@ Random User:

But I just ignore any bad jokes in Marvel movies. Tho some do make me laugh. About 40% of the time.

@ WC-83:

IMO it's a misconception that one needs to "turn down". Keep the pulse pounding. Think about it. If you keep the hits coming the game always feel like danger and suspense are around every corner. Sure you should be able to relax, but that's what the off button is for. Just turn the game off to calm down. It's not that I hate comedy. It's just that I think when it comes to RPGs and other epic mind-blowing quest-like tales it ruins scenes when character break the fourth wall or make puns or have little giggling moe cute moments. SMH Naw man. It's about the task at hand. What if Salem started cracking wise? What if she started making dry British dead pan witty jokes at her round table meetings? Would the help? No, not to me.

Sure there's times to deepen the characters with nice humane moments. I really liked ME's conversations as they went in elevators or when characters would date each other when you have them in the party all the time from game to game. But that stuff needs to be sparse for me. Save it for when it's not a fight happening and for when it's not a major problem happening.
