Fantasy vs. Science Fiction

In Jimmy, these "templates" are not the essence of the series. They are just details. Besides, sci-fi was just beginning at that time, and everything was new^^ оттакота!^^

corporations... a corps?) gray people?))

Well, essentially yes :) I also forgot Zenor... :)

mercenaries?

No, I was wrong, sorry... DiGrizz is kind and selfless.:smile13:
You are the one going to extremes. ;)

well, see? you yourself brought up a "wonderful author" as an example. things are moving, yes

Heh heh he... where is it moving, I wonder?))
I didn't say that all science fiction writers are inept and "let's throw them all out."
*whispering* and Night Watch is also partly sci-fi...

1. why is it easier? correctly, because in the fantasy style, all the features are already known in advance. the path is paved.

The path is paved?... Oh, HONESTLY?;) It's just that everyone has fantasy... take, for example, fairy tales, which are partly a branch of fantasy. Who hasn't read fairy tales? That's why they picked it up, because they were too lazy to dig deeper. And that doesn't mean there are fewer templates in sci-fi.

2. pop! here it is - the truth!!!11 by the way, the first "network" game was the well-known Doom. sci-fi! does the fact that "everyone picked it up" mean that there is a lack of originality and talent among the creators?

See, not everyone picked it up. :p They also churn out sci-fi. How many shooters and other games have been made in the sci-fi style?
Of course, they like to make RPGs in the fantasy style... but there are no more of them. 50/50.:smile36:

3. because it is more difficult to find sci-fi "templates", isn't it? that's what I'm talking about? of course, any style has its own inherent qualities that form its basis, but there are much more of them somewhere. I already said where, and how much more.

Therefore, sci-fi is made with fewer templates.
And the more, the better in any case. If it's a cliché, let it at least have more pieces.

By the way... some of the elements of the most original sci-fi books are taken from fantasy. The dragons of Pern, for example.

P.S. Dragons are everywhere, they will eat everyone.:smile36:
P.P.S. Warhammer is also 50/50 =^^=
