When players finally encounter Caesar, they don’t find a hulking monster, but rather a man who resembles a pedantic cosplayer obsessed with Roman aesthetics. However, this meeting offers a rare opportunity to debate his ideology. Gonzalez explained the challenge: “I had to write a character who could offer a sophisticated, albeit chilling, defense for authoritarian rule.”
“In fiction, if you want to avoid coming across as preachy or creating mere propaganda, you have to ensure your adversaries are as formidable as possible,” Gonzalez added. While few players would truly side with the Legion’s atrocities, the faction has managed to maintain a surprisingly dedicated fanbase, perhaps validating Gonzalez’s fear that he succeeded a bit too well.
