Ever treat your life like FF just for the hell of it?

[Harvest Moon]

I noticed this the other day at school and got me wondering if anyone else does it. (Or maybe i'm just wierd..)

When bored I write letters to this girl that a friend of our's is trying to hook-together. You see we're both single, we're both hareful lil' bastards, and we both like rpgs a little too much.. a match made in the malbolge. XP

Anywhosit, as I was saying.. when bored I write to her about my "side quests" such as "encountering the evil janitors" and trying to find a party to help me smote them quickly and efficently.. I refer to the redneck as our token archer as he's always flaunting how he has rounds and rifles in his truck *hyuck!*, and i'm scared cause my second day at this new school some guy flirted with me. (Incase you couldn't tell I'M a dude..) and I consider him "a boss i'm not ready for" and his breif but intimidating appereance was like something you'd expect from Sipheroth or whatever.. Being pagan I naturaly refer to myself as if a blackmage.. :D

My question is do you ever do this? Perhaps not nesscarely write it out but explain to others your expiriences in FF like quality?

*J*When are you and her going to get to the hentai doujinshie part? Powpowchikapowwow! ;)
*HM and i guess girlfriend?*-_-
*HM writes down how he wants to cast meato but is afraid of "the judge" making an apperance..*

Damn judge from tactics scarred me for life..

I once told a teacher to go talk to a wall, but it didn't go down too well.

[fire_of_avalon]

I do that at work, only not like Final Fantasy but random other stuff. I have an active imagination.

[moses]

Wow, You sound just like my group of friends. We're all a little over the top, and yes quite often discuss life in gaming terms, mostly WoW, but alot of FF stuff too. Yes, we're an odd bunch.

[Quina]

I tried that once. 5-10 years later they wouldn't even let me have my gunblade back. :(

So you were the one with the gunblade. YOU WILL NOT WIN NEXT TIME, QUINA! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Quina]

I wish large mutant frogs really existed.

[Necronopticous]

Ever since I can remember when I was younger I used to act out RPGs. When I was 8-9 years old I would take my action figures into the tub and make up RPG stories and act them out around the rim of the tub while I took a bath.

When I was a little older I would go outside and pretend that I was fighting off imaginary enemies with home-made weapons (broomstick=sword, dustpan=axe, etc.) I would even simulate having a menu and choosing my battle strategies.

After that came the phase where I would just close my eyes and imagine RPGs I was creating in my head, usually as I was going to sleep. I still do this on occasion.

[Rainecloud]

I seem to remember having a turn-based fight back at school.

Raine: Magic > Curaga.
Chris: Attack.
Raine: *dies*

We'd shout out the actions and generally laugh ourselves silly. It was rather stupid. We also applied the same turn-based system to things like handing in homework.

Raine: Give > Homework > Teacher.
Teacher: *receives*
Raine: Raine gets 2,500 exp + potion.

Again, very silly.

[Lucky Charms]

HAHA I got Selphie's haircut back when I was in 9th. Took me a whole hour everyday to make it that flippy. >_> Used to act like her too.. oh geez.

[Meat Puppet]

The teacher wouldn't give me my crystal, so I went on a quest for the legendary sword, then chopped off her head.

[Citizen Bleys]

Used to act like her too.. oh geez.

Perish!

[Jojee]

Perish!

Hey you made me Selphie, does this mean you want me to perish? :( :( ;___;

Haha, me too Raine xD I just remembered. Me and my boy do that. It's like...

Boy: I cast fire on you!!
Me: Er... I cast reflect.
Boy: ARRGHGHHHHH IT BURNS IT BURNS :|
Me: ...:p My boyfriend is a freak. :<3:

We're such beautiful nerds together :<3:

[Resha]

Yes. :p Lol, after reading the LoTR, I kept hearing orc drums everywhere... :shifty: I can hear them now...

[Squall04]

No, you are all wierd.

...

Ok, I admit I did ... still do. DANG.

Ya, when I was really young I'd play like I was Mario it my back yard. Then I would pretend I was one of the chess pieces in Battle Chess. (Mind you, this was a LONG time ago, I was like 7 or 8!) Then I would play with homemade weapons like I was in Warcraft or Command and Conquer. Then the neighborhood kids and I did this thing one summer where half of us were the Sith and the other half were Jedi. That was pretty fun/dumb. I didn't get into RPGs until high school, so I never acted those out or anything. Although sometimes I think to myself that I'm in a game and have to do all these sidequests like to to class or do homework or something to that effect.

