Fast food roleplay

@IslamadonI'd argue that is taking the least charitable interpretation of how those playergroups are engaging in roleplay. You are upset that Balian =/= Constantinople, but Balian == Venice which is incredibly different from ye ol' regular Medieval European-influenced entity. You are also mistaken about your claim about Aaun.

@Ibn KhaldunMy opinion is written from the perspective of an outsider who does not actively engage with these player groups beyond what I see on the streets. It FEELS like there's nothing going for any of these countries, as an outsider, because they all FEEL the same. I'm less "upset" and more bummed that it does not FEEL like they are meeting full potential or taking the steps to carve a unique niche. I've maintained this opinion since last map BTW, when Balian was actively trying to do Constantinople but hardly did anything Byzantine beyond a name or two. I'm also not trashing Balian, I've nothing against the players or the country itself.
