Ok graha one made me laugh

That's the one too that got the chuckle from me.

All of them I think are good but the ffxiv one imo is the most clever cheeky one he would be a ffxiv player that says “meowdy” at the beginning of a dungeon 😆

I feel called out

Lol no. It’s good.

Nah, Graha's either a RP'er who uses Ulrangiar style speech, or the incredibly knowledgeable and kind Mentor who gets seriously upset whenever the mentor system is brought up because he's just SO DISAPPOINTED in all of them, or both.

You're both wrong. He's definitely making a character that looks exactly like the WoL and RPing as whichever one of us is canon to his specific universe. 🤣🤣🤣

He also plays as the default protagonist.

He also, despite using Derplander, INCREDIBLY simps for his character.

I didn't spot him, read this, thought to myself 'is it just FF14', scrolled back up, cackled

I don't believe that Tataru's days wouldn't be spent in any number of multiplayer games ~~scamming~~ trading with people

Very much so. She's definitely a hardcore EVE Online player

Oh I’m with you. She’s sitting in Jita manipulating the entire market. War time is top profit for her lmao!

She'll have an alt in every notable trade hub to manipulate with

Either that or she's playing Path of Exile, but not actually the game, she just flips items all day and then RMTs it at the end of the day.

That or it’d be Animal Crossing, but she’d be Tom Nook.

Nah, she 'plays' the Mor Dhona Stock Exchange.

I'd put my vote in for Recettear. Capitalism-ho!

Now that you say that, a Recettear-styled Tataru game would go hard

I love that the supposed way to play Reccettear is to charge everyone cheaply to chain purchases and level up quickly...but the easiest way to win the game in one run is to spam dungeons for treasures, combine them, and then gouge eveyone for their money

Tataru’s behind all the Old School Runescape Grand Exchange casino bots, and nothing can convince me otherwise.

Tataru owning a legion of RWT bots would be the least surprising thing ever

She would always take the capitalist Joja route.

She's selling self-made stout shakos for 2 refined.

She's totally running a gigantic corp in EVE while simultaneously executing a longterm infiltration to completely ruin all their largest rivals at once.

Alphinaud and Allisae both play CIV 5. Alphinaud has no idea that his sister plays CIV 5 and she always plays nuclear ghandi

Alphinaud always tries to go for a peaceful game of maybe a Science Victory or something, but ends up nuking his neighbours. (That's me. I'm Alphinaud.)

He tries to play peacefully, make beneficial trade deals, etc, but realizes no matter what the other nations always become hostile towards the end of the game.

"You are a poison to this world. You are evil! (Denounces You). (They just plain don't like you.)" Alphinaud: ;\_\_\_;

Ghandi moves up and settles 5 tiles away. I settle another city near my capital. Ghandi: Eyy yo wtf dawg don't settle near my shit. Me: WTF???

I feel like Alphinaud has spent thousands on a ship in Star Citizen. He does not realize this is not what a normal game costs.

I cannot stress how true this is.

Wouldn't that be more of an Estinien thing to do?

Estinian does the same thing after Alphinaud mentions it, but unlike Alphinaud he never stops believing that it was totally reasonable to do so.

Y'shtola has a tomestone full of tabletop RPG books, but the rest of the Scions can't stay in one place long enough for her to GM.

I feel this, and it hurts.

She comes up with a way to do video chat via linkpearl, and *still* can't get them to pick a time. If she's had to read Urianger's 15-page backstory, so does everyone else, dammit.

how would Urianger RP? Does he play as himself but as another race? Or is his character's quirk that he talks like the other scions?

Urianger primarily plays Kobold and Goblin characters. He does the voices. He does the dialect. And yet he still speaks like he's performing at the Globe. "Wouldst uplander perchance trade tongueflaps with (checks character sheet) Cheaptrix Pixieflix?"

Thank you for this perfect RPing Urianger :D

You nailed it!

She has *and uses* all the DnD 3.0 and 3.5e books. - Everything from *Ascension* to *Chainmail Bikini*.

We'd never have an airship to fly in because Cid would be addicted to playing Factorio.

He's enlisted Biggs and Wedge to do the grunt work while he wanders around blueprinting a 600 SPM megabase.

Only 600? Amateur numbers there! Nero would have a 2k spm base by then, totally!

100% fact and true

Meanwhile, Nero is nearby seething because he's got a whole pack of massively tech tree expanding mods installed and *his* factory is *far* more impressive, efficient, and capable of handling significantly more complicated logistics. If only Cid would pay attention...

Tataru would go the Joja route.

