For me it's Solarpunk. I can't get enough of that stuff but there's so little of it
>>
urban fantasy

What the fuck is solarpunk

Cyberpunk that's taken from the zeitgeist of our times (immigration, privacy, terrorism, and climate change/pollution being the issues of the day instead of the80's issues cyberpunk was about) That focuses on being more positive and less cynical than cyberpunk


Think Human Revolution, River of Gods, and the water knife

Is there really that little of that though?

i think the new meme is putting a work in front of punk and calling it a video game genre
>>
>>343009195

Outside of borderlands and starcraft, I guess, which I don't care for yeah. I just want a game in the theme of bebop.

I don't even know if this is a thing but Sugarpunk.

Set in colonial times, with magical sugar.
Plantation Cities, Sugar-Rush Berserkers, Sugar Burns, and Slaves from all the corners of the world trying to escape the City-wide Plantations

A dystopian-colonial brazil i guess
>>
>>343010101
>dystopian-colonial brazil

But colonial Brazil was already pretty dystopian
>>
>>343010205
Super dystopian colonial brazil.

So i've read about Solarpunk and there is no "Punk" to it imo.

Steampunk doesn't have a strong Punk element too so there is that
>>
>>343010472

Is the "punk" the rebellion to the dystopian government?
>>
>>343010472

Idk, caring about the enviornment and not being a consumerist faggot is pretty punk
>>
>>343010739
Yes.

I mean from what i read its a society wide noveau utopia.
Artisans, glass stained solar panels, the union with nature, gender free societies and whatnot(It's a very tumblr setting if i might add)

I mean, i just don't see it the "rebel" element when the whole society in that setting seems to be siding with the "rebels"
>>
>>343011327

Depends on how far along it is. River of Gods is solarpunk and it's very much still a reactionary conservative society. Same with The Water Knife
>>
>>343009336
I'd rather a game with the theme of Outlaw Star. More fun western opera than depressing shit.
>>
>>343011327

What are they rebelling against?
>>
>>343010837
I guess, but the solarpunk setting seems to be something that happened post the anti-consumerist rebellion.

I might be misunderstanding the setting though so there is that.

I want a modern Trigun game

Guys, what's the best /v/punk game?

There's a lot of generic 4chanpunk out there, but I'd like to find something more definitive of /v/punk.

The one TV tropes talks about is basically "post solarpunk" while the one most people seem to be refering to when talking about the genre is things like Overwath where there still is some punking left to do

I don't know, against the patriarcy, non-renewable resources and rampant anticonsummerism is my guess.

apparently the origin for this genre came from tumblr
>>
>>343012342
You've told me everything I need to know to hate this genre forever. Thank you.
>>
>>343011669

I'm okay with that. I'd just be more open to being a bum bounty hunter that has space fights set to jazz than epic pirate treasure hunt.
>>
>>343012342

So it's some neutopia society for tumblr?

K.

And why does OP want this?

Tumblr just likes it, the manifesto is from some dude's blog


Basically it's just ecological cyberpunk, like Blue Planet or Oryx and Crake

I find it amusing considering how tumblr is made up mostly of the kind of people who fall for most of the marketing memes.

Because

>Cool architecture

>Rebelling against the man but not in some edgy faggot way

>Trying to stop the complete destruction of habitable areas

>Climate refugees and surveilance and shit everywhere making things more interesting


I picture a Fallout NV kinda game where an arcology in the flooded swamp that is Miami is under a lot of political tension from various factions and you the player character have to navigate all this stuff and decide weather trying to make the world better for all is more feasible than just focusing on your own people


Game would have a customizable Boat that you use to navigate the swamps and Islands around post apocalyptic Florida

Also qt brown girls at some point I guess
