Judge Hades Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I think that fantasy has been overdone quite a bit. Science fiction has been neglected somewhat and I would love to see it fully explored as a genre in games and film. By the way Star Wars is fantasy.

thepixiesrock Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Space Opera. Lou Gutman, P.I.- It's like I'm not even trying anymore!http://theatomicdanger.iforumer.com/index....theatomicdangerOne billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.

Spider Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 As with any other thing, you can't judge an entire genre based on what a select sample is contributing to it. Not even when the sample is a majority of contributors. I like the fantasy genre. It has so much potential and there are still lots of things in that genre that haven't been done yet. What they are I can't tell you because they haven't been done. There are a lot of great fantasy writers out there that challenge the borders of the genre with almost every sentence they write. One needs to look no further than Michael Moorcok (stupid language filter) to see an example of that. I will admit that I not overly found of popular fantasy though. I agree that there are a lot of hacks writing in the genre and that a lot of it is just rehashing stories that've already been told in settings that have already been created. That lack of imagination is sad indeed, but it doesn't mean it's a hopeless genre. You just have to look a little harder to find stuff that interests you. (and if you like the stories told in mainstream fantasy, then that's good for you) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
