Re: Writers: World-building and character designing

[(Anonymous)]

ayrt - Same. I'm not a historian by any means so I figure my standards aren't that high. I just want things to look and sound mostly right in terms of historical details and I don't enjoy it if an author has clearly fudged everything (even really simple stuff) because I just feel... I don't know, cheated somehow. A great story with an eye for historical accuracy is a thing of beauty! Why don't more authors aim for this?

That's great in stories where historical realism is part of the tone the author is aiming for.

But that's not what all stories are doing.

Yeah, I suppose. Though if an author decides to set their story in say, Regency era England but isn't interested in even a semblance of historical accuracy... I'm not going to read those stories. I wish the authors luck, but I view such stories as being pretty pointless.

Yes! If i'm promised an epic tale of pirates on the high seas circa 1740 or something, please don't give me inventions and language and events that happened in 1890! Or, gods forbid, 1900+. *Especially* the language! That's the worst.
