I liked the premise of a lot of these stories, and the writing style was immersive and engaging. I enjoyed the cross-genre playing, but I think most stories fell on just the wrong side of trying to do too much at once. There was also a bit more focus on superhero stories than I expected, which just aren't my thing. I liked the stories in general, just wish the worlds they're set in were a smidge less ideologically cluttered.
