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.
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.
And I'm guessing that was in the 70's and 80's NYC as now it's a VERY different city as it was then. Nowhere as dangerous or exciting as it was in the 70's and 80's. It's ALL pretty bland now.
All of this reminds me of the stories I've read from black men who served in WWII how they witnessed German POW's being treated better than they were. And how a many of them, even in uniform, retuned home to be victims of harassment and lynchings.
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet but what Bucky does in that second episode is pretty great without shining a huge light on what he's doing.
When he takes Sam to see Isaiah Bradley it shows he's been listening to Sam. He's upset with him about not taking the mantle but he's trying...
I hear you and you're right about this part. Most times theres too many other tasks directly related to the work to be done. However I'm going to say that managing an IT project is going to be different than managing a publishing project. And yes the end goal is delivering the project to the...
In the case of ENWORLD, Morrus and company don't ban these people and that's their prerogative. But that doesn't come without consequence either. I've been a member here for almost 20 years. But I havent posted regularly here over the past 9 or 10 years because I know that this is not a "safe"...
Even if you DON'T find anything on an initial/casual search and something comes out LATER (which is not the case here) being ready for damage control is also important.
Is it fair to the person who has the accusations leveled against them? Maybe not. But it's not my responsibility to assess...
It's not difficult to define at all.
If the project creator/project manager vetts this person and discovers that they are an accused sexual predator or someone with a history of pretty open racism or a history of sexual harassment at public events like say gaming conventions and THEY make the...
Yeah Im pretty familiar with the source material owning a fair amount of the single issues as well as all of the hardcover trades.
It is a VIOLENT and GORY series. And honestly I knowing what comes later on in the series I don't know how short of several AVENGERS: ENDGAME level (in terms of...
I guess we're going to have to agree to disagree. As the project creator / manager it's kind of my responsibility to make sure that the project team in question is okay working with other team members who's very public actions my tarnish their reputations by association. While your concern is...
Luke...Luke Crane? Is that you?!?
I used the word abuser not because he committed a crime or should be charged with one. I used the word because this was someone who marketed himself as safe and promoted safety and inclusiveness at TTRPG tables and within the community at large.
What he did on...
Koebel is free to produce something in the RPG sphere if he wants to.
No one is stopping him from doing so.
However being linked with him on a project is toxic. Creators/writers SHOULD KNOW if they are working on a project with someone who is perceived as toxic.
If you're going to give him...
Yeah the g-forces knocked him out during the fall. There was also the matter of VIsion's shot KO'ing the power in Rhodey's suit so any mechanism to trigger a parachute would have had to have been activated manually. And when there's no power going to the suit is it possible to even move to...
