Or so says the guidebook of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion...But playing the game is exactly like that. You become a totally different person in a fantasy world, and the troubles of your normal life are forgotten.

If given the chance, would you live another life in another world? Not permanently of course, but if real life was getting you down, would you want to escape?

I most certainly would...Not really because I don't like my life (I love it :D), but just to experience something different than what I have here. Casting magic and killing goblins doesn't sound so bad after sitting through an hour and a half of calculus >.>

So what about everyone else?

Yes. Just to have things changed once and awhile and experiencing new things would be amazing. Of course, only without consiquences.

It's been long but we can do it; let's make this our dream

Look to tomorrow because it's all we have. Turn up the music until the walls shake. What do we have?
Is it hope? Love? Is it nothing at all? We won't know at all until we make something of what we feel.
When that happens, we'll find the truth. We'll find what we want. And we will find ourselves, finally.

If it meant I got to be either Ivan or Yuber, I'd be all over it. Lightning has never been so awesome

If I did go to a fantasy world, I would definately be someone with Lightning/Wind powers, that's for sure. With swords.

That. Would be awesome.

Alright, well, let me be the first to say that I wouldn't.

I mean yeah, sometimes while playing a video game I think to myself "how cool would this be if it were real," but I rarely ever find myself thinking of this "game world" outside of when I'm physically playing the game. It would be effing wicked to be able to shoot a fireball out from my hands, I'm perfectly contempt with my own life the way it is :]
