Is it possible to sell just as well (specifically, have the same level of emotional activation to create engagement) if there is still a source of tension in the plot but ultimately the outcome of the story is positive?

Maybe people don’t believe the positive outcome is possible?

Or they just didn’t think the positive ones would get butts in seats.

human ideals and scientific innovation are starting to get on the same page

Stopping there? 

Give us some examples  :-)

Sometimes I imagine that the "good outcomes" are in there, it's just not worth the story's time. eg, all the immense niche cultures/societies in megalopolis cities like Blade Runner's LA or Star Wars' Coruscant. By virtue of its size, it can *only* function if there's also actually positive humanity in there elsewhere.

Not out of the woods yet but yeah, optimistic

Not sure if it's ironic or expected that the Farcaster name comes from an author that is not an offender though.
