Games If you could become any video game character who would you be?

[Freedom Believer]

NOTE: I said video game character. Try to stick to video game characters so no TV show/movie/comic characters that were in video games. Plus, this means that since you become the character, you gain their appearance as well, so it's not you with their powers. Draw up in your mind what they would look like in real life.

Along with this question:

1. Why?

2. As this character would you want to live in that character's universe or live here?

3. What would you do as that character? (ex. What would you do with their powers/abilities?)

As for me; I would love to become Ness. Having PSI powers would be pretty cool. As for the universe I'd live in, I'm kind of torn since EarthBound's universe is hilarious and it would be pretty cool the live in but I could do a lot with the powers in the real world. As for what I would do with those powers, I would use PSI Teleport a lot just to relax and get away.

 

[Sherri]

Thelma from Thelma an Louise, just get in my car and drive away without a destination.

 

[nerve]

I love Earthbound Living in Moonside would be a dream come true for me.

Maybe not a traditional video game character, but my sims lead such rich and rewarding lives I think I'd want to be one of them lol. I'd prefer to live in that kind of universe where there's no prejudice or violence.

I would honestly just live a pleasant and normal life. Have family and friends and relationships and pets and a career and fun things happen sometimes.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

I'd like to be Robin since he's the main character who can marry Lucina from Fire Emblem Awakening. Yeah there are others but meh. I guess make Corrin or Byleth would be okay choices to be too.

 

[StringPuppet]

Step 1: be any character with immense power, i.e Kefka in his God form

step 2: live here because there would be no one powerful enough to save the world unlike in a video game

step 3: destroy the world, sparing all current and future living beings of suffering

 

[Okami]

Amaterasu from Okami, though that may be obvious due to my username. I'd definitely prefer to go to her world, and just explore and use my powers to restore life, like she does.

 

[AutoTap]

Ash from Pokemon. He is so care free and always happy.

FF6 is my favourite game in the series!

As for my answer, I would say Estelle Bright from legends of heroes trails of cold steel, she's just a purely bright person, and strong without going too much into spoiler territory.

 

[MrBlue]

Maybe somebody like Zagreus from Hades. Being powerful enough to beat up a greek god and look bloody gorgeous doing it...sign me up. Not sure where I'd want to be though.

 

[summers]

I know he was in anime first, but I would definitely be goku in ssgss form.

 

[Imaginos]

None really come to mind. I like/identify with a lot of characters, but I'd never actually want to be them. Despite all my faults, I'd rather be me than anything else. Be that as it may, I've always enjoyed the look of the forbidden lands from Shadow of the Colossus. If I were Wander (the protagonist from that game) I simply would've remained there as an isolated hermit and would probably have demolished that only bridge in on purpose just so I could know I would never be disturbed.

 

[Lolkillme]

I want to say Kratos but man his history is DARK so I'm good on all that. Second choice would probably go to Goku even though I like Vegeta better, but as far as strictly video game characters go I'd go with Jak from the Jak and Daxter series. Cool best friend, awesome powers and abilities, dope guns, sweet hoverboard, and killer hair to top it off lol. I'd probably live there tbh, far away from my problems here, and I would have done exactly what he did. As far as we know he's kicking back and enjoying his life now, with a handful of amazing stories to tell. Sounds like a good life to me.

 

[All Things Must Pass]

The player character in creative Minecraft.

1. They are a blank slate, so they could be whatever i want them to be. They are also nearly omnipotent.

2. Here.

3. Achieve world peace with immortality, invincibility, and infinite resources. Use kill commands if I don't want to live anymore.

 

[BeansOfRequirement]

I'd choose the DOOM guy, suit and everything. Then put me on Earth with these normies.

 

[narval]

your char in Grim Dawn. Because all of this:
1) COMPLETE memory/personality resset.
2) Potential magic powers
3) fixing things while traveling? fight hordes of demons, undeads and so? YES
3) Cool dark-postapocaliptic steampunk world
4) M A G I C stuff around that world would help a lot with things like heal and so. In postapocaliptic worlds things like hygiene and medicine are paramount. Doesn't matters if comes from magic or science.


AND YES, I KNOW, THE PERSONALITY OF A POTATO IS MEH, BUT ALSO A POTENTIAL GOOD THING: THERE'S A LOT OF MARGIN IN DEVELOP A PERSONALITY.

 

[UseItOrLoseIt]

Guybrush Threepwood. I want to be a pirate, roam the high seas and be so carefree that every bad decision works in my favor (and even if it doesn't, be so blissfully dumb to not know the difference).