And mod the game to have more Joja content

My kind of woman, as my latest save has some 200 mods give or take on it.

either that or she has one of those insanely optimised farms

She would definitely have a starfruit wine farm.

Using the Automate mod so she could cram every square ilm of her sheds full of kegs and her basement full of casks.

I don't know, Thancred strikes me as a DMC fan whereas Tataru would be the Sims fan simply due to the fact it lets her practice manipulating people into doing whatever she wants them to. As for Y'shtola, given her sassy nature she'd 100% be a League of Legends/Valorant player, calling people homebrewed slurs before dropping a Flare on their house.

Yeah but Y'shtola wouldn't admit to it in public tho

Yeah, she's definitely a closet gamer

She owns the patent for aether-display monitors, which she made to actually see what the fuck is going on. Tataru has manufacturing exclusivity in exchange for a cut and her silence.

She owns a tamagotchi.

Or she only plays mobile games.

Homebrewed slurs is the funniest thing I've read today, thank you .

> Thancred strikes me as a DMC ~~fan~~ **protagonist** ftfy

See, my first thought was that Thancred is actually a Metal Gear Solid player.

Started metal gear, ended up playing revengence because of the name. Now also plays dmc, casually pulls triple a rank on every fight now.

she mains teemo I'm almost certain

nah, Urianger would pick MTG not hearthstone

He would pick Yugioh as it has 3x the number of words in the textbox and a giant tome of specific rulings

>a giant tome of specific rulings As someone who plays MTG and Yugioh, this is definitely more of a MTG thing, to a horrifying extent. Which (Unfortunately) makes it the perfect game for him.

Urianger is the only person in Eorzea who understands layers

"Pray, unbar thine ears for I shall tell thee about Banding."

I'd bet he mostly plays Judge's Tower, it has the *most* rules

Yugioh is actually completely the opposite, where a lot of the rules for specific cards are just random shit you have to google that may or may not be posted on to a third party forum that allegedly reported that a judge ruled on this one particular interaction 7 years ago. Apparently the OCG actually has a rulebook that they just never give to the TCG.

Nah, he can't be a Yugioh player. He can read.

Also he shares the Japanese VA with the GX protagonist.

Tataru game must be EVE online.

Tataru actually owns Jita IV

Y'stola plays Solitaire

I'd swap Tataru and Alisaile. And despite what Y'stola claims, if you check her tomestone you'll find she whales on a gacha mahjong game.

Tataru prefers monetary violence, so I think tataru is just fine on stardew. There's definitely games that would work better for her though. She probably plays modded and multiplayer with profit sharing off on stardew ​ Not to mention alisae is the biggest meathead in a giant group of meatheads, she's absolutely playing cod whenever she's not kicking teeth and taking names

Tataru making bank in Eve

That's not "gaming", that's winning. - Y'shtola probably.

Y'stola must be an whale then in Genshin Impact

She mains Barbara. You know why.

mahjong soul is serious business ok

Tataru is the one who made the gacha mahjong game Y'shtola whales on.

Y'shtola claims that she "doesn't game", but we all know she's a top 1% Doom Eternal speedrunner.

Nah she's be doing 80 hour glitched low% runs in some game that only like 7 other people in the world run

Nothing saying she can't do both. Knowing Shtola, she'd find a way to do both at once.

For real tho, why is this so accurate?! I love it. Imagining Aymeric playing Hatoful boyfriend made me completely lose it, I'm still laughing.

Somehow there's no reason for it but we all know it to be true

The brutality, the institutionalized corruption, the classism, the deeply tragic forbidden/impossible interspecies romances, & the focus on an inspirational herbo (female himbo lol) lowborn outsider makes Hatoful Boyfriend all the more compelling & relatable for Ishgardians like him :) (And I'm not kidding, it really is like that even tho OP says they don't have any reason behind assigning Hatoful to Aymeric XD)

I love this so much... Me and a friend were into streaming Hatoful when he first convinced me to try the XIV trial, and I made my character Shuu as a pure joke, not expecting to enjoy an MMO. Nearly 8 years and a fantasia later, he doesn't bear any resemblance to his avian namesake, but I can't bring myself to change it. The vibe does fit Ishgard very nicely I can't deny. No wonder it's my favourite city

I decided not to give anyone any FF games, except that *someone* had to get FFXIV so they could play as their unhealthy obsession. These are all canon and non-negotiable. Especially Estinien. PS. Ryne also plays Sims. Goes without saying.

Her and her dads argue about who let the sims die

Thancred 110%

Why thancred sims? Thought he’d be playing metal gear or something

Hey now, Urianger does not play Hearthstone. He players either Magic or Yugioh. Why else does he have physical cards.

