You're playing a game centred around assassination with a group of complete strangers. That sounds pretty intimidating; though to date all players have been good humoured, non-psychopaths.
Con Difficult to play online
While there may be some workarounds, the original release did no support any online multiplayer due to so few having internet back in 1993.
