if we were in a fantasy world you'd go slay monsters? alright wow that's weird i'd just max my cooking and alchemy and then craft ice cream and tiny potions and drink a tiny potion and eat an ice cream all day over and over, like an adult.
@root check out the manga toaru ossan no vrmmo, localized in english as an anime called "record of a certain dude's vrmmo life" its about a middle aged salaryman who plays a vrmmo on his time off and he picks the off meta skills like crafting and kicking and wind magic but he comes out on top somehow
@georgespolitzer lmfao that's the power fantasy of all the weirdos like me
@root id be like hold up. you're telling me i can just cast spells n shit? and then id be doing some mickey mouse sorceror's apprentice shit
@narfnra yeah i wonder how long the euphoria of just the real concept of magic would last. like surely it wears off like anything, but damn it would take awhile to get used to being able to magick whatever i wanted to suit my needs.
