What the title says, I’m tired of the trope where humans are the least advanced in the universe.
I’d like to read something different where we’re the more advanced ones (not necessarily the most advanced). As an example I quite enjoyed the Ender’s Game sequels and the angle of us being the more advanced ones was quite interesting.
Do you have any recommendations?
I’d watch star trek if i can skip the old ones. I’m sorry die hard star trek fans but the cgi in those times is just way too terrible for me. I’m sure i can maybe skip to the new ones and just spoil the older shows for myself to get the jist though.
Edit: wait are we talking books or movies/shows? I come from the (everything) fediverse section my bad
In their defense, it was pretty hard to do good Computer-Generated Imagery without computers… 😉
Ye you got a point 😆
You can watch Star Trek: Strange New Worlds easily without watching the old ones (I only watched a few episodes of the older ones when I was young).
I also recommend The Orville if you’re into Seth MacFarlane’s type of comedy
Honestly I recommend it even if you aren’t into his comedy. It’s a bit thick in the first half of the first season, but it becomes a decent sci-fi show in general past that point.
The Orville was the best new trek until strange new worlds
I love the Orville! Reminds me of farscape.
The post was about books, but I realize I should’ve mentioned it in the title. But hey, I’m not one to turn down a good sci-fi show or a movie!
