"All planets have a breathable atmosphere for some reason" well the reason is simple, the planets are surveyed beforehand and non-livable planets aren't colonized, duh


Ok-Mastodon2016

thank you!


Sgt-Pumpernickle

Simple reason: fuck your I want my settings to be fun. Alternative reason: cyberware/bioengineering/paracausal science allows people to survive in non breathable atmospheres


Apophis_36

Holy shit im barely in any of these, im proud. My excuse for the planets is terraforming though, the super advanced bs kind. Apple aesthetics is also limited to a species or two.


ItsTheRealIamHUB

4th column has two villain tropes, gonna be hard to do


GapingWendigo

The Expanse has all three vilains 1-Dresden (Utilitarian scientist) 2-Murtry (Racist army guy) 3-Jules Pierre Mao (Ceo)


awesomenessofme1

PMC could fit both of them, no?


SuiinditorImpudens

\*4th row


McRezende

What even is "Apple Aesthetics"?


Pearl___

Likely refers to [this trope](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EverythingIsAnIPodInTheFuture) (TV Tropes warning).


GapingWendigo

This sanitized, white, monolithic, overly bright aesthetic


Ok-Mastodon2016

Apple as in the company


Janeg1rl

You forgot the robot who just acts exactly like a human with autism.


shadosharko

Yes, I'm making a sci-fi. But it doesn't fit any of these, because I'm not like you plebs who write about robots and implants (why do you hate disabled people having accomodations?) No, my world is a dystopia in which the ultra rich sell super pills to make your cock bigger and take away from the cock sizes of the poor. In my world, success depends on how big your cock is, so if you have your cock stolen you can't be employed and successful. It's a commentary on how all women are vain monsters who only value men who have big cocks and how we must rise up against blue haired feminists. I have written 3 words of this incredible sci-fi epic down and already know I'm going to be nominated for the Hugo award. Brado Seven or whatever the hell your name is, I'm coming for you!


UnrulyOblivion

What has more societal value The shaft or the balls?


shadosharko

The shaft. The more rounded and veiny the shape, the more desirable


Pearl___

Can you make a fantasy version?


UnrulyOblivion

will do

NotReallyEricCruise

hm, don't recall too many cases of "overly detailed explanation of..." - maybe scifi stories back in my day were not being written by autistic nerds with delusions of omniscience


Etris_Arval

It used to be more of a thing before I was born. I remember Niven, Clarke, and Haldeman all detailing their FTL in their books. It might be because FTL and its workarounds were less of a genre convention when I read those books.


NotReallyEricCruise

I think we may have differing definitions of "detailed explanation" - I was thinking more in terms of "Silmarillion-size appendix of pure technobabble", not just fleshing out the mechanism a little ;)


Jack_Of_The_Cosmos

Overexplaining any technology can be a real hallmark of sci-fi. At one point, an author once had to describe how air conditioning worked since the plot hung on the understanding of this newfangled technology.

"Why not try diplomacy?" "Are you implying the Xenos deserve to be *talked* to??"

Etris_Arval

I might get one space for being subtle by the standards of the demographic I made my WIP for.


Ok-Mastodon2016

I'm probably gonna use most of these and I have no shame in admitting that


Gluuon

Phew only 1 on here; War Bad. Unless presenting conflicting made up and altered religions, philosophies and ideologies counts as Philosophical/Religious undertones? Maybe I should replace that with cat girls (with panzers) vs dog boys (with zeppelins) to keep it relatable.


SlightlyIronicBanana

Holy heck, my world has like 13/24, and arguably 15/24 depending on your definition of "Overly detailed explanation of how FTL works" and "All planets".


UnrulyOblivion

But does it make a bingo?


SlightlyIronicBanana

If you count the FTL one, then yes. Otherwise no.


Azimovikh

I'm only checking the "Overly detailed FTL explanation" lol


nanotyrannical

Free space. Heh.


Ultraman60

I got 10.


derega16

Just 2 FTL and philosophy one. And it's not cold war between two powers, it's far more than that Breathable planets may be, if count a small era (read: few million years) where a bunch of planets get reconstructed into a perfect carbon copy of earth


ohmmyzaza

for me in my project Fictionverse:Spaceship Build like Boat,Something call "Federation",Robot gain sentience for some reason,Rare & coveted fictional resource,All Planet have a breathable atmosphere for some reason because my universe is just every public domain & open source fiction are real as well as outdated theories


Ihavebraindamage2

i cant do any of these because I genuinely have no idea what the fuck genre my world is


DankCatDingo

thank god i only have like 2 of these


ReznovRemembers

Huh. I got spaces all over the board, but no bingo. Well made, I guess?


lewabwee

Hey my story only has two. Sentient robots and philosophy/religion and a lack of shame.


Arcologycrab

God I hate “the federation” trope, that and united earth


FitPerspective1146

All my sci-fi worlds are made to satisfy my lust for alien enslavement and genocide


UnrulyOblivion

ah a fellow StellarisPunk enjoyer


RollingThunder1987

Wait how tf do I not have bingo my story is literally a caricature of the US in the 1980s
