With TTRPGs, balance is sometimes in the hands of the GM. I'm working on a system for some super-not-exactly-hero shit which I want to run in the vein of Misfits where I don't care if you're virtually indestructible physically. Someone with mind-control powers can still fuck your entire life up.

It wouldn't work for some groups, and some GMs couldn't make it work. Mind-control powers can take away player agency to a degree your players have to be able to roll with. It's hard to make a game you really want to play or run that works for everybody.
