    I would too.

    Take my life and take me into Tamriel.

    This is me being real for a minute, no BS.

    This is a tough choice for me.
    I can't say IRL is amazing, but I have some things here I'm not willing to compromise on, ever.

    My main is a projection of my inner self into virtual spaces, how I appear and exist in other worlds.
    I've had essentially the same main (and name) through all Bethesda games, or any game whenever the option to create my own avatar is provided.
    Would I love to be her? Absolutely. She is everything that I am not IRL.
    And it's an odd realization, but I don't feel she and I are necessarily "separate"
    We share the same mind obviously, she just has a WAY better container for her brain than I do ;)

    But for all the power, beauty, holdings and millions of gold she has, there are some priceless treasures I have IRL that she does not.

    So, if I can pull a "Mora" and edit the deal I would add in that I could bring certain loved ones with me into Nirn.

    Otherwise, no deal. I'll stay divided.

    No edits.

    Would you be her?

    Think about it.

    Sure if i was like the Vestige and I just respawn after death. :D

    Yep, you get everything the Vestige does... but could you give up your life now?

    If the deal's like that then yes, of course. Everybody here would be better off without me anyway.

    If you truly feel that last piece then please do call someone. I don't know which country you are in but most have support just a chat away. This is invariably not true. Life can make us feel awful but we always overestimate the bad and understimate the good. It's actually built into us and it's for our survival. We are roughly 75% pre-disposed to negativity. You know why? Because way back when we were on the Savannah it was vital we didn't go "oh what a pretty flower" and instead went "is that a lion?"

    You want proof? I'll give you proof. Let's talk a teeny tiny part of your whole life. You have over 1k 'awesomes' to your post. Over 1k times you have made someones day. In this teeny tiny part of your life.

    Call someone. Or msg me if you really can't.

    If the deal contains all skills of my main, including immortality and instantly forming a new body out of nothing if necessary, I would.

    Otherwise I think it's better to enjoy this world's amenities in safety.
    This, you died lots of times in ESO.
    On the other side Immortality or simpler radical life extension is an trillion dollar business.
    Getting old and the option to never die is tempting.
    Even you have to work as an npc 8 hour a day.

    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    🤔 idk have you seen the prices of just an apple at grocer? It might be hard to make a living.

    I have enough gold for an apple, but that's just me.

    Take me outta here and let's go to Tamriel.

    Got to think about long term prospects. How long will your gold feed you? How will you make a living? Have you seen quest rewards? Being an adventure doesn't pay well

    Are you guaranteed housing? What about lighting and Heating? What happens if you get sick?

    I've thought about this and I have many houses and many ways to bake my apples... but that's just me.

    I would much rather live in Tamriel. I would give my life up in an instant to swap with my main, but that's just me.

    I don't begrudge anyone who would choose their life right now... and in fact, I would be jealous.

    Tamriel has given more to me in the past 7 years than this real life has.


    Ok im no Psychology expert here but that last line suggests there's some deeper meaning to this, though i hope im wrong.

    If it means leaving my SO and sibling behind? No, I could never do such a thing to them. My life hasn't been easy nor is today, but I know they would be devastaded if I just vanished.

    If I could take them with me, then yes.

    Y'know, it's really enlightening that so many don't want to leave family, loves, friends.

    I would leave my entire family (what's left of them) behind instant;ly. All they've ever done is denigrate me, put down my life choices (which they are now also doing to my daughter and granddaughters as well), and make snide sarcastic slams at where I live, who I am married to, etc etc ad infinitum ad nauseam.

    I do have to say that I would not head for Tamriel right now - my husband of nearly 50 years has health issues (hell, he's 89 - that's kind of expected). But once he's in his grave, yes. I would move into any one of my many girls in a heartbeat.

    Too bad too sad, it's just a dream - a fantasy.

    [Oh, and y'know what else? I would REALLY LOVE to live long enough and be healthy enough to actually go to Mars.... I mean, if you're going to dream, dream big.]

    in a heartbeat. Would miss my family and friends, though they'd be better off- especially knowing I wasn't living every day in physical agony anymore and in a way that doesn't involve death. sorta morbid I guess, but damn- spend the rest of my life in pain I can't cure? or be a lizard wizard?

    I choose Lizard Wizard.

    If I exchanged lives with my main... well.... that'll be something else. I'd be a Breton, a vampire, and have power over magic. If I play my cards right I'll live forever, but then have a desire for blood... hmmm...

    On one hand I'd love it, but on the other it's not going to be easy lol.

    Even as the Vestige I'd never want to live in tamriel. Daedra ruling over the world pretty much, make it a no no. I could be tortured for eternity as the Vestige.

    Evry citizen in Tamriel is also insane, more or less. Ayleides first, when they praised Daedra.

    Elder Scrolls is evil incarnate eh.

    I know that since I played Skyrim, I was a newcomer back then.

    Nah, ESO game mecanics are great, and the world is brutally catching my mind...when I am on earth in all safety that is.

    To each its own though.

    I don't know, it feels like Tamriels existence is threatened a bit too often for my taste.

    If the whole "GodHead Dream" theory is actually real, then Nirn's existence is constantly threatened. The God could always wake up.

    As for me. To be a female Khajiit living in Elsweyr, proficient in dual wielding blades and Archery, (and possibly a Chef since Provisioning is maxed). Being the Moon Hollowed, having close friends in high places such as Mane Shazah, Queen Khamira, and the local Imperial Garrison in Senchal. Living on the banks of the river in Rawl'kha with a dense, colorful garden, flowering trees, Ember my lightning slinging confidant and a large comfy bed with sunlight filtering thru the windows in abundance? The only thing missing is to find a socially awkward Nord with a heart of gold to dote on.

    Pro: You can be immortal if you have enough soul gems

    Cons: Pretty much everything else. Unless you like eating Jugged Rabbit while dodging vampires, werewolves, zombies, and even killer insect swarms, while avoiding being enslaved by Molag Bal, the Worm Cult, Sheogorath, or some petty tyrant, only to be killed by another person for wearing red, yellow, or blue in the wrong zone and then get teabagged.
