Why does everyone insist on making maps that consists solely on islands. Anyways, its not a terrible map. Names are decent, albeit generic. I could see some decent character RPs going on in a specific region, and not the entire map.

DMs can limit the RP range to a specific region instead of the entire map. You notice how in [user]18874609[/user]'s maps, he did not use the entire world? :P

Aye, I also noticed how his RPs have steadily been becoming less and less active.

Well, LOTR RPs are too overrated in general. We wanted something new. As for his other RP, he's taking a break.

Don’t like it. Feels both “Take current world and change names” and “Nations shall be evenly split among the land as if it was the Scramble for Africa”.

Well, as I said, it is pretty useless, especially for those who gets to view the entire picture.

Also, do you mean generic? Because I did not take anything from the modern world.

He means that you shamelessly based yourself on real-world nations, for example, herrliches Reich is obviously German-derived, Tsardom of Bisharov, Slavic, Quinshai (Yhong Dynasty), Chinese, Yonistasia, South East Asian, and the Obsenawa Shogunate, Japanese. It's not that it's a bad map, but it's more refreshing, at least for some of us, when nations are mostly original. (You'll notice that, though I did base some of my sounds on Southeast Asian languages, the Ni-Lahwang were pretty different from anything in the real world. The Wijałetsi were originally not based on any particular group, but War saw a similarly between their language and Polish that made him turn them into a sort of Italo-Polish hybrid.) Geezuz kriz I wrote too much.

If that's the case cluck, wouldn't it be the same case for all fantasy stuff in general? Because it would mean he doesn't like fantasy at all.

and if he doesn't like it, it's a bad map. It's called Asian standards, buddy :P

Most fantasy stuff is pretty bad but I take what I can get xd I wouldn't say it's an inherently bad map. It had issues but these are easily fixed *cough*I'm always happy to help*cough*
