Hard science fiction often has a lot of complex scientific concepts. If you're not into science or find it difficult to understand, it can be a turn - off.

Hard science fiction typically requires a lot of attention to detail regarding scientific principles. It might feel like you're reading a textbook at times. Also, the focus on hard science can sometimes overshadow the characters and the story, making it less engaging for those who prefer character - driven or plot - focused stories.

The jargon. There's so much technical jargon in hard science fiction that it feels like reading a science textbook at times. I want to be entertained, not educated about advanced physics or biology when I read fiction.

Hard science fiction just doesn't appeal to me. Maybe it's because it requires a lot of concentration to understand all the scientific theories in it. I like fiction that I can relax and enjoy without having to think too hard about science.

Soft science fiction could be a great alternative. It still has some scientific elements but focuses more on the social and human aspects related to those scientific concepts.

Well, if you don't like hard science fiction, you might enjoy science - fiction - lite. These are stories that have a bit of science - fictional elements but not too much of the heavy - duty science. Also, dystopian fiction can be great. It often has a science - related backdrop but is more about society and human nature. And don't forget about adventure - based science fiction that focuses on the journey rather than the science details.

It's unlikely. Dune is deeply rooted in science fiction concepts and world-building. Without a fondness for the genre, you might find it hard to get into the story and its elements.

The reason why they disliked science fiction was probably because such novels usually contained a lot of scientific elements, but they often did not conform to one's understanding and imagination of the real world. Perhaps it was because science fiction was often too sci-fi and did not match one's personal life experience and perspective. However, if you liked science fiction, you might like those that explored the future and technology.
