Which of these sounds the most interesting to you?

I have four main fictional universes I'm working on; 3 science fiction, 1 pseudo-fantasy. Which of these settings do you think is the most interesting?

Exodus

The one you have seen me post. Set in the year 2702, humans have dominated galactic politics for centuries and were utterly unprepared for the S'pher invasion. Now, they have one colony left, Exodus, and their war has finally reached it's turning point; the reclamation of Earth.

Hollow

Set inside a Dyson Sphere (Think of that forerunner planet off Halo Wars if you're unfamiliar with the concept), hollow focuses on the four main kingdoms that rule from within a planet and the truth behind how such a world was created- and the reason why ancient markings have been translated to call the place a Haven.

Oculus

Oculus is set in the 2300's- decades ago, the expanding human empire encountered another alien one- the Oculus. Ever since, humans have been confined to the inner Sol System, kept purely because the Oculus want to. Now, a rebellion started by a militant group unleashing a Terraforming Bomb on an Oculus world has started outright war between the two powers.

Final Light

Several hundred trillion years in the future, humans have evolved into multiple species spread out cross the galaxies. However, expansion of the universe long ago accelerated past the speed if light; the only visible star te those of our own galaxy. As te black hole era sets in, the final stars of the Milky Way are dying and the end of the universe is setting in. This is based off if a real predicted scenario called 'Heat Death of the Universe'.

Hollow sounds like the most reasonable, original and interesting story. You won't be drowning yourself in too much scope, and I like the sound of that mystery. You'll be able to create some exotic cultures instead of just spaceship names

Why don't you go ask the 3fail3 forums.

my face when

Rinev · February 03, 2015, 10:10:42 AM

I would say Hollow. I agree with Elegiac that it sounds the most original. Also Dyson Sphere sounds like a vacuum to me.

I would say Exodus but that may be because I've seen/heard the most about it.

Release · February 03, 2015, 12:51:32 PM

Hollow, definitely

clum clum · February 03, 2015, 12:59:20 PM

Final Light, because the universe reaching thermodynamic equilibrum is one of the things I am most interested in.

Exodus and Oculus have been done before.

Hollow sounds interesting.

Final Light is curious.

Jive Turkey · February 03, 2015, 03:32:17 PM

I like Hollow

Mr. Psychologist · February 05, 2015, 05:22:51 PM

Hmm, I do quite like the exodus storyline >.>

I would like to see more about the Final Light one though, it could be quite intriguing <.<
Human evolution/mutation is one of my favourite sci-fi things >.>

Strogger · February 05, 2015, 05:26:09 PM

Well, evolution and genetic modification would have bred many subspecies. But it set in the time when matter itself is beginning to decay into weak energy, and there are only a few stars left burning.

Plus, the lifespan o the civilisation would be in the thousands of years, and they would be able to see the end unfold entirely, as a lack of resources forces their technology backwards and the survivors beginning warring for the control of what little remains.

Also, everything links up. Every universe is connected through ways I've only got a rough idea of. But everything stems from Final Light.

As for human modification, there's a faction that replaced their bodies with machines. Just for the transhumanists out there.

hollow sounds like the most original

go with that

Luis · February 05, 2015, 05:58:20 PM

Hollow

cuneif · February 05, 2015, 05:58:39 PM

Exodus sounds very interesting because it only has 1 colony left.

nosejob · February 05, 2015, 06:57:54 PM

Hollow and Final Light.

And tbh, I think what you're doing here is great. You're passionate about it, and that's something I admire.

Yu · February 05, 2015, 06:59:43 PM

Hollow.
