  • Anyone saying that DCC is not sci-fi is wrong. I’ll assume you haven’t read it. The ENTIRE STORY is about an Alien syndicate causing the apocalypse on Earth to force humans to play what is essentially a real life video game. It’s run by aliens, and hyper advanced AI. It’s full of real functional science portals. The fantasy elements of the book are artifice for the game. This is some pretty weird gatekeeping. I think people are getting sci-fi and hard sci-fi confused. Just chill out. There is no lack of Sci-Fi in this world, and if you haven’t read DCC you are doing yourself a disservice.

    My dad did this to me once when I was a kid. I was helping bring in the groceries and was carrying as much as I could (which was a lot, but obviously not more than I could handle) and my dad told me it was a “lazy man’s load” that pissed me off pretty badly. I was helping dickhead. I can’t remember almost anything from my childhood, but I’ll never forget that shitty comment.
