Sometimes, people ask what's so cool about steampunk? What's the draw?
I'll tell you, friend: STYLE!
This... THIS is what's cool about steampunk!

What about a Space Opera Noir setting? No, I don't mean "trench coats in space", I mean the darker and edgier school of the New Space Opera:
| Quote: | | Space Opera Noir is a term utilised to discuss one of the new schools of the more classic Space Opera subgenre of speculative fiction or science fiction that evolved during the late 20th and early 21st century. Its name is derived from the traditional science fiction term for tales regarding space ships, and from cinematic term film noir. A form of hard SF heavily influenced by the emergence of Cyberpunk, space opera noir continues to emphasize dramatic adventures and exotic settings of the classic space opera genre, and maintains the use of 'harder' science in its story telling that is traditional in the "New" Space Opera, but if it differs, which is debatable, it does so in its darker plot lines, and its frequent emphasis on dark settings and/or morally questionable characters or situations. |
