The only good steampunk games were thief 1 and 2 and arcanum. the rest is steam powered giraffe garbage.
>>726092424That is what steampunk is. That's literally all that steampunk is. "What if normal thing, but with goggles and cogs?" Steampunk is for twats.
>>726094868ok but what it should be if "what is victorian england, but with steam power taken as far as it can go"
>>726092424My ideal steampunk would be closer to the movie Steamboy. Shame most steampunk anything, games included, are kind of just the aesthetic and none of the worldbuilding or cool stuff that goes along with it.
>>726095043Steam power was taken as far as it can go, that's why it was superceded. Steampunk is also the reason every drooling retard on the internet uses the suffix "-punk" to mean "aesthetic."
>>726092424steampunk is a fucking stupid genre thats what you get, you deserve it.
Frostpunk's denizens seem to largely be dressed plainly but warmly for the time, besides the setting's hallmark lamps
>>726092424Wayfinder, you're welcome.
>>726095272Steampunk isn't a genre, it's an aesthetic. There are no themes or motifs endemic to it. "What if a guy wore a top hat and goggles" isn't a literary theme.
>Nostalgia on the DSA really fucking mediocre JRPG, but it's steampunk>Thief seriesSteampunk setting but with none of the usual aesthetics.>Steamworld series(Dig and Heist are the best ones)Technically steampunk
>>726092424>Is there a single steampunk video game where the characters don't dress like redditors?If you want Victorian style in a fictional world without cartoonish excess, there are Bloodborne and Dishonored as two obvious options. Neither are purely Victorian all of the time, but they largely intersect with the period and they take their settings seriously.
>>726095472Ok I retract my statement to "steampuink is a fucking stupid aesthetic thats what you get, you deserve it" fucking retard.
>>726095472what is the jules verne literary theme called
>>726095779Speculative fiction. Jules Verne wrote about steam powered machines because it was the modern tech of the era, not because he was writing faggy alt history.
>>726092424Steampunk emulates the victorian era. Guess how they dressed back then, moron.
>>726094519Absolutely gatekept
>>726092424what does corny steampunk have to do with reddit
Is there a single steampunk video game where the characters don't dress like steampunk?That's pretty much what you're asking, Steampunk is inherently Reddit and is impossible to remove or else it wouldn't be Steampunk.
>>726094868you are english and let pakis overrun your country and rape your women, why should anyone care about your opinion?
>>726095258>Steam power was taken as far as it can go, that's why it was supercededNo it wasn't. It was superceded because we found something better. If we never found anything better, it would have been taken further.
>>726096886Fedoras or something i guess.
>>726096669>>726095779The Nautilus is 100% electrical. Chapter 11 is literally called "All by Electricity"
>>726096913what would a de-reddit-fied steampunk look like
>>726096913>Steampunk is inherently Redditwhat does this mean?
ask chatGPT instead of shitting up thhhis wonderful board
>>726097380its popular
>>726092424>faggy theme setting is faggyWow really?
>>726097448Steampunk isn't really popular, not anymore at least. When was the last time it was featured in mainstream media?
Is New Arc Line any good?
