[QUOTE="kenmarable, post: 7769709, member: 40359"] No, probably more to do with Penny Arcade, their main web comic. Personally, I gave up on it years ago not for the content of the comics themselves but for their reaction to fans who called them out on some jokes. I haven’t followed them for years, and I certainly don’t think they are awful and the worst thing out there. Just, for me personally, their reactions soured me on them at the time, and since then there’s so much other great stuff being created, I don’t have time to follow it all, so I don’t miss it. *shrug* No idea if there’s been any particular other big situations, but I get the feeling that, especially with Penny Arcade and that community, they push some boundaries that are fine with some people and not with others. I do wish them well with this book and am interested to hear more, although it’s likely not in my area of interest. The incident that turned me away was years ago, and I’m sure they’ve matured and learned since then and they seem like decent fellas who do great charity work. As for Aquisitions Inc, however, seems that it is absolutely NOT problematic like that. Haven’t watched them all, but what I saw was light hearted, silly but still action oriented D&D based around an adventuring corporation. Never heard of any problems with AI and I doubt Chris Perkins and Jeremy Crawford would DM them if there were. Just outside of AI and with Penny Arcade, they have rubbed some people the wrong way. *shrug* [/QUOTE]
