Well, that’s part of what’s being touched up.
What makes you say that?
Edited
Thank you ^^
toot braunsteinI mean like how Edward from Cowboy Bebop would be a good voice for Apogee. I wonder about Vee.
You might missed a bit point that i am trying to make, It’s not about the possibility of if steampunk could exists in 19s century. It’s just a style of art that blended of 19s century society and future technology hence why I said “what if robot, cyborg, ufo and stuffs already exists in 19s century” (as for dieselpunk, it’s the blend of mid 20s century and future technology instead) . Yes, Realistically it couldn’t exist, but since fictional isn’t bond with law of physics, and stuffs. It could be done in fictional universe.

We were talking about relation of magic and technology in steampunk, not about culture in the setting.
Though I admit, almost nobody goes beyond confort zone of “XIX century England” when it comes to steampunk.
I mean - Imagine steampunk in Japanese setting. That would be cool.
it’s a big difference between steampunk and dieselpunk, that steampunk steam generally isn’t poisonous choking black clouds of soot. realistically, all steam engines were coal powered for the most part, so steampunk couldn’t have existed even in the 19th century. honestly I don’t think most people realize just how ugly and horrible the 19th century was.
so I feel like steampunk is more like “what if there was an industrial revolution where people cared about keeping things beautiful?” that’s why there are robots and advanced technology, because it’s a world as advanced as our own or more, just one where aesthetics and quality took a much higher priority to planned obsolescence and wealth production. just my opinion, really.
the frouffy clothing they wear is pretty retro 19th century victorian era though, so I dunno.
Well, as far I know. Steampunk is basically “how would you predict a future technology in the past, specificly 19s century”. It’s like those 60-70s futuristic that have like robot, cyborg, ufo and stuff that take place decades even centuries from when the movie published. But instead decades to centuries ahead, it’s more of “what if robot, cyborg, ufo and stuffs already exists in 19s century”. And this why a lot of tech in steampunk are based on steam powered tech. The same can be said with dieselpunk, but instead of 19s century, it’s in the mid 20s century.

Don’t quit your day job
Well it’s been an idea of mine for over a year. I plan on being a writer for the newer generations of MLP and I wanted to get the fan’s work involved. ShinodaGE being an example
I thought steampunk was the artistic rebellion against the “form follows function” attitudes of industrialism, imagining an industry that exemplifies both form and function.
you don’t see distinguished gentlemen wearing clogs and flying around on ox-driven spinning wheels after all.
No, steampunk is “technology first”, magic is an option, not necessity.
The entire point of steampunk is abnormal usage of antiquated technology (steam powered technology) to solve problems in the setting. You can add magic to great effect (like in Arcanum) but settings can survive without it.
Steampunk tend to use magic, in my experience with it.
What?
Steampunk has nothing to do with magic.
I meant magitech. Like exosuits with magical crystals attached to them, or modern looking floating cities.
Steampunk?
Movie pretty much debunks the whole “magic is only possible in equestria”.
Not to mention that in the show time travel/dimension travel is canon.
@redweasel
Magic is also cool.
You know what is cooler? Combination of magic and technology.
Seriously, where are arcane glyphs etched onto surface of ship to increase durability?
Where is magical aura to reduce drag?
Magic still exists, but the problem as I see it is that it’s tied to the land itself, and they are trying to get into space.
the point is technology is cool, and it’s fun to be able to think about cool things that could actually happen, even in the context of a fantasy setting.
I dunno, astropone sounds adorable
