving"

I'm not asking that it not turn the Heroes evil to work for Tyrant, or that too would defeat the purpose of the expansion, but at least don't start off the side switching arcs with burning down kindergartens.
The main writer for Praetoria said it's done as a snowball effect, getting you do more and more questionable things, until you feel uncomfotable with what you're being asked to do in the name of peace and security. -
Quote:It's an alternative universe - it's not a mirror universeOriginally Posted by falloutsurvivor
since Preatoria is a mirror universe.

Quote:Doppelgangers were never mentioned at all - and certainly not in any GR infoOriginally Posted by Commander
Going Rogue will feature "Doppelgangers" according to the Going Rogue info released recently.

Maybe in the sense of: we have a general idea, basically their names, their general appearance, which counterpart they are, and their powers. But in terms of everything else, it's anybody's guess.

Quote:Not quiteOriginally Posted by BeyondReach
As for the - let's face it - previous incarnations of the Praetorians, they are irrelevant.

We've got so much juicy new stuff to share with you guys, and it kills me that I have to wait 'til the end of March to say anything else on the topic.

Quote:Like Superman?Originally Posted by Lightslinger
The entire Freedom Phalanx desperately need make overs. They are the "face" of the game to newcomers because they're splashed all over the boxes, ads, anything in marketing uses the Freedom Phalanx in some way or another. Their costumes all look old, dated, they're just "generic heroes".

Still amazes me that the henchman thing is allowed to go on

Quote:Just call them TT, for Tyrant's Thugs.Originally Posted by cursedsorcerer
Hmm... Another thought. After GR, we will have two different enemy groups with the same shorthand. We have the Paragon Police Department or PPD and the Praetorian Police Department also PPD. So, how do we rectify THIS?

Not sure someone who's scared can scare others

Quote:It might be very useful for dealing with something that's not in the game - yetOriginally Posted by CoyoteShaman
Just found this at ParagonWiki: "Activating this power shifts you into a semi-real shadow-state. So long as you are not attacked and remain motionless, you will have extremely good stealth rating and be nearly invisible. This power has a long, interruptible cast time and always takes 10 minutes to recharge."
Huh? An interruptable stealth power that means you can't attack or even move? So you have to not have any agro before using it and once you do you can't move. So it's good for when you're waiting around for patrols that you already know are coming towards you but don't have time to get behind a corner but do have time to deal with the "long interrupt"? Not nearly so drooly any more. Now I'm just more confused. Sounds more like the vet-pets in usefulness than, say, Mystic Fortune. I was hoping for something closer to the middle.

Quote:But is someone like, say, Doctor Aeon really that strong, or is he just the best at what he does?Originally Posted by Fleeting Whisper
The Rogue Isles don't really have a similar government structure to Praetoria. Praetoria is a meritocracy - the best in each field holds power in the field. The Rogue Isles is social darwinism - the strongest hold the power.
And is someone like Westin Phipps even superpowered at all?
