I wish it was less opera and more space because the period of time relative to a civilization's development is really interesting (i.e depicting a civilization that is not quite there yet regarding capacity for interstellar travel but is advanced enough to effectively colonize the immediate surroundings of the host star system). Alas, I can more or less stand the shitty romances and bromances inbetween the cool space stuff.

less opera?

so i guess they need less of the steely-thewed infallible granite-jawed hero rescuing the simpering woman from the hideous aliens thing, and more of the flying-ships-about-in-space thing?

you know i'm being sarcastic, right?

if you let that sort of distinction decide for you, you may as well read nothing. there is someone you don't like who approves of pretty much everything.
