I Hope this is the right place to put it, sorry mods if it isn't. But as an aspiring writer I thought it would be good to know reader opinion on a topic that I have some discomfort with. I personally feel that without swords Fantasy losses something Wax and Wayne honestly surprised me with how good it was, I thought I would have to pull myself through it, I mean wizards with guns sounds weird, (admitandly not as weird as eating metal, but no-fantasy at least). I took a poll not too long ago on how people felt about the Cosmeres advancing technology and mostly got a result of: 'yes I want this.' So as I want to write a massive multi-realm style fantasy not unlike the cosmere is this be something I should be doing?
To clarify I have plans to handle the advancing tech but is fusing magic and tech something I have to do?
