I'm happy with the archetypes we have, but I would like more specificity maybe for things, like a Monk Archetype that deals with the shuriken machine gun trope of ninjas, or for that matter a monk who is able to use a longsword as a monk weapon or even a real Zen Archer?. There's some niggling things I want, which I think can be easily explored in an Oriental Adventure's supplement.And Oriental Adventures doesn't have to be a singular culture, it spans the varieties and nuances of China, Japan, and much of the Far East. Considering many of the supplement books tend to be their own worlds, Oriental Adventures in itself can be rather expansive especially if branches out into South East Asia and parts of Russia and Alaska. So no. It's not a singular cultural monolith here, it's instead working on different assumptions. Considering almost all the big worlds are just Europe with varying degrees of magic...</blockquote>
