I had a little fun idea of makin our little own shenmue roleplay storyline. Each of us would pick a character form the story or it can be even ur own made up character living in Dobuita and then we would start building the story post by post. For example if i was Ryo Hazuki, i'd say:
*Ryo is walking down Yamanose, when suddenly he meets up with Nozomi.*
Ryo: Oh uh, hiya Nozomi. what are you doing at this time of hour.
Nozomi: I could be asking u the same question Ryo. So what ARE you doing at this hour? *awaits response*
Get it? You just gotta be creative ! It could pass the time if ur bored lol. so one of us can strt , and then we can go on from there. You gotta state ur name n who u are btw. and u will be tht character permanatly.
