Message: <blockquote data-quote="Psion" data-source="post: 2301250" data-attributes="member: 172">My ideal SF setting:Somewhat realistic - limit the technobabble and dressed up fantasy. But I like interstellar travel. So yes, gimme hyperspace or wormholes or quantum jumps. Hold the star blades and black hole guns (yes, Alternity, I am looking at you.) Realistic worldgen, 3D starmaps (sorry Traveller, your one true failing), newtonian spaceship travel (do NOT give me spaceship "top" or "cruise" speeds) are all musts.I'd also like multiple alien races, intrigue, and politics. If they are humanoid in appearance, you had better explain it. If they can breed with humans or would even consider having sex with one, you had explain WHY (how they got into space, how we got here, how they were genetically engineered for that purpose, etc.) "Furry" races are of no consequence so long as, like this, they make sense.</blockquote>
