Yeah companies doing shady stuff for profit including harming people would be much more scary. Good thing that’s not reality. Oh wait…
What do you think of the industrialisation aspects in Tolkien’s Legendarium?
Yes, I think today, SciFi / Space Fantasy works best to directly reflect current situations and dangers. It can naturally be constructed in a dystopical way and used as an example for a bad future.
For typical High Fantasy, imo it is way more difficult to pull something like that off, because it is usually closer related to our historical past. For topics like racism, discrimination or other social aspects (life during the plague?) it can still work nicely. But I agree, it’s a delicate matter to not “overdo” it and ruin the escapism.
There are so many kinds of Fantasy, and all art imitates life in one way or another is what I’m saying :)
I think Fiction in general, not just Sci. But regardless, it always depends on the degree imo.
Those poor books 🥲
I always feel it in the Gluteus Maximus :S
No! We have to take action, into …tle!
Just hit it with the bat.
