for the same reasoning you give, I pretty much agree about fantasy worlds imlad Send a noteboard - 24/11/2009 10:23:01 PM
They are just too dirty and unclean, not to mention the other crappy conditions that you'd at least witness if not live in.

So yeah, I most definitely prefer Science Fiction settings.

Not in any of the fantasy ones. I would never want to live in the past (or past-like place). No toilet paper, proper heating or means of communication. At least not wildly available. Not even with magic. The fact that being spellcaster can give you all possible convenience doesn't make up for the fact that most people live a very poor condition. And with no canalization. :P

I'd rather live in the future. Someplace like Peter Hamilton's Commonwealth or Iain Banks' Culture. Where immortality is for everyone. And space travel. :D
Death to the Regressives of the GOP and the TeaParty. No mercy for Conservatives. Burn them all at the stake for the hateful satanists they are.
