Soldierwarrior 10/05/19 4:02:43 PM #2:	I picked Medieval Fantasy. As a Dynasty Warriors fan, I was thinking more Chinese Medieval type thing, even though at least some of Dynasty Warriors is based on History. Despite liking XCOM 2 a lot lately, I mostly dislike today's setting with fantasy/sci-fi fantasy. I use games to get away from life and not to get reminded of it. Sci-Fi, with all its futuristic tech, still has enough of the modern day reminders that makes me turn off from it a little. <cite>Soldierwarrior posted [p:928378617] in What is yo...

Mead 10/05/19 4:07:21 PM #3:	I enjoy stuff thats kind of a cross between specific historical periods and fantasy For example I just watched Carnival Row and enjoyed it a lot. Its purely a fantasy story but the setting is very much inspired by London and Europe and I feel like that grounded the story in ways that fantasy tales are sometimes lacking --- More malicious than mischievous <cite>Mead posted [p:928378766] in What is yo...

Aaantlion 10/05/19 4:59:35 PM #5:	The choices are kinda weird. Some are absurdly broad, others overlap, etc. While I'd like to say that I prefer high fantasy, that's a pretty broad umbrella and technically my favorite genre is horror so low fantasy would probably come closer (since it can include dark fantasy) darkwarrior46 posted... Gothic horror (example Castlevania) Cosmic horror (H.P. Lovecraft) Cosmic horror kinda isn't its own thing the way you seem to think it is. And Castlevania is a weird pick for an example of gothic horror. darkwarrior46 posted... Today's setting with fantasy darkwarrior46 posted... Low fantasy Today's setting with fantasy would be an example of low fantasy. Harry Potter, for example, is low fantasy (although it's sometimes referred to as low-high fantasy since, despite taking place in an altered version of the real world, it incorporates an almost-separate world) --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| <cite>Aaantlion posted [p:928380529] in What is yo...

I use games to get away from life and not to get reminded of it. Sci-Fi, with all its futuristic tech, still has enough of the modern day reminders that makes me turn off from it a little. We are on the same boat on this one, probably the main reason I hate Persona, playing a game where you are a student where you go to school, study, have exams and all that. While I want to get away from being a student and I have school and exams and all that crap, not being reminded of it every minute, it immediately turned me off. Basically I should say if I wanted something realistic or reality, I could go outside or whatever, fantasy in full throttle if you ask me. <cite>darkwarrior46 posted [p:928399683] in What is yo...
