Podcast is Called : ASN Humans Are Space Orcs , HFY and other stories
--------------
This Story is Classified as HFY or Humanity Feck, Yea , but what does the Mean?
-------------
HFY is a story/series that takes a “human element” in either humanity or an “other” (race/species or object) that exists in a “setting” (future or other world/universe) with varying levels of culture, technology, society and history that help show in some shape or form the potential good or bad for humanity’s race/culture. In These stories Humans are often referred to as Human, Humanity, Deathworlder, Hellwolder in reference to the human planet of origin , Earth. This planet is seen by most of the universe as a place where only death and chaos can survive.
-------------
Taken from the FAQ of the r/HFY subreddit.
Humans Are Space Orcs (HASO) or Humans Are (Fantasy Race) Are used as a guide when writing.
In these Stories we normally View humans like the other races view orcs in a Fantasy Novel. We (Humans) share the same characteristics and personalities as orcs. Humans are normally treated as the outsiders and barbarians. Humans tend to be underestimated as well in these stories. Unlike Humanity Feck Yea , these don't always put a positive spin on humans\humanity sometimes looking at the darker side of human and humanity from the perspective of aliens.

Wait at the end of Humanity United the story used 'we hoped to never see humanity united again' with past tense that means something caused humanity to unite again

@stevenswenson7041 Жыл бұрын

Well you could interpret it that way Hoped can be a future imperfect or a perfect past in English. If the author wanted to be clear and your interpretation was the intent the phrase 'had hoped' ( Past Pluperfect ) would be used.

This theme is pretty much on the money. Presented with an external threat, even warring humans are likely to put aside their differences, perhaps even permanently.

It's the "only I'm allowed to tease my brother" mentality. We all may disagree on something, but we all agree we are human and Earth is home, and no one fucks with our home.

@@raptorep hell we may not even all agree on what’s actually harming earth. I know plenty people who deny climate change and the extinction rate generally going up every year, but even they wouldn’t sit back and deny the reality of the situation if it was the actions of another species that harmed our planet. In that way it’s just as much “it’ll be our failure that kills our planet, never your victory” as it is, “no one fucks with my brother but me”

Whenever I listen to stories about how humanity sacrifices themselves for the galaxy or unite together and stop fighting amongst themselves when faced with a common threat it sends shivers down my spine and goosebumps up my arms.... So much potentiation if we just worked together alas most of it is wasted.

@raptorep Жыл бұрын

I wouldn't say wasted, our diversity in thought and culture provides a diversity of progress and development. A truly united culture and thought leads to stagnation and ridged thinking, such a culture would be impossible to look at issues from different perspectives and angles. Only seeing what the rest expect to see. Look at NPCs in the media, all saying the same things in only slightly different ways across channels, the exact same talking points and bias.

This reminds me of SCP 1762 "Here be dragons". In SCP 1762, there's a box filled with friendly entities that resembled dragons made of origami. The paper dragons were very friendly and playful until an event, a war, with unknown entities render them extinct. Kinda similar to what happens in the first story

@mortarion9813 Жыл бұрын

To be fair they technically aren't extinct in that SCP. A good number of _other_ species went extinct in the war to defend humanity's Room, but the Dragons themselves (along with a number of survivors from different races and species) were relocated after burying humanity's Room on Fantasy's side.

@DanteSanada Жыл бұрын

The last story has me imagining a battlefield on some distant planet, humans fighting humans, when every soldiers com lights up or buzzes to life with the words "Sol is lost" and every one of them dropping or lowering their weapons. Every one of them giving each other this knowing, pained look, and then pulling back from the planet, their fleets mixing, and returning to the cradle of Humanity in silence.

Twist on story 1 was obvious early. Tried to make the new species sound like humans but went out of the way of saying name, which gave it away

@davidhenderson3400 Жыл бұрын

i also though the new race was humans and did not find out until the end it was not humans. Humans were the old race that lived within the Blighted Arm. Humans had sealed themselves off the the rest of the galaxy not for the protection of themselves from the galaxy but the protection of the galaxy from them.

@MrGoesBoom Жыл бұрын

Only at 6:29.....so far I'm thinking it's 50/50 odds that humans are either the new enthusiastic race...or the one race of myth that resided in the Blighted Arm. Or both and one is a lost colony of the other

Story #2. And then there was one less species in the galaxy after that. Wonder what their name was, it was never said. They got erased without the rest of the galaxy ever knowing who they were so I guess they will not be missed.
