just in the sense that the story isn't remotely concerned with it, it's set dressing to what was a fantasy story all along.

not that I'm expecting an engineering treatise but like, you could plop star wars down in a High Fantasy setting with *zero* friction. laser swords become swords, space ships become ship-ships, X-wings become cavalry, droids become golems, holograms become magic mirrors, death stars become Evil Volcano Death Rituals, data drives become secret runes, wizards knights stay wizard knights. it's not about ~the future~ or science in any way, it's about magical adventures.

Does a story have to be focused on tech to be sci fi? I thought the only essential difference between sci-fi and traditional fantasy was the setting

[(Anonymous)]

If the only difference between sci-fi and fantasy were set dressing, then hardcore SF fans wouldn't ghettoize fantasy as feminine drivel.

[cbrachyrhynchos]

Pretty much. Then there's the "hard science fiction" fetishists who reduce the "fiction" part to "pot-fueled speculation about what's in Popular Mechanics last month."

[diet_poison]

It's hard for me to take that viewpoint seriously, though...
