@hideki I like the old gods in WoW

@orekix @hideki Read hard scifi. You'll see years of thinking condensed into a book form. It's better than movies or games, since words are a better medium than visual media, impossible things can be described but never shown or heard.
"You see a circular square, it glows black. Looking at your feets, you notice they cast a white shadow."
Just mashing words together is often enough to make something slightly interesting.

@asterope @orekix nice, do you have some recommendations i can look for?

@hideki @orekix Not exactly the hardest of sci-fi but here's some books I still remember titles of:
- "Sector General" by James White
- "Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card; And all other books in its universe (in the release order). I have most of those books in epub format on mega.nz if you want.
- Really anything from Stanisław Lem.
- "Accellerandum" by Charles Stross
- "The Reality Dysfunction" by Peter F. Hamiltion; and the rest of the book in the series. This one is more like space opera, but where I'll get biotechnological space ships (and habitats too) and I still remember a lot of images from these books, I loved them.
- "The Engines of God" by Jack McDevitt; archeology in space; and also why that alien civilization was going back in progress every x years, why are there destroyed imitations of structures on the moon of yet another dead alien civilization? It's one big puzzle, I love it.

And I really wanted to share more, but I can't remember nor find the title of those stories I still remember. I'll just quickly describe what I've forgotten:
- At the beginning of the story the main character notices buildings in an unnusual spot, she asked some old lady about it she told her that it's probably that darn elven building techniques that can raise skycrapers in weeks. It wasn't that though. Actually it was a part of an endless city, spanning across all civilizations and possible architectures, outside of normal space and time. And it also slowly turns you into the same stuff the city is made of.
- A story about a boy who was a sloth. Then he met a girl and they banged a lot, she promised him to bang him if he betters himself, so the boy starts actually caring about himself. One day he overhears his parents talking about that slut they hired to motivate their son. He was so mad he decided to leave the planet, and to do that he used that programs a friend of his gave him recently - normally he wouldn't be able to leave the planet, and bypassing systems is higly illegal. But this program was more advanced than anything, and helped him to do a lot. Somewhere else there was a colony embracing for the arrival of the corporation that sent the people there some generations ago and wanted to collect resources. The corporation was ancient at this point, and barely making profit - which wasn't their goal. The same corporation recently started packing people into big colonization ships that they sent trought one time use massive gates, that become higly iridiated after use, they wanted to spread humanity as much as possible. A woman at that colony is telling stories about an space empire long ago. And also, this AI from the beginning, is actually a part of a "brain" from an alien species from that empire from the tales - now so old, they become sentient rocks (apparently the peak of evolution). And some more, but I can't fucking find that book's title.

God fucking dammit, I should be paying more attention to the titles of books I'm reading.

@hideki @orekix sorry for the wall of text. I was frustrated for years about this. I love sharing amazing things with people, but without a name I literally can't and it weights on me.
