    Wink I'd definetly go down this rabbit hole...

    So a friend and I discussed about different game worlds and if you had to choose one that would be safe (this obviously started from a discussion on Diablo) which one would it be. We basically went down several different gaming worlds though I'll share my favorite part of the discussion.

    Friend: How about FF Tactics?

    Me: Yeah, I can totally see that, "yeah I'm going to become a squire and earn my way up to knight class" Then the armored gentleman will tell me "Your job class will be peasant"

    Friend: You get to be a Chamber Room Boy for the Nobles...

    Me: Tactics would really suck...


    Anyway, if you could be a generic NPC in any game world, which one would it be? Feel free to share the pros and cons of your choices.

    I'd want to be an NPC in some kind of fantasy world as opposed to a current-age / futuristic world. The first game that comes to mind is Final Fantasy XI. Being in Windurst would be interesting, to say the least!

    As much as FF would be awesome, I just cant decide on one perfect world, so i'd rather hit up DMC instead where Swords, Guns and Demons are your everyday essentials.

    What's to say that we aren't already generic NPCs in a game world?

    FFT would really suck. While I love fantasy settings in games, I would absolutely not want to live there.

    FFXII would be pretty safe, in certain areas. I like FF7's world, but it wouldn't really be safe during the time of the game...

    And we're programmed to do and say certain things by the man!

    I'd probably go to one of the Super Mario worlds. As long as you're not Princess Peach, you're pretty safe.

    What about the ones who got turned into the brick blocks?

    Disgaea, if I'm gonna be an NPC I'm gonna pick a world were even they have high levels. And one where stupid stuff happens all the time.

    I guess Metal Gear would be as safe as ours since it takes place on Earth and Snake and co never get into conflicts in civilain territory.

    They give Mario money, whenever he hits them. So they're at least doing community service as bricks.

    For that matter, what if you're a Goomba? 0.o

    I think I'd be pretty comfortable in Spira. Sure, always a chance of being swallowed by Sin, but as long as you stay in-land or in Luca, you're fairly safe. Plus I want to play Blitzball.

    Star Ocean. There's so many different worlds to choose from, depending on what kind of life I want to live.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.
