Re: Science or Fiction?

Yes, I get what you're saying, and most futuristic society games do tend more towards science fantasy. While those are interesting for their setting and possible RP opportunities, I'm looking for one that explores more "possible" science theories and situations than hack n' slashing in a futuristic setting.

I'd be interested in a mud that had the science of constructing a light saber, but as its own world, I mostly have no interest in playing that anymore. Not that I think you were recommending a Star Wars mud, but I'm just trying to further your example.

I agree. That's what I'm not looking for really unless there's a lot of "probable" science behind it.

For example, I'd love something where I was like "Okay, I've managed to obtain a nuclear device. Now I want to go detonate it in a nebula. What happens?"
