Which one would you pick?

Note that if the series get new entries in the future, they're also fair game.

Smash because its an entire hobby unto itself.

Being limited to one single player franchise might as well be nothing.

WoW or Elder Scrolls seem like the safe pick. Would probably lean WoW.

Apparently the Trails series still has like 20 years worth of games or something so that would tide you over nicely.

It depends on how you would define "video game series". Depending on the definition, I could easily just say Mario and not only still play all the classic 2D/3D platformer titles, but also stuff like Mario Kart, Mario Party, and the RPG's. I'm assuming spin-off series are their own separate thing, though. Since you never mentioned any rule in regards to "watching video games", I could just easily make my decision on "which great video game series would I still want to play that I wouldn't get enough satisfaction from watching a playthrough?". So stuff like Persona and Final Fantasy I could just want on Youtube and still enjoy the story and characters.

Actually if Let's Play's are still allowed for series we didn't pick, then I probably would pick some multiplayer game like Smash or something. Didn't think about that.

I don't see why picking MMO would be cheating.

As for spin-offs, etc., well, I didn't intend the topic to be pedantic but for me personally if a spin-off series have two games or more, it's counted as its own series.

Why?
Thought about that world in Odin Sphere will be kind of interesting to bring it like real life of fantasy parts. Just the whole universe along with the fights of helping out against evil would made it a ton better.

Oh wait does this topic only mean just video game series in general? If so I forgot all about that answer which I thought it meant just any game not a series.

EDIT: changing answer I'll pick Soul Calibur for that choice instead for the series.

Sorry about that mistake.

Even though I would probably regret it, I guess Final Fantasy. It's still going fairly strong, has a ton of titles, and two of those are MMO's so you'll get multiplayer and singleplayer experiences from it.

Mario. A bunch of different genres, and the main games are just a joy to play. No long-winded cut-scenes every two seconds that are all badly written.

Seriously, even the games with the supposedly best stories are laughably silly to me.

If saying Warcraft gets me both WoW and Hearthstone, that's a slam dunk pick. I'd also entertain Elder Scrolls/Fallout and Civilization. Basically, I'd want something with a ton of replayability, so either long-running RPGs or strategy games, or some kind of sports or sports-like game.

Civilization or Mario probably have the most replayability to them, out of series that I enjoy with a number of entries.

But in all honesty, league of legends and its spinoffs is pretty tempting too.

Yep. Out of the few series that have so many games I really really like, it has some of the most replayable ones, and is still producing games I care about for the forseeable future.
