Why dieselpunk is so underused in video games?
>>
>>336341247
le steampunk xD is a cancerous weed that choked out all the other ___punk genres
>>
Because it's just an aesthetic.
>>
>>336341247

because no one cares about your niche tumlrcore nonsense.

it's lame familia.
>>
>>336341247
What the fuck even is dieselpunk
>>
>>336341540
like world war 1-2 level tech but gone crazy. IE diesel powered mechs like the pic
>>
>>336341540
>humanity never developed past ~mid-1940s tech-wise
>modern transistors, nuclear fission, jet engines are often treated as "never discovered/invented"
>often deals with themes like isolationism in the "modern" world
Pretty neat idea, but like >>336341314 said, steampunk has killed off pretty much every other _____punk genre with cyberpunk being the exception.

How is that any different from steampunk except you got diesel instead of gears
>>
>>336342062

So the new Wolfenstein?
>>
you've got final fantasy 7
>>
>>336342167
what, no. Fallout is a post apocalyptic version of the really dumb vision of the nuclear powered future from the perspective of the 1950s
>>
Is Dishonored steampunk?
>>
>>336342273
It's so steampunk you can practically feel reddit memes seeping in to your brain when you play it
>>
>>336342273
whalepunk
>>
>>336342273
probably inspired by steampunk but no, the world is powered by some whale oil
>>
If your personal sense of aesthetic can be described as X-punk you should be rounded up into cattle cars and disposed of immediately.
>>
>>336342062
Dieselpunk represents a vision of the future from the era when diesel-based locomotion was the main technological focus in western culture. It's not necessarily about the aesthetic.
>>
>needing to buy into anything -punk

Just get a piercing you faggot
>>
I don't know but Wolfenstein TNO was fucking amazing.

>>336342212
Aren't nazi robots powered by electricity?

I don't like how most of cyberpunk, steampunk, dieselpunk etc. ignroes the "punk" part. Find a new word for anachronsitic technology what-ifs if it isn't combined with a gritty working class anti-establishment and anarchy atmosphere.
>>
>>336343035
How does cyberpunk ignore that?
>>
>>336343035
Cyberpunk IS completely Punk you dummy.
