Discussion If you could live in any fictional universe, which would you choose?

[DynamicDepression]

Personally, I'd probably go for Star Trek or The Orville. A post-scarcity utopia and an entire galaxy to explore both seem quite nice.

 

[MellowAvenue]

Mass Effect though preferably before 2183.

 

[Lullaby]

Mass Effect (before everything falls apart).

It'd be so cool being surrounded by all these different alien species and being able live on a huge ship with everything you need just floating wherever.

I would definitely just sit by a huge window all the time staring out into space.

I can't believe I forgot about Mass Effect. It's my favorite space opera for crying out loud!

 

[hungry_ghost]

One where there isn't a constant bombardment of negativity, violence and carnage, death and despair.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

Wish I could say Fire Emblem so I could attempt to be with my ultimate Waifu4Laifu Lucina but the reality of that universe is that the world is constantly going to be at war over giant dragons that are eventually going to go insane and kill everyone regardless of whether or not they're good or evil…

…Pokémon world it is then. Free healthcare, at least for pets.

I'd invite my closest friends, all from different planets, to a Gilbert & Sullivan musical staged by Salarians. I'd skip Elcor Macbeth, though. Also, having time to consider different conversation options--especially if I really want to be a smartass in this moment--would seriously improve my social skills.

Definitely! Having pre-set dialogue options available would probably solve a good 70% of my issues

Immense disappointment, but you haven't experienced Macbeth if you haven't heard it in the voice of the Elcor.

 

[Burner1234]

It'd be either Mass Effect or Genshin Impact.

Mass Effect so I can hang out with Garrus. Genshin Impact so I can explore Dragonspine lol I love the cold and snow.

 

[KQuotientW]

Harry Potter / Fantastic Beasts or X-Men. I'd love to be able to become invisible or run fast if I were a mutant. I dabbled in paganism when I was younger, hence the interest in all things magick.

 

[Klophy]

Probably some slice of life anime world. Just general all round feel good vibes.

Teyvat seems nice, just keep Paimon as far away from me as possible.

I was thinking about fictional universes I like and... Most of them suck to live in. Dark Souls is a purgatory, Trails is a political shithole, Megaman is a futuristic world where there are terrorist attacks and wars at least twice a week, I like Monster Hunter but I wouldn't have the stomach to kill so many beasts that way. Even Pokemon, which seems like a utopian world, is also a big NO, I don't want some asshole and it's Dragonite to blow up my city.

Uhm... I guess Star Ocean, because it's our world centuries in the future in our space age and magic exists. Battle Network and .hack// are an option too, it's our world but a bit more technologically and socially advanced. No More Heroes would be funny.

 

[outatime_85]

The John Wick Universe.

 

[Message In A Bottle]

Animal crossing

 

[Molded foundation]

Hyrule in LoZ.

 

[nosurpries]

pokémon. going on adventures and training little pokémon.

 

[Ashu]

Dune. As a worm.

 

[locked*n*loaded]

Is there a separate universe that Buffy, all the vampires, and the demons live in? I'd choose that one. That would be so cool.

 

[DynamicDepression]

Hyrule in LoZ.

Which era?

In the end, its all about who you are, where you are born, where do you live, pretty much like in real life. You could be born in a setting that looks all fun and games like Harry Potter and end up like Snape or worse.

Star trek sounds good, but only if you are born in one of the best home planets of the Federation members, like Earth, that is pretty much an utopia, with no hunger, no disease, no poverty, away enough from the conflicts in the borders. Most of the universe is chaotic, violent and dangerous.

That's correct, that's why the options focus on worlds that provide more positive possibilities than chances of ending up dead. Most of the worlds I mentioned reduced their conflicts and problems to technology-related stuff, because this allowed them to move foward and they knew how to do it without worsening their living standard.

 

[Sakura94]

Maybe Grandia

 

[not-2-b-the-answer]

Ummmm.... Care Bears
Seriously though....
Krypton... Right before it exploded.

 

[GasMonkey]

One where I would be a gigachad instead of a virgin.

 

[obafgkm]

Doraemon, or anything of that kind.

There is always a solution/ magic device for every problem. It is always happy ending. No financial problems, no drug addiction. No one dies. Maybe getting drunk once in a while but always harmless. Most important, it's short. Even if it's bad, it will be over in a few pages, or 10 to 15 minutes.

 

[want2dienow]

every universe has death pain and sorrow.

 

[TheLastK]

The same universe as this one, just with a few minor changes, where I made a few different decisions and was just a little bit luckier. You ever see those memes that go through good end to bad end and all that, taking the piss out of videogames? I'm approaching my bad end really soon.

This a solid choice too though lmao, love Doraemon, or on that magic being a solution maybe the original dragonball. Shit was my childhood

One where I was happy....
