Dartz Wrote:Arguably, violence in stories does not necessarily make it a dystopia.... Neither does pacifism make it a utopia. It really depends on how the story was going.Recent stories - SIRP being a notable exception - glamorize violence. That's dystopian in my books. (It's as if people don't know how to write something that isn't lifted from a FPS or a side-scroller.)
I have decided to at least try to push the pendulum in the opposite direction, and get back to the stated goal of this project.
