    That does kinda depend on the nature of the dystopia to be fair. Like, the ones that are just “a stratified society where the poor live in the dirt”, or “an authoritarian regime”, sure, but some dystopian fiction relies on tech that doesnt even exist to run.

      Sure but that’s just a bit of colour for the world that sets the genre. The meat of it is all there regardless.
