I dont think that it takes players away from other systems. I think the way its designed and it's simplicity will prohibit most of it's players from trying anything else different or more complex.

I'm trying to see in where I wrote that I was stating otherwise. I specifically stated that "I" avoided those games. Not once did I state that they were invalid play styles or that they shouldn't exist. If I did? please point to it? Thanks. Or at least read the post that I was responding to...

Which is exactly why I wont play games like Pendragon or historic simulation RPGS (any westerns or games that take place prior to the 1970's). CALL OF CTHULHU was a no go for me for decades until HARLEM UNBOUND. YOU don't see the desire of playing ones self (some variation thereof) in an RPG but...

I read the source material. I'm increasingly not a fan of cynical, hyper-violent "superhero" tales. Bad guys win in the real world ALL THE TIME. I have no interest in super powered sociopaths. There are enough in the real world thank you very much. Unless the show is DRASTICALLY different from...

I know this is a hot take but I'm not interested in a BLACK PANTHER movie WITHOUT T'Challa. They recast people ALL THE TIME. Why is this character so precious that they cant or wont do that. I mean I know why but still. I know at some point Shuri DOES take over the mantle of BP but T'challa...

I'm reading/have read: CASTE by Isabel Wilkerson, THE SUM OF US by Heather McGhee, MEDIOCRE by Ijeoma Oluo, SHOW YOUR WORK by Austin Kleon, THE COLOR OF LAW by Richard Rothstein, and HITLER'S AMERICAN MODEL by James Q. Whitman.

If it's like all of the other's we've seen thus far it's one and one. But it does seem to be a balance between the Serum+VitaRays of Erskine's method and the blue intravenous liquid given to the Hydra Operatives in CA: CIVIL WAR. Mostly I'm guessing due to the time between Walker palmed the...

Are you seriously doing the "reverse racism" thing with the Wakandans here? When it was T'Challa who clearly at the end of CA: Civil War not only stops Zemo from committing suicide but also turns Zemo BACK over to the authorities? When in BLACK PANTHER when T'Challa wanted to kill Klaw he...

Your first and second sentences are spot on. But while he was anti-Avengers in CIVIL WAR, tool he used to extract his vengeance were in fact Super-Soldiers (Bucky and Steve). He framed one in order to draw him out to get intelligence about the others AND what really happened to Tony's...

You can argue that she amplified his fear, which pushed him to take the actions that he took. But at what point can you claim that he was a puppet and what point can you claim he's responsible for his actions? I'll give you the fact that he was already suffering from PTSD from the Battle of NY...

Not only that but the conversation he has with Lamar after the Dora Milaje fight. It's pretty strongly stated that some of the things they did in Afghanistan when they served together left a mark on their souls, Walker in particular. Lamar: You already have three Medals of Honor. You...

Youre Right. If you're the owner of the car, no one would reasonably hold you responsible. But if you're the manufacturer? YES, You would absolutely be held responsible. And Tony, SPECIFICALLY knew that he was taking a big risk in incorporating what he found in at Strucker's base into his...

I just rewatched that episode and that Flag Smasher was NOT a dangerous enemy. He was terrified and fleeing for his life. While fleeing, he threw a stone (?) garbage bin at Walker. Not as an attempt to hurt him but to put something between him and Walkers wrath. He turns and continues to flee...

There are reasons why people are heroic. There are reasons why people are selfish. I don't think selfishness, sociopathy and cruelty are things to aspire to or excuse. Are they part of the real world? OVERWHELMINGLY. Which is why I don't want them from players in my game. For me its a...

I'm okay with that sort of thing to a point. But I've had my fill of sociopaths early on in my gaming years, if casual murder and assault is someone's thing and especially if they don't expect consequences? That's a problem. and those are people that I don't want to game with much less be around.

For me it's B2 THE KEEP ON THE BORDERLANDS and T1 THE VILLAGE OF HOMMLET

And I'd just as soon as not foster sociopathic behavior in any games that I run. Especially for new players. If the tone that I set at the table isnt fun because they want to be murder hobos or sociopaths? I'm perfectly fine NOT playing with those people.

Just wanted to put this out there in case it wasn't clear because I keep seeing people mentioning and obviously concerned about the gore... I've read the entire series from beginning to end more than once. So far they're being fairly consistent with the comic. They've changed some things...

Right around 2014 - 2015 in a storyline started by Rick Remender. A villain named named the Iron Nail removed or nullified Steve's Super Soldier Serum reverting him to an old man. Steve named Sam his successor at that point and Sam was Captain America for about two to three years (?) in the comics.
