The Epic	comment	An epic is a long story centered on a heroic character that describes a series of exceptional events, similar to and suggestive of epic poetry. There are numerous epics in fiction and storytelling. Epics are majestic depictions and capture impressive struggles, such as stories of war, adventures, and other efforts of great scope and size over long periods of time. Originally limited to literature and theater, epics have expanded into the visual realm with the advent of film. Variants include: Epic Poem (the predominant form of classical epics) Epic Narrative (modern literary epics, as well as some traditional narratives) Epic Movie (more broadly defined, includes film adaptations of the literary epic as defined here) Battle Epic (sub-trope, when a movie is focused on war or a battle) Some basic criteria:The Epic is A longer-than-average story that... ... Is wide in scope (not just one battle or skirmish, but a country-wide/planet-wide/galaxy-wide war or catastrophe) and... ... Follows one hero, group of heroes or bloodline, who... ... Strive to achieve a particular goal or complete a quest, in the course of which they... ... Commit extraordinary deeds and... ... Have multiple (three or more) separate adventures in the course of their quest or journey and... ...The story overall contains majestic themes (such as good versus evil) that typically represent the values of a culture or a nation. The classic epics had their own guidelines: Starting In Medias Res, usually later having The Hero explain via Flashback How We Got Here. In Greek epics, "Invocation of the Muse": formally asking one of the Muses to help the author live up to the task of doing the story justice, or achieve whatever goal they have in mind for it. Often, a journey to the Underworld. Can be divided into a few different subgenres. The divisions also come in two flavors, Form and Subject (may be subtropes/genres). Both forms can be divided by subject: Heroic (one person, may include companions, but focused on the person) Familial (follows a particular lineage) and National (follows the history of an entire nation, not common) This is a distinguishing characteristic of Space Opera and High Fantasy, in that both are the Epic versions of Science Fiction and Fantasy respectively. Not to be confused with the modern use of the term just to mean "awesome."

And it is not just the conflicts that are grand, so are the effects the characters have and the reveals they face as the very structure of the world as they understand it is upended.

The series is also epic in geographical scope, covering a good chunk of the known world, including a massive empire and multiple smaller kingdoms.

The Epic / int_49a88442	comment	Final Fantasy XIV is unique among MMORPGs in part thanks to its stories, with players assuming the mantle of the Warrior of Light as they, along with the Scions of the Seventh Dawn, fight to save the planet of Hydaelyn from destruction. The base game and each expansion focus on exploits in different regions to accomplish this end, starting with thwarting The Empire's machinations in the continent of Eorzea before moving on to resolving the Dragonsong War in Ishgard, liberating the occupied nations of Doma and Ala Mhigo, and travelling through The Multiverse to prevent the total annihilation of multiple worlds, with the 2021 expansion, Endwalker, serving as the Grand Finale of an epic tale over ten real-world years in the making.

From this, over 100 spin-off and tie-in stories have been written that feature over 54 individual franchises from various different genres ranging from superhero to comedy and horror, both famous and obscure alike. Various stories have been referencing other future threats to the Multiverse, from the Daleks and the Cybermen of Doctor Who, to Freddy Krueger of A Nightmare on Elm Street, Morlun and the Inheritors from Spider-Verse, and even the Anti-Monitor.

The events of the released books, are almost the same, with the difference that the magic is greatly reduced in the show. The foreshadowed final battle between fire and ice happens in the lasts 2 seasons, with the Night King being defeated once for all. House of the Dragon is less fantasy and epic in scale than its parent show, but still adapts a continent-wide civil war known as "The Dance of the dragons" from Fire & Blood. It even ads several magical elements that the original novel did not have, such as Aegon's motivation for conquering Westeros being a prophetic dream about the future conflict with the Others and his descendants role in it instead of being motivated by pure imperialism, and a white stag showing itself only to Rhaenyra, implying she is the rightful heir to the Iron Throne and not her half-brother Aegon.

Several are suggested in the sample campaigns. In Vikings one can replay any saga or make up one's own. There is even a mythic campaign theme in which Loki escapes and threatens to bring about Ragnorak before its time. In Traveller Sword Worlds there is 100 Parsecs which is about the journey of a group of Sword Worlders to set up a new civilization in which the Sword Worlder way of life may be preserved far in the reaches of the universe. One can also do the original founding of the Sword Worlds which is an intensely powerful theme. Intersteller Wars is in a way a "national epic" of the Terran Confederation.

The in-media-res opening, the three adventures, a symbolic journey to the underworld in the last act: it's all there. Christopher Nolan seems to know The Epic like the back of his hand.
