New alaplaya steampunk mmo. I can't seem to find any info on it besides the silly overview page. Maybe there are some videos on youtube or some reviews on mmohut, but check it out at your own risk:

Yes, mmohut has a video on it:

Watching now to see how steampunkish it is.

I've been itching for some sort of MMO grinding the past couple days, so I'll give it a go for a few hours. I'm betting it's the same as every other generic Asian MMO that exists at the moment, so don't expect much.

And since this thread is necro'd already, and I have a chance to contribute something obscure, here is Wachenröder. There's no English version of the game, but there is a translated script. It's a Steampunk Strategy RPG on the Sega Saturn, of all things. Character design is by Yoshitoshi ABe of such things as Haibane Renmei, and Serial Experiments Lain to boot. I haven't played it myself, so that's pretty much all I can say about it.

Edit: Man the guy in Soulwynd's video can Talk

Well there's Rise of Nations:Rise of Legends if you want an RTS, mind the Vinci aren't pure steampunk but more of a mix of Leonardo's designs and steampunk, plus there are two other equally interesting and awesome races which combine into one very very interesting world, if the game had anything done right it was the background and it's a real shame it wasn't expanded upon by anything else.

Wachenroder, a JP-only Sega Saturn-era Steampunk Strategy RPG

Oh wow, I didn't know there was another one of those.


It's a bit of a stretch, but you could look up Sakura Wars.  It's a mecha series set in an alternate-history 1920s.  Instead of WWI, demons appeared, and the game is set right after that.  It's a TRPG/Adventure game/Dating sim, and your characters are theatre performers in the downtime between being badasses in magisteamtech power armor.  It relies pretty heavily on Rule of Cool.

Unfortunately, the focus isn't really the steampunk, and the only one available in English is more Jazz and Jets, as I understand it.  Robot samples.

/fangush.

It's pretty silly and over the top.  If you don't mind that though, it's great.

There's an incomplete Let's Play of the first game on SA, if you're interested.

Yeah, I tried it yesterday. It's so very cheap mmo and so very not hybrid that I already uninstalled.

Build your own giant steam-powered tank and shoot at other giant steam-powered tanks with steam-powered guns in a mostly steam-powered post-war Victorian world.  With steam.

Didn't look through the whole thread, but in case no one mentioned it, Steam Slug.
Game, as far as I've seen is only in Russian.