Sounds pretty much like me. :choc2:

[Little Miss Awesome]

Not really, but when me and my friend get bored we escape the Guides we go to, I do all the commentary! :D
It's like, theres a tiny patch of snow I refer to as an icy mountain and a pavement is a hazourdous cliff, naturally :p
That's only for like 5 minutes a week when I'm disgustingly bored for a joke, I'm not all like "Let's dress like Yuna and Rikku and parade the street!" :tongue:

[Lucky Charms]

Perish!
Used to. I was 14 back then. :p

[Yew-Yevon]

That would be sweeeet :eek: :love: :love: :love:

[la monk]

all the people in my group at school have titles. we have a few "elders" that lead it and cadets and the like.

[Psychotic]

I beat up monsters to try to get their gold all the time.

...'cept by monsters I mean old people, and by gold I mean life savings. But don't blame me, the videogames made me do it.

[YunaGirl05]

Yeah but me and my friends just make stuff up out of no where and make up all these cinspiracys. its so fun.

[Jojee]

I beat up monsters to try to get their gold all the time.

It's not good to beat yourself up. :tongue:

[Psychotic]

It's not good to beat yourself up. :tongue:It's worth it for the EXP. :rolleyes2

[Jojee]

It's worth it for the EXP. :rolleyes2

You didn't give me any EXP last night. :rolleyes2

[Psychotic]

You didn't give me any EXP last night. :rolleyes2Yeah, and you forgot to give me my gil. My services don't come free, y'know.

[Zeldy]

Yeh i think i have with my brother.. well its not more a "game" but we used to fight like they do in Dragon Ball z.
"Kaaameee haaaaaameee haaaaa!"
"aaaargh!" and id teleport towards him and punchi him. :D

[boris no no]

when i was younger me, my sister and brother were the ninja turtles...
i was michalangio! :love:
we would run around the garden beating up rocksteady and beebop and eat pizza!
those were the day!
the other day me and my friend were smoking and we made an adventure about these bus handles..... :cool:
plus at school me and my friends made a whole video series of us betaing up bad guys and being mad!
:love: those were the days

[rubah]

I would if anyone in my immediate circle of friends had actually played ff.

[Mittopotahis]

i remember a long while back (year 2 or 3) me and my friend used to act out video games at school. teleport here, attack with that. Oh no im wounded use the potion oh no im dead, you gain 500 EXP and 100 Gil (or whatever currency we used (It wasnt Gil))...U dont know why but people looked at us confused...

And a few years back (maybe year 5 or 6) i remember my friend's (same friend) sister had a dance concert and i was actually staying over that night so we went to this school and it had a jungle gym outside and we were completing obstacle courses and depending on the difficulty of the course and the type of...uhhh...obstacle we gained stat ups. Like we had to walk across this horizontal pole and we'd get +3 balance. And then we had to leave but we continued with it at his house

And i remember just last year whenever i go over to my friends house we'd make our own battles up but unlike last time (which was more of a fighting game as in attack as soon as you get a chance but with magic attacks) we done it as a turn based battle system...i think we still do it occasionally...i think

And of recent times ive been practising with my styrofoam sword i made and mastering abilities

Oh and i usually think of games i make up in my head...

And then i wish that some games (mainly ff) were real...and then i am happy...and then my friends (differents ones this time) argue with me and say that reality is better then fantasy and we get into this big debate etc etc etc...

No one apart from that 1 friend and me actually likes acting out games...

[Nod]

often after ive been playing FF really intensely i go into situations IRL thinking 'its ok, if mess this up i can always go back to my saved game'. I then check myself, and remember that IRL you dont have saved games. :p :roll:

[Rase]

Well, not ff per say, but video games in general. I seem to remember liking acting out like my life was an FPS.

[Chris]

I can't deny the truth anymore... I am Bartz.

:(

[SoulSeek139]

I dressed up as Auron for halloween and I was uttering his victory phrases all day. About 1/7 of students were impressed and the rest thought I was some kind of confused knight with a broken arm. It was all worth it.

[Mittopotahis]

oh yeah..one time i had played Metroid Prime 2: Echoes for maybe 2 hours when i first got it....as you know (if youve played it) at the start you are really vulnrable to drak aethers atmospher so you have to run to the closest light crystal...Well i decided to get off so i saved and got off...as i turned a corner (in real life, (my room is down a small hall) so anyway as i turned the corner i started to look for a light crystal...then i realised...

true story!

[krissy]

itd be awesome if resting up all the way took 10 seconds


also save points


last time i killed a bird, it didn't give me no money. so i did what someone on these boards told me to do the time before that that this happened. started jumping on it. still no money. didn't even have the decency to turn into a red wireframe and dissapear off the neighbours front yard.
