Consider how some of the most interesting settings are made by mixing two genres or concepts and making something new out of them. Consider Shadowrun, a blend of High fantasy and cyberpunk or Warhammer 40k, a mix of space opera and Classic Fantasy.
Lets create a campaign setting for GURPS based around the coolest things we can think of. First five posts will be the core concepts of the setting and we can build on it from there.
A space where imagination is a weapon and emotion can be made manifest as a physical property

It's a meat world.
All technology is, was and always has been genetically engineered.
From guns, to vehicles, to medicine, to computers, to spacecraft.
>>52304340
So Geneforge?
>>52304353
I don't know what that is.
But pretty much everything should either be biological, or have been created by biological processes.
titanic robots designed like heroes of legend are common features of armies and major cities
>>52304282
God is a tyrant that rules over creation with an iron fist in an attempt to create a being strong enough to depose him. He constructs a city with a direct connection to heaven where there are a multitude of different cultures and races that exist there due to rare materials that can be scavenged by mounting expeditions through the portal. Each Godkiller becomes a new god, rewrites existence, and finally bored with the ennui of eternity, creates a similar death game for the denizens of their handbuilt universe so they may feel mortal peril without running among their lesser creations.
Using modified music instruments as melee weapons

It's a series of computer RPGs with setting exactly like you're describing. Really bad graphics, but otherwise it's good stuff. I'd recommend starting with Geneforge 5 as it's very good and easy to get into.

So, Evas based on Dynasty Warriors that use instrument weapons to fight a god that encourages them to get even stronger?
That... sounds like a material for the most hotblooded, crazy cool anime setting ever.
I love It
>>52304465
We're all gonna be rich.
>>52304465
oh... ok.
>>52304465
>anime
Western animation 2000AD/Métal Hulant style or bust.
>>52304465
Id say ditch the instruments or have it be a weapon that one faction uses
Some thick petroleum made of the remnants of the previous iteration of the city is the main source of power and drugs.

> meat world
You mean this:

The setting's church believes that explosions are sacred.
The pope is commonly called Father Bomba
>>52304555
>The setting's church believes that explosions are sacred.
so, Islam?
>>52304559
got a chuckle out of me, but let's not turn this into a /pol/ thread
The fashion and language of the entire setting is purpetually stuck in the early 90's
>>52304625
That's not rad at all
>>52304465
Can we switch instruments for weaponized imagination (ala weaponized AT fields)
>>52304381
DRAGONS DOGMA GET OUT REEEEEEEE
>>52305962
Honestly it's a kind of cool idea, but I always imagine eventually one of these people won't be a hero who eventually wants it to be over, one day its a psychopath that when he realizes the cycle decides to end it all
>>52304340
Are you thinking about something like this?

Reminds me of the Venusians from Battle Angel Alita.

>one offhand comment saying anything remotely negative about CULTURAL ENRICHMENT
>woah guys let's not get all /pol/ up in here this is supposed to be a safe space!
I want Tumblr to leave
when deers fight their antlers get tangled together and both become unable to move. if they're lucky, one will break the other's neck, wait for it to decay enough that it can sever the head, then walk around with that in front of its face. if not, they stare eachother in the face while waiting for death by thirst and starvation. predators may kill and eat one while the other watches, still attached.
this is the most metal thing I've ever heard of and it is someone's god of war.
unrelated: thuggees are also quite hardcore.
>>52310424
No he's got a legit worry, honestly /pol/ can ruin a whole thread, Its terrible. All it takes is one joke for them to let loose
>>52310130
Delicious!
dont die on me, i really wanna see where this goes
>>52304282
A post-apocalyptic medieval world with modern age gun technology and a religion of gun worshippers. Basically /k/ with medieval armor and shields
Dogs
>>52312911
/pol/ is cancer.
>>52322070
This is good. I can already imagine priests of Samuel Colt wielding holy Peacemakers.
>>52312911
Isn't that exactly what the anti-pol crowd are doing now though? One joke sparked all this needless defensiveness...
>>52323806
How about the orthodox apostles: St. Kalashnikov, St. Nagant, St. Maxim and St. Tokarev?
>>52304282
Humans live in humanistan.
>>52323835
This.
Magic grenades and mines. Also traps.
>>52304340
>It's a meat world.
I would love to play in the Warriors of Plasm setting.
>>52326065
Why are they doing the sign of the cross wrong
It's not even backwards, they just inverted the last two steps
>>52304679
Are you kidding? It's so rad to the max, it's extreme!
>>52304340
