    you guys probably wouldn't. You'd be in the temples reading scrolls and studying mechanics with Cids, while all the bullies and athletes would be levelling up and becoming fighters. Not everyone can be brilliant at anything. And if you're in this world, then so are they, and just because you know how to work the game doesn't mean you have the strength to wield a sword or the impetus to do so.

    You don't find so many geeks who will work out, they tend to be a vocal minority.

    I'd probably just be an NPC who has nothing better to do but hope the hero comes and raids my house of its chests. If I'm lucky, he bothers to talk to me and I get to tell him some random life story wrapped up in one sentence.

    I'm just not a fighter, you know

    Nah. That's a cute ideas, but if I left this world for that one, I wouldn't pass up the oppertunity to try it.

    And neither would you. You'd have to be a 3rd generation FF worldling before the thrill of that kind of expoential self build up stopped being thrilling.

    I reckon most of us geeks would getr our asses killed, but it does't mean that we'd be the one's in the library.
    I'm only in the libraries here because FF lifestyle in the real world is called crime.

    I like libraries, but i never read anymore, not even manga. I dont think i'd be much of a mage if i were in a FF world, it would probably take too much smarts and memorization. I'd rather just run up and hack something to death. Of course i'd die quickly if i just did that, so i'd have to learn some other things like being sneaky and learning vital spots and pressure points and the like...i'd still like it best if i was an assassin

    I keep wishing I had a status screen, and a Remedy I could use to get rid of this stupid cold.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    OMG! FF world would be the best thing EVER! The world would never see me again because I would be out killing stuff my whole life. Sleep? Who needs sleep! I would kill monsters all night to.

    But if you think about it, maybe there really is a FF world out there somewhere...

    I think I would go crazy and die if this was an FF world.

    An FF world would get boring after a while. But for the first couple of milleniums it would be fun. with a stabbity-stab there and a nuke-nuke here, here a stab, there a nuke, everywhere a stab-nuke, old McStab-Nuke had a super monster that could kill you in one hit stab-nuke-stab-nuke-stab. +100 hp if you can guess that tune to go with the song. And I'll even throw in a cura spell.

    Um... When I quote your text, I get some wierd, wacky html stuff.

    But anyway, if you're really looking for an FF world, join a gang in the ghetto.

    Really, i just want to kill monsters, specifically, and level up, because it seems like a more exciting way to earn a legal living. Not to mention a great way to work out all areas of my body and gain fame and power etc.

    But again, there's plenty of places in the real world where you can kill for money. But I'm afraid of the range on a gun. I've always seen hand to hand fighting as something greater, since survival would depend entirely on my skill, and not sniper tactics. (Sometimes you get knifed in the back, of course, but what are you gonna do...)

    A world full of censors for swearing and other "things"?

    I'd go insane and go on a killing spree. It would be a good sidequest for all of you
    Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
    Have a nice day!!

    Squirrels hide gil in their acorn stash. That's why it no good to kill squirrels in the winter, and they're only for hunting (ravaging/ransacking). Obviously they don't have gil on hand.

    Fish usually have all kinds of valuables in their stomachs, because they munch jewels and gold as fast as possible, mistaking these treasures for other fish.

    So, kill a fish, slice it open, and you could find millions worth of gems.

    ......well said. Exactly what I was thinking.

    Realistically....I'm an athelete, a working guy with university education behind me, someone who works out, someone who loves to hunt, and someone who loves Final Fantasy.

    But I do like everything in moderation. So perhaps I wouldn't be hardcore enough to go out and fight imps day after day, until finally I can move on to giants. I imagine I'd do it for a while, then get tired of it, and move on to something else.

    However, if it meant travelling the world, and adventuring with a group of friends, then that would certainly appeal to me.

    Hard to say, I s'pose.

    Ah, but you see, all the geeks would be magic users. Unfortunately, Final Fantasy tends to downplay the power of magic users endgame, but it'd still be nice.

    I would.

    If you want to gain a level (all stats as well), gain some EXP.
    But when you want to gain only some (not all) of stats, do thing otherwise.
    e.g.
    For Int: Study at school
    For Str: Work out at Fitness Gym
    For Fire element: Work out at/near a very hot area
    etc.
