If you were to live in a video game world, which one would you live in

[antonkr]

Imagine, living the life of a Imperial City guard, or perhaps open your own restaurant, at the edge of space. If you were to live in a world that you made up or was used in a video game, which would you live in? and who would you want to be?

[CommanderCrazy]

Prolly the world (Mars) from Red Faction Guerrilla.

Who would I be? Quite obvious dont ya think? Alec Mason.... :thumbsup:

If I was a little insane and wanted a risky but adventurous life, the DC Wastelands of Fallout 3.

 

Oblivion would be dangerous but has safer places to go.

 

If I wanted dull but more boring, Sims 2.

[Marcus Wolfe]

Y'know, I'm going to think about this one for a bit.

 

On the other hand, I can easily list a pair of videogame worlds I would not want to live in:

 

A) Mortal Kombat Universe.

 

B) God of War Universe

 

And now that I think about it, I wouldn't want to live in any RTS universe. They have very high mortality rates in those.

If I wanted dull but more boring, Sims 2.

You mean Hell right? Pure, unapologetic Hell. It's downright disturbing what some people do with their Sims. I wouldn't wish that sort of existence on Hitler.

 

If the mechanics of the world assume a mostly reality base, I'd be tempted to say that I'd like to live in the world of Anarchy Online (provided that expansions are free too). It's got spacey stuff, a large world to explore, but more importantly, near immortality, easy money, and the ability to become incredibly strong with enough effort.

If I wanted fun, either of the Just Cause universes. Otherwise, it has to be either Ratchet and Clank or the Jak and Daxter games' universe.

[Retribution]

Oblivion or Mass Effect.

[antonkr]

For me, it is defiantly Mass Effect. And I would have course want to be the first human specter. Or just a specter.

[DeathWarrior]

There's no single answer for this in my case, I like many different universes, so I'll choose 4 of my favorites:

 

1. Oblivion - I'd be a Nord Barbarian/Adventurer living in the mountains

2. Fallout 3 - Just an average wastelander with a Pip-boy

3. S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl - Obviously I'd be a stalker, most likely for either the Loners or Freedom

4. System Shock 2 - Either a UNN soldier or Tri-Optimum crewmember

EDIT: June 1, 2010

I am actually finding myself steering away from realizing any game I would like to live in that fashion.

I found out I could afford a yacht, which to my thinking is an offshore apartment. That fun idea, from a game apartment, seems to have curved my thinking toward getting a real yacht in the future. I might even get tweaked up enough about the idea to actually buy a real one, "dreaming, a little".

 

Hey! Who knows, I might actually get after the idea in a way so I can afford a yacht, just like it, or better!
