 Fantasy should be only set during the Middle Ages, anywhere else wouldn't make sense.

I agree that fantasy in the Middle Ages is the most interesting, as that is my favorite type of roleplaying. Yet, I have to disagree with you about it not making sense anywhere else. As I stated above, if the fantasy world was in the Middle Ages, why couldn't they have progressed to an era similar to the Renaissance, or Age of Exploration, or an Industrial Age, or a Modern Age, or a Space Age? Fantasy doesn't have to make sense, doesn't have to be logical, doesn't have to be reasonable. That is the whole point of fantasy. It's the beauty of it. Fantasy can be anything at all, completely up to the molder's imagination. Fantasy isn't limited to Elves, Dwarves, Orcs, etc, all in a Middle Ages setting. Ir could be about the Charakoser(a word I literally just made up), a species that have thirty tentacles and ten heads, with telepathic abilities. They could be in a futuristic setting, with spaceships and the like. Even though it usually be classified as Sci-Fi, it is still fantasy. Science Fiction is exactly what the name implies, fiction that implicates science. Fantasy is anything and everything. Fantasy is imagination itself. Therefore, you can not argue that it can only be in a Middle Ages environment.
