I have been cautioned against blending: - Traditional fantasy elements _Such as magic systems and exotic, less plausible creatures (on a scientific level - magic tends to explain away these beasts)_ - Traditional sci-fi elements _Such as advanced technology and civilizations amidst the stars._ I have taken it upon myself to harmonize the two in my current worldbuilding project. I know I cannot be the first. I love the creativity found in both, and it is going well so far. I have been exploring the potential for humanity with both tools at their disposal. (Magic and science, essentially) **Why do people advise to stick to one or the other?** I encountered this on a video specifically dealing with magic systems, but he did not elaborate. _Posted this first on Worldbuilding, and was instructed to try it here. My apologies, still green to Stack._
