    The smug smarmy one-liner spouting jackass with a heart of gold has been around since long, long before the MCU, stupid zoomer.

      You have missed the point entirely you senile oldgay. The archetype you're referring to was almost always a singular character, and bounced off of more serious characters so that his quips and jokes would land or provide levity to heavier situations. MCU-tier of this is when nearly all of the characters, including the "serious" ones, have smarmy attitudes, constantly crack jokes or quip unnecessarily, and undermine otherwise serious scenarios with out of left field humor that adds nothing and rather serves to detract.

      in marvel films everyone does it all the time though
      similarly, if your players do this once in a while, it's fine
      if they do this all the time without regard for context it's going to get grating pretty fast, especially if they don't have any other kinds of jokes

      This only works if the person writing the character has some skill and is actually funny themselves, which (You) and (You)r players are not.

            If you had any games you'd know there are NEVER 100% SUPER SRS games. Every game devolves into in-jokes and shitposting eventually, even shit that gets incredibly dark.

          Funny because this is exactly what you're doing by making vague complaints about the MCU whenever something unrelated annoys you because you saw other people get a positive response to complaining about MCU

          Not OP but you're really reaching there bro.

I feel as though the way you play them right now clashes with the overall tone Im trying to convey in the game. Maybe when this campaign is over, or if someone else would like to trying DMing, we could try a more lighthearted game."

      Rapid fire shitty - 4 charisma MCU-esque quips delivered ad nauseum isn't fun

        Anonymous

        yeah this
        few people get mad because there are sometimes jokes (sometimes they get mad because a joke hits a sore spot or undercuts a serious moment but that's a different issue)
        it's easy to get mad if everyone is competing to get off a funny badass quip every other turn
        "so THAT just happened"
        "he's right behind me isn't he"
        "you have an army? we have a barbarian"

        it's the same as people who quote monty python instead of having a personality, the relevant trend is just shifted by 40 years

          They don't which is why it is always radio silent after one of these quips, sometimes even follow up with an muffled explanation of reference. They're just constantly gunning for the quotable, green text, viral d&d moment, duds be damned.

    This is how most tabletop games go in my experience. Even when you have a serious and fully engaged group, there will be times where they will break tone to go on a marvel/monty python-esque digression. It's kind of inevitable in this hobby.

    Maybe someone has had different experiences. But I've DMed for/played in over a dozen different games with different groups and they all had this issue to some degree.

    At least they know how to play the game, I have to constantly deal with that type of player while they don't even know the basics of combat strategy like "don't get surrounded"