 

[Sprite_Geist]

I would like to become the G-Man from the Half-Life series.




Why?

The G-Man is an elusive character. Everything about him - his origin, personal life (if he has one), and his motives are all unknown. In fact he may not even have any of these. This is something that I like about him: he is a nobody; I try to be a nobody in the real world...

I am an introverted individual in the real world and prefer to keep as much about myself a secret as possible. I only feel comfortable showing who I really am with those who I have connections with, but there are not many others who are close to me; though most other individuals I do not have any feelings for - relationship/friendship-wise. I do not want a huge circle of friends or acquaintances, and do not want my job to be a part of my actual life. I actually prefer to be a background character that no one else knows anything about - not that there is much to find out. The problem is that in reality it is not always possible to be like this; sometimes I am forced to socialise out of anxiety induced by peer pressure, or because of some silly "social obligation". By becoming G-Man I could escape from human society, and be totally disconnected from others if I desired; I could finally be a true nobody like I have always wanted - which is what the G-Man is.


As this character would you want to live in that character's universe or live here?

The G-Man is capable of travelling through time and space - to different dimensions, so if I was him I could exist in both. I would likely spend more time in the universe of Half-Life just to see how the timeline (if it exists) turns out in the end, but I would still keep and eye on this universe that we are in, too, because there are some developments which I find exciting.


What would you do as that character? (ex. What would you do with their powers/abilities?)

G-Man has the ability to bend the mechanics of reality to his/its will. I would mainly observe events for enjoyment, but also help those in need if I came across them - they would not be aware of this though, and that would be intended. Similarly to how Thanos wants to tip the scales, but not as warped or self-righteous as he is.

 

[Morituri_Te_Salutant]

This... is kind of a hard question for me to answer, honestly.
Though I think I'll probably prefer to become a badass female character.
Somewhat modestly-dressed of course; the fanservicey ones are sorta overrated.

So Steve/Alex?

[Celerity]

Link

Zelda: Ocarina of Time was my first favorite game as a kid. Being mute is a nice bonus because people suck.

 

[Octavina]

A Splatoon avatar!
(it's a Nintendo colourful shooter game)
why?
Inklings and Octolings are super cute humanoid sea creatures who live in this post apocalyptic future where humanity is wiped out because the sea level rised too much. I'd be a happy little squid or octopus girl battling and having fun with my friends as a carefree teenager who has no real worries other than competing in turf wars (fun game mode) and rocking the latest fashion in inkopolis!
what ability's would I have?
The idea of being able to morph into a squid or a humanoid kid in a second is fun and super cool, and the fact that there are so many weapons to choose from and are super fun to play around with!
this game along with animal crossing brings me so much joy and fun, it's kind of a silly hyperfixation of mine ( along with some Disney movies) but it's one of the only things in life that is stopping me from ctb.

You can use kill commands to kill yourself in creative mode in Java.

 

[Morituri_Te_Salutant]

You can use kill commands to kill yourself in creative mode in Java.

I think you misread me. I didn't say that you can't ctb in creative mode. I said that the ctb you do in creative mode is not permadeath; as you can always respawn yourself back into the game anytime (assuming you could even see the "Respawn" button at the time).

If you wanted to ctb for good (a.k.a., you don't want to respawn back into the world, you'd go for using the kill commands in hardcore mode; which I'm assuming you wanted to do.

 

[avoid_slow_death]

1) Pretty obvious why.
2) Our universe. No respawns, extra lives or cheat codes here. Plus, no trying again once you go.
3) Again, obvious.

 

[WrongPlaceWrongTime]

The goat from Goat Simulator

1) No responsibilities, I can just be a goat
2) There
3) Be a goat

 

[iwanttoleave2000]

dante from dmc

 

[TimeHasCome]

the first goomba of a mario game so I die quickly

 

[klevarie]

Madotsuki or Sunny

 

[Seered Doom]

I would be Joker from Persona 5 because he's really relatable and very charismatic. I wish I could be as important as he is and be able to make a difference in this world, especially with an ability to literally kill god. I would rather live in his universe instead of this one, but only by a small percentage because at least justice is able to be brought about in that world. I would utilize his powers to bring about a world where other people won't be harmed by rhetoric that actually hurts people.

 

[Annon100]

Weird answer but I'd be a sim knowing the sims community id get killed off very quickly plus the thought of just having someone else decide everything for me sounds nice
