What would be some of the downsides of certain superpowers? ——— Man. There's so many superpowers out there so I'm just gonna narrow it down to telekinesis, telepathy, and shapeshifting (because I think those powers are cool) I feel like with telekinesis, the downside would be the ability to control it yk? Like something if the person is tired and accidently breaks something without realizing it (like a lack of focus!!) And maybe the other downside is that even tho the person can move objects, there's restrictions, like it needs to be in their line of sight or not weigh alot. Telepathy I feel is obvious with its downsides. The person gets no true peace or quiet as their mind is always overwhelmed. They're unable to be surprised by things because reading minds tend to give away stuff. Or in a sad angle, the user might hear something they didn't want to hear Lastly! Shapeshifting! I forgot where I saw it but someone pointed out how shapeshifting can be read as a metaphor for an identity crisis. U can turn into anything and anyone but the downside is that u slowly worry ur losing urself. What do u actually look like? Is that truly ur personality or have u copied it long ago? The user never feels fulfilled, it's a depressing downside Sorry for the long response, honestly I'm not sure if u were asking for specifics so I just went for it
