Thread: Would you consider xenogears a fantasy plot or a realistic(but futuristic plot)

  1. #1

    Default Would you consider xenogears a fantasy plot or a realistic(but futuristic plot)

    xenogears doesn't quite seem like a fantasy plot because the characters in xenogears talk and act alot more realistically than in say the final fantasy games. But it is not necessarily dealing with things that are taking place in our own present time either.

    So what would you consider xenogears as being. A fantasy plot or a realistic plot.

    Sci-fi is a form of Fantasy fools.

    What the hell is wrong with RPG players to not know that Sci-Fi is a form of fantasy? I swear to God that know one knows...well except this thread maker. I commend you!

    So by saying it is a Sci-fi plot you have unknowingly called it a Fantasy plot.

    Are you asking if something like Xenogears is realistic? Not really, but then again, it does not take place on Earth.
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    What are you talking about? They talk more or less the same way.

    You don't think I know that? However, fantasy and science fiction are two different subgroups and should be categorized thusly to avoid confusion.

    Not the -Abel-, the Solarians. They talk a lot differently than the -Lambs-, possibly because they take too much -Drive- and their -Minds- are -Toasted-.

    when I said that the characters talk and act much more realistically in xenogears I meant that they kind of deal with much more realistic issues (and respond to those issues much more realistically) and interact with eachother much more realistically than most characters in most rpg's (specifically final fantasy games) interact with eachother and respond to their environment.

    No they are not. Fantasy is not a sub group. Sci-Fi is though. Sci-fi is a sub group of Fantasy.

    Dictionary.com is a bunch of hacks anyway.
