Maybe, but I get it - the genres are different, and the tropes & conventions for them are different as well. I like some fantasy, but I strongly prefer science fiction. It's not a value judgement, one isn't better than the other - I just like reading scifi more than I like reading fantasy, and I wouldn't particularly want a collection that combines the two semi-indiscriminately. (There are stories & novels that mix the two, and those can be very interesting, though.) (Weirdly enough, I play D&D and other fantasy RPGs - but most games set in a sci-fi or modern setting don't interest me as much. Maybe it's harder to suspend my disbelief in Shadowrun when I'm vaguely aware of how hacking works, whereas magic is magic and I don't have to think about how a fireball works unless I want to.) |
