it's japan, everyone in nebulous is a weeb who's played joseon/watches a shit ton of anime/or studies japan's history and culture

i have faith that everyone here could properly rp the smallest character in this gamemode, from farmer to ronin
you say this

but people literally couldn't even play an american/english person from the 90s in ww3rp let alone a normal grown up person correctly on hl2rp most of the time

i dont see a way it can be done respectfully by the majority of the playerbase without it devolving into memes and shittery

Joseon only worked because we were a small cast of really involved players taking the lead for the japanese in kobayashi

I never played ww3rp, mostly because it wasn't a very serious rp to begin with considering it was s2k-oriented

but, from what i've gathered, every asian character i've seen played is rather developed and played well (see Renjiro, Rejisuto, Takashiro, Hajime, Shawn Seon, all those kinda dudes) especially if they're a wannabe modern-day samurai, which everyone likes to be when they play a japanese character

just have a lil faith gamer, if it's japan, im sure everyone will be just as involved, if not more with this full-on gamemode/server, especially since they'll be actual samurai and shit this time, not modern yakuza

correction: i did play ww3rp once, it wasn't a very serious experience, i tried running a store as an italian person and shit

having a 1600 'authentic' server requires people to know how the samurai and shit acted back then

which 80% of the people dont know

being a weeb neckbeard does not mean that you understand the culture and traditions of feudal Japan and Shintoism

At first I was skeptical, but this seems like it could really be a genuinely fun and amusing theme.

i don't trust meme teenage-twenty something white dudes to rp being japanese in the 1100-1800s no matter how much anime they watch.

I'll give this a proper read through shortly but be warned, any ideas for future GMod servers need to be more than ideas; I'm not going to be taking on any development for a new GMod server and I won't be tasking any of our devs to either.

As with WW3RP and FTRP we're open to new gamemodes that are already in active development or have been developed.
