What if life was like an RPG Video game?

i'd say life would be interesting. you walk around all day without getting tired, you talk to the same people who say the same thing over and over again, you have to find sparkly-thingies to save (or just go outside of town), you can fight a giant hedgehog to beat life, you can be stabbed in the heart without dying, you would have red spiky hair that is only a few pixels, many people in another world can be you, and you have no sense of creativity. you have to get attacks that are pre-programmed for you.

It wouldn't be possible to get hungry either. Ever play Dragon Warrior 3 or 4? Day/Night system, you can wander around for months (game months, not real life) and you characters don't get hungry a bit. And in DW 3 and 4, ever notice if you jump off a high building your characters don't die?

God. XD If real life was like a RPG (School wise atleast) EVERDAY would be like that Final Fantasy A+ flash movie. I would put all my experience points into intelligence! :D That way I can be smart. Laughing

If life was an rpg game I would be about another foot taller, have armor and weapons, and hunt creatures and monsters.

Sure you could Sell it, But you'd only get Half your Money back.

Unless Life is like Fable, or Morrowind and they don't have any of it in Stock. Then you get a Major Profit for Having something they need.

Me: Oh man, I REALLY go to go!
*Takes 3 steps and everything gets whirly*
Me: Crap!....Oh well, let's get this over with....
*Attack meter starts to fill up*
Me: NOOOO!!! IT'S TURN BASED!!!
*Creature sucker punches me in the jewels. I fall down on the ground writhing in pain.*
Me: Oh well, at least I don't have to go to the bathroom anymore...

It would also be interesting talking to people.

*Walks up to some random guy and says nothing*
Guy: Ah, the weather is nice. I should go for a swim!
*Walks up to another random guy and says nothing*
Guy: Candy rots your teeth! Don't eat so much of it!
*Walks up to a random little kid*
Kid: I LIKE SHORTS!!

It would be really, really, really screwed up if it wound up like Nethack.

This water contains dangerous bacteria! You feel deathly sick. --More--

great thing is, you never age, you never have to hurry (no matter how fast or slow you are, you always make it to school on time (or are late)), and you never get tired or exhausted (strength of 1 and still able to haul my three friends' dead bodies miles back to town to be revived)

Then I'd only be able to talk during a cutscene or not be able to talk at all-! :O

And I'd be able to only say the first part of a joke and make people think I'm a cool guy from that. (Sims:Bustin' Out anybody?)

Oh yeah.Then there would also be weird guys in rubbersuits trying to rule the world with their robots...

Lesse...
Animals would carry money, despite the fact that they're mugged practically twice every five minutes.

Everyone you talk to would know everything before you do or right after it happens, even if you're the first person to see it.

RPGs and the fantasy genre would mimic life as it is now.

Toilets would go extinct.

When you're outside of a town or city, anything that can attack you would attack you.
Sometimes, even the rocks will attack you.
Or the bushes.
Or the air.
Or that little bit of dust sitting over there by the-okay, I'll stop now >_>

If life were an RPG, I'd rule. I'd be unstoppable. My fencing skills would kick...you know...with anything, and I'd be able to use magic!!! Actually, sometimes I confuse my life with final Fantasy games and I'll end up saying things like "Level up!" When I win a match in a sport or something.

Life as an RPG...Now that I think about it, that would be pretty fun. Wielding weapons, Killing, romance, getting rich, exploring across the world...that would be great! Heh...anyway, just depends what RPG life I got into before i enjoy it...

Has anyone played Just Breed for the NES? It's made by Enix (remember those guys, before they merged with Squaresoft into Squarenix?), kinda like Dragon Warrior but with Fire Emblem style battles. That would be cool to fight Just Breed style.
