inspired by x-men.

So I’m watching Alphas.

And I’m enjoying it, even though it’s basically x-men all over again.

The thing I find interesting, though, is that it doesn’t fall into the same problem that Heroes (another notable x-men homage) did - giving the players too much power.

They use the ‘human weakness’ thing in their marketing, but they really internalized the key Marvel rule: people need to be broken, a little bit.

It’s a fun watch.
