Isekai + Fantasia?

[Illmaeran]

Being a woman isn't just a thought experiment for me. If I could be born again in a cool magical world I'd want to be a guy instead of someone who has to think about consequences.

Perhaps I give the general male populace too much credit, but I certainly think of the consequences of my actions in this realm. Being in a world without current-day contraceptive methods does change things a bit, to put it mildly.

If the former rule is true, would the adventurer neighbourhoods not be more restrictive? Like, as a game they're incredibly restrictive, and I say this as a person with a house. But if the geography were "real" then you wouldn't have some twenty neighbourhoods layered on top of one another.


Personally, I'd be more interested in being isekai'd to the beginning of the plot. It'd be interesting to see how far off the rails the world would go with so many people suddenly showing up that know the plot.

My take on the current housing neighborhoods is that they're designed in a way to comply with game design limitations and each individual ward would effectively be a segment of a much larger housing district. A bit of hand waving would be required to account for house location relative to natural or design features such as waterfalls, the beach, etc. Then again, that could be explained away as each ward within the Goblet has its own central pool etc and not all of the waterfalls and streams in Lavender Beds are exactly the same; rather the ones in game are representative of "a stream's here". That way the general layout of each ward would be the same so people wouldn't lose their house type or location.

Yeah. My thought was since it would be a real world with real world distances and land area, there would be plenty of available land not currently "Zoned for Residential" that could be bought and a house built on it. Places like Mist or Shirogane would be your golf course subdivisions or gated communities whereas "raw land" or houses in town where all the NPCs live would be for the average adventurer.

I'd rather not live in a current neighborhood. Can you imagine what the HoA would be like? LOL

Starting at the beginning of 2.0 would be interesting, for sure. I wonder how many assassination attempts would be made on certain Lalafells and Garleans....

Man buck this, I'm writing a plot for people waking up as their mmo characters now. But it's the real world instead of the game. I'm debating if I'll have them with their powers and skills from the game or whatnot. I just want to write and see what happens when various cat girls or what have you start walking around in the real world. Picture an Au ra or a miqo'te trying to update their ID at the DMV or goign to their workplace to clock in. lol.

Forgot his name.

He's never given it, so just remains the Wandering Minstrel -- but we've seen in the Rising in various years that he's meant to be Yoshi-P in disguise. So, I mean, I guess his name would be "Naoki Yoshida" if you wanted to get precise about it. ;P

(Just as the Minstrel's friend, the "Wandering Dramaturge" you meet in the Ivalice and Bozja arcs, is meant to be Yasumi Matsuno, the one behind FF Tactics and FFXII, and who wrote the Ivalice and Bozja arcs in XIV.)

Might change back to my stubble highlander, but my bunny boy right now is incredibly beautiful. I'd be sad I can't wear hats, though.

I'd be level 90 in half my battle josb and level 80 in the others, a master artsian, with a mansion in one of the best spots in the game.

I think life would he pretty good. I'd also kill the WoL and take his crystal for there can be only one!

[RitsukoSonoda]

I'd stay as I am now. I'd only consider being something different if they gave us playable loporrits... >.>

[Catwho]

I'd, uh, go back to being my Hotlander in that case. She was the closest to "me" that I've ever played. Being a tabby Moonkitty was fun, and being a bun boy is fun, but I really found myself identifying with my Thighlander gal.

[Shibi]

If you knew with 100% certainty that you would be pulled into the game and be your main character, ala Isekai genre media, next time you logged in, would you fantasia? If so, what would you change?
...

I'd likely change nothing. I am pretty happy being a male-lala.

11. You can get pregnant.

Likely a good thing we are not the WoL then, it would have to be difficult to get a suit of armour with the 9 month tummy in place.

...Picture an Au ra or a miqo'te trying to update their ID at the DMV or goign to their workplace to clock in. lol.

Shivers.

[Kaurhz]

Wouldn't change a thing, to be honest. Except maybe visiting the name of certain people in the world and telling them to give me the name of their aesthetician.

[Caurcas]

Hmm, would mods come in as well OP?

with the additional context provided, its much easier to reach a decision

What kind of mods we talking here?

[SilverArrow20XX]

I'd be happy as is, as I'm just an Elezen version of myself.
Would probably switch to a female version as this would be the only chance to experience that.
Might do Viera instead cause the whole 300+ year lifespan thing, though I prefer Elezen.