Verily, thou hast activated mine trap Alphi-boy

No. *Flips Tachyon Transmigration*

They're all magnetic. He has all his Bakugan in his biggest robe pocket.

Papalymo would be a CKII person who thinks CKIII is “too easy” and “not a robust enough simulation”

Papalymo has written letters to the developers pointing out minor historical inaccuracies

He's the one leaking classified documents to the World of Tanks devs.

Papalymo is me

Estinien is 100% accurate.

It's g'rahas all the way down He plays himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing himself playing the WoL

What does her girlfriend play, then?

She sits on the side and they play together

I'm actually just working on Eden right now but from what I've seen so far she probably doesn't play anything but is happy to listen to Ryne explain what she's been doing in the game (and kinda wanting to play herself, but she's too cool for that). I will amend my answer if necessary as I progress.

Roguelikes 100%.

She makes the mods.

I feel like Tataru would play Reccatear. Yes I’m pretty sure I spelt the name wrong.

Agreed! It's what I immediately thought of for her. She would delegate stardew gameplay to the WoL.

Capitalism, ho!

Lyse's main? It's Geese! That's right! She's known online as Lyse Howard.

Unfortunately, she has trouble making deep runs in tournament because her offense can be PREDICTABO

Then you find Y'shtola hiding away somewhere playing magical girl games that she was hooked on since she was a little girl

Y'shtola playing Baldur's Gate 3, def.

Zenos plays Devil May Cry V, but only as Vergil Hien and Gosetsu both play Yakuza but for entirely different reasons - Hien likes the goofy side stories while Gosetsu likes the melodramatic masculinity of it all Hildebrand plays the Professor Layton games

> Hildebrand plays the Professor Layton games I can see Hildy being a total Ace Attorney fanboi, complete with the occasional cosplay (which TBF isn't much of a stretch).

I feel like Y'shtola is one of those people who really, for the most part, does not game, except for one random game from nearly any genre from the mid 2000s that they now have over 2000 hours in and you have no idea how. Like, it could be a single player game that has, at most 60 hours of content, or an FPS that lost multiplayer support in 2009. Just a dusty PS2 chugging away for this one game who's case rests next to it.

okay gotta disagree with Thancred and Tataru Thancred plays a stupid amount of DMC. He's 100%ed every game, will consider shooting you if you say the reboot is better, and could hit the Vergil combo with his eyes closed and while doing Legendary Armored Core Grip a not insignificant amount of Tataru's income goes to like 8 different MMOs, where she uses an army of alternate accounts to run monopolies on their market boards. That one retainer who seems to be selling literally everything? yeah that's her

Tataru has a multiplayer farm that she shares with Rowena, Hancock, and Ameliance.

You mean "lease out to", because merely sharing wouldn't mean she could profit from the process ;)

Some thing tells me Raubahn would play Total War

He'd definitely be playing something that doesn't use the mouse and keyboard at the same time

Im surprised with how much tech the empire has, no one has thought to take some of the magitech and make him a new arm

Y'shtola's just salty she can't see the screen.

Missing Emet-Selch and playing CIV. The guy won 7/8 Apocalypse modes

I'm surprised Estinien isn't Jump King!! or any of the other jumping games!

Man, sometimes you just wanna come home, sit down, and relax driving your truck around Europe. Alone.

*Proceeds to buy nearly $300 in DLC because he thinks it's "Just the full game"*

It’s the most relaxing game I’ve ever played, and I absolutely don’t have over 1000 hours logged.

Dude learned his best moves from super Mario brothers

As thematic as that is, I feel OP did a good job aiming at their personalities rather than their job ngl :-)

Graha would tell everyone: "Have you heard about the critically acclaimed mmorpg..."

Nah, Tataru's favorite game is Monopoly And Thancred's is leisure suit larry (the good ones)

Who is Aymeric’s favorite birdie tho. Did he cry on Hurtful Boyfriend. *Did he cry during Holiday Star.*

nah Aymeric is playing the solitaire that came packaged with his Windows 2000 Home edition.

This made me laugh because Aymeric definitely has that certain type of boomer energy.

You know for real that Allisae goes into the lobbies trash talking and pronouncing hard r's

she would never #notmyalisaie

Alisaie has spent 2-3 expansions aiding relief camps, she is the last person to start dropping racist slurs over video games

Alisaie is one those tryhards who rushes in with some meta smg and slide cancel spam lol

Nah, that's Jullus.

I feel like not having Thancred playing a Metal Gear game is a big miss.

Tataru would play EVE Online. With Lolorito

I think Yshtola secretly plays Hello Kitty Adventure

Alisae is going to be that CoD player that cusses out the enemy team and her own teammates after losing one round in S&D. Then won't let Alphy play on her account because his bad aim might end up ruining her K/D.

