I’m curious what users feel makes a great sci-fi story. What elements do you feel “make or break” the story specifically where sci-fi is concerned? For me, I really enjoyed the Expanse series, as it feels like there’s a sort of “believability” to it all. The authors make everything seem very realistic, even if some of the descriptions and physics are made up.
What is it about your favorite sci-fi books and shows that make them your favorites?
I agree that plausibility plays a huge part. Even though it’s sci-fi, I think it helps when we can imagine the story actually happening, even if it’s highly imaginative and “far-fetched” for reality as we know it.
