Greygo Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 You can haggle around any topic if you always trying to find something inaccurate. Read the wiki page about cyberpunk. This game indeed has cyberpunk setting. Probably in mix with something else but we dont discuss cyberpunk here. This is offtopic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaugahn Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I think it best to just call it Science Fiction. If it can represent so many sub-genres then it's inaccurate as you said to just name it by one. Therefore, under the premise of "Science-Fiction" i don't think you draw the line for what's inappropriate at a Harlequin-themed exo-suit and top-hat wielding space and time manipulator. I'd say it's closer to science fantasy right now. It's definitely not full cyberpunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snappin Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 one of vaubans alt helmets is a beret with a fan installed, and people are complaining about a tophat with a dimension installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyberpunk is indeed on-topic because you made it to be when you included it in your original post. Please. Give me examples of "cyberpunk" in Warframe. And i don't mean one or two little things. I want to know why you see Warframe as having so many attributes of the cyberpunk sub-genre that it deserves to be entirely labeled that way.

ElHefe Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) (edited) .. it seems to me the game took a strong turn toward One Piece Nekros because it reminds me of Evangelion's evas. Thank you for posting the montage from One Piece ... I was thinking exactly about that zany but serious bit of animae when I made an earlier post in this thread I also agree with you about Evangelion being instrumental in DE's designs ... Remember the faces of the angels? They look very much like the Grineer face plates And the helm for Unit-01? It has the horn like Excalibur, the flaring at the temples like Loki or Mirage and the skeletal appearance of Nekros There are unmistakable differences between One Piece and Evangelion in terms of dramatic story telling and aesthetic but each was self consistent The same cannot be said of Warframe at this point Edited October 28, 2014 by ElHefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElHefe Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I'd say it's closer to science fantasy right now. It's definitely not full cyberpunk. I agree ... What we can all agree on is that DE has been incrementally moving to broader themes Prima facie, this is not a bad thing BUT having left the core story line so nebulous for so long, DE has inadvertently set themselves up for complaints What DE left as a "placeholder" story has become at least a THEMED story in the minds of many (most?) of the community In the end, it is amusingly ironic to realize that those in the community who never spent much time thinking about the story line and who dismissed inconsistencies and imponderables as "space magic" were RIGHT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know what the tenno or the warframes really are, so how could we possibly know if a frame like that fits in?

(PSN)TerranAxiom87 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I played in beta and didn't bother until the latest update. What's with everyone being multicoloured?. Alot of players appear to either be colour blind or are peacocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePhalanx Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I don't get how people think Nekros is kind of exaggerated. He looks very similar to Nemesis, from Dark Sector, while using the Raknis helm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