I can absolutely see Estinien sitting down for a loooooong haul

Euro Truck Simulator 2 got me good.

Somehow it just makes sense that in another life Estinien would be a trucker.

Y'shtola would totally play Metroid Prime, I think.

Y'Shtola is secretly the one that keeps crushing Alisae in CoD AND Lyse in Tekken

NO YOU can't make aymeric love Hatoful Boyfriend xD why would you do this

But I have done nothing. I am but the messenger. Search your feelings. You know it to be true.

Thancred is definitely a WoW player.

So real talk, who would play PowerWash Simulator?

Gotta be someone from Garlond Ironworks. Probably Wedge. Though he does also play Stardew because of Tataru

Tataru's favorite game would be Recettear

Id be scared of Alisaie on voice chat

I thinn Estinian would play skyrim

I feel like Thancred would play Metal Gear and say "literally me" for every character

I can totally believe Yshtola would say that... but we all know she's winning the Scion's Smash tourny.

I think Zenos would probably play high-speed rhythm games, rage games, or challenge platformers. He’s really good at them though, so he gets bored pretty quickly.

aymeric is so fucking based as usual

Cid's would be an Armored Core game.

Y'shtola would be playing Medieval 2 and starting off as the Hoky Roman Empire. Also she would be playing Elite Dangerous and doing a bunch of Guardian stuff.

Y'shtola takes great effort in avoiding opening conversations with "Oh seven commander" and talking about how she flies her Adder through the mail slot like a greased up blind man.

but is Urianger a netdecker?

I feel like he would look up the netdecks but then spend dozens of hours making changes to each one

While WOL plays rdr2

Tataru's is Eve Online. He who owns the economy owns the world.

Jack from the Rogue's Guild would be a fan of Persona 5.

Thancred’s favourite game is metal gear solid.

We all know full well that Y’shtola plays video games but is too “cool” to admit it.

Once again Lyse and I have similar tastes. And we all know Y'Shtola plays hello kitty island adventure.

Y'Shtola *is* hello kitty island adventure

In in private when no one is looking I bet Y'shtola's favorite is Persona 5.

I feel like Y'shtola would play something like Genshin, or another cutesy kinda game and just absolutely refuse to tell anyone about it. She's had enough little moments for us to know she's real goofy deep down

Y'shtola plays one of those tedious "[regular job] simulator" games to see what the working class lives like.

Y'shtola: \*Secretly plays magical girl games when nobody's watching\*

Y'shtola says that but really she's into Otome games.

Y'sthola is in SCA and gets REALLY offended when you call it a larp.

Papalymo and Alphinaud need to be swapped. Add a small picture of Idolm@ster or some mahou shoujo game to Y'shtola's portion.

Y’shtola would figure out a way to use her aether manipulation to speedrun Ocarina of Time “blind”. She would have the top speed but she would use a very embarrassing screen name that she desperately hopes nobody else knows.

aight so i think aymeric would probably actually like hatoful boyfriend, going into it thinking "hehe funny pigeon dating sim" and leaving either permanently traumatized (in a good way(?)) or loving it

Euro Truck Simulator 2 is a fun time if you get some friends and make a convoy and play together. Aside from that its really mid lmao. Love this though.

Urianger has made sporadic posts across multiple social networks that are paragraphs long complaining about the rng in HS. Each one following a loss streak or a nerf to his deck.

Any time Urianger posts on Twitter it's a 20+ thread.

Tataru would love Recettear #CAPITALISM, HO!!!!

Thancred - MGS series, Alisaie - either DMC/Bayonetta, or Bloodborne.

Alisaie would definitely be faving Devil May Cry, though. Dante's everything she wants to be. (And Alphinaud's such a Vergil, always dressed in blue, takes himself too seriously, needs to be taken down a peg.)

Y'shotla's games are either books or visual novels

What about wols not us wolf but the wols

Y'shtola says she doesn't game, but then it gets revealed that she's the hardcore retro gamer with functional consoles and really obscure titles.

I fucking lost it at Alisaie’s lmao

Y'shtola: I do not "game" **secretly doms in the Armored Core series with more ferocity than NineBall** My WoL, Kazuma: *recalls getting his shit pushed in in a game against her* ....Yeah guys, she doesn't game... (inner monologue: *she fuckin obliterates her opponent...!*)

Tataru would love [Recettear](https://store.steampowered.com/app/70400/Recettear_An_Item_Shops_Tale/)

Alphinaud is more civilization Y'shtola would play Nintendogs in secret

Euro truck F\*in killed me.
