Hyrule. Not sure why that was my first thought, there are monsters everywhere, you'd probably die...

Undertale... The residents are super friendly and won't TRY to kill you with the exception of like 3 of them. I realize I'd literally be dodging bullets every time I step outside of town, but I'm pretty nimble so it's worth it.

First thought was Spira/FFX.

WTF that's my favorite game but Spira is a TERRIBLE place to live!! Maybe X-2's Sinless Spira would be okay, but you still can't walk ten steps without running into some crazy ass Fiend there's no way.

Undertale is a pretty bad answer unless you plan to stay in the opening area forever, which would be a pretty boring life.

I am confused by the Celeste posts

Uh

Dinosaur Land...because "world" made me think of SMW.

It seems like, for me personally, at least, the phrasing (rather than the content) of the question usually determines my first thought

I guess, but what would make you think "y'know, I'd like to live on a scary, dangerous mountaintop" even as a momentary blip? Do you just really like strawberries?

Subverse. I mean, sure, the game isn't technically out yet, but that shouldn't be more than a technicality.

Again, the purpose of these topics is to name your first thought, not to try to come up with the correct answer. In this case, it was probably as simple as having the game already primed in my mind by the recent topic Most beautiful game ever in a contest.

It was also a notable inclusion in the itchio bundle, and I remember seeing at least one topic recently about someone beating some stage of it. So there were definitely avenues for it to be in mind.

Final Fantasy XIII. I'm into futuristic cities.

The Celeste answers are funny because afaik, Celeste's world is just "literally modern day Earth but with a slightly fictionalized version of a mountain in Canada"

Well, more than slightly fictionalized. I'd argue that makes it a pretty good place to live, regardless!

Anyways, the real reason I cited it first was because I went straight from my initial GotDotY vote to this topic. Or at least it felt that way; looking at the actual time increment, I must have been dwelling on said vote by means of related conversation and whatever else.

I don't know, maybe I've just forgotten which characteristics of Celeste Mountain are considered real as opposed to dreams or whatever within the lore. At the very least, I'm pretty sure the entire Mirror Temple is among the real elements, as a mountain-caused manifestation of Madeline's mind's characteristics. Combine that with the floating strawberries and Madeline's wild jumps and air dashes, all of which the Mirror Temple being real implies are also real, and it sure seems like Celeste Mountain as seen in the game is more than just a slightly fictionalized take on a real-life mountain. I fully admit I haven't yet played or even seen 8B, any of the C-sides, or more than a bit of Farewell, though, so maybe I'm just missing something from those.

Oh, sorry. It was hard to read your tone and I was legitimately worried I had totally missed something big for reasons I'd rather not get into right here, right now, so my bad.
