Wow.. yes.. major difference.

Star Wars universe = unless you're a Jedi, a Sith, or a politician, you live a really god damn mundane life. You'll probably die too, because there are constant intergalactic wars where entire planets and solar systems are destroyed. Also, exploration doesn't seem to be a key focus. Not much exciting and new to explore.

Star Trek universe = utopian society for humanity. Join Starfleet and help explore the universe. You don't need to be a 'special person' (ie. have the Force) to take part in the exciting future.

I was referring the UNIVERSE aspect. Not the difference between Star Wars and Star Trek! I figured You guys would catch that.

[–]siciro 0 points1 point ago

So you were referring to the fact that "Universe" is the literal one we live in? Then you were incorrectly assuming that the use of the word Universe in that "would you rather"meant a physical Universe. It has different meanings. They were using the "sphere of interest, activity or experience" meaning of the word.

Until Skywalker found the Jedi he was a freaking slave. Wesley Crusher lived on a starship and later became an officer. Holy crap people 81%

[–]TooSmalley 0 points1 point ago

Even though the likeliness of being a Jedi is damn near zero people would live in a universe with the chance of being one vs jumpsuits in some utopia
