Lux Aeterna Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) Okay, after a lengthy string of thoughts I came to a brilliant idea. Okay, first of all, you know how some games have New Game+, right? And how that means you get bonuses (or in some cases you're the same stats and start the game over). Well, I was thinking of P4's NG+, where certain stats (such as the social ones: knowledge, diligence, etc) are kept. So that made me wonder. If we died, and were given the chance to NG+ on our own lives... Would you do it? And what would it be like--in other words, what do you think the NG+ would entail? And how would you use these "bonuses"? D'oh yeah, my own opinion: it depends on how my life turned out. If it was good and satisfactory at the end, I'd probably just leave it at that. But if it ended badly, I'd probably just take my life in a completely different direction for the most part, just to see how unlike the last life it would turn out. (If it was NG+ for me, I'd probably just retain all my knowledge. ... I'd be regarded as a child prodigy I guess, considering I'd have the knowledge of someone much older in a 2 year old body) Edited February 14, 2011 by Lux Aeterna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I probably would. It would be weird and amazing, kind of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whase Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 no, I'd rather forget this life and start over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleph Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I'd NG+ with codes on and make a complete fool of myself while secretly being the best. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original Alear Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I would only do it if I was reborn as a fully clothed adult a la Athena springing out of Zeus's head fully armored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnd Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 almost definitely, to correct all the mistakes I've made. Then after the first few mistakes corrected, your life becomes something completely different and you start committing even bigger mistakes than in the first time. Also, a secret organization of people aware of the existence of NG+ users notices your suspicious actions and makes your life a living hell.

Furby Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) I'm living in my NG+ now. Saddly, I took one of the cheap ass quick ends in the last game, so I didn't really get much out of it. Got this awesome ass computer when I got my old equipment back, though. I am going to use this chance to grind up in the TV, though. Edited February 14, 2011 by Furby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fayt Zelpher Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I'd warpskip to Lavos and beat the game in 30 minutes. After that, I'm not really sure what I'd do. I guess I'd take up some hobbies or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Alear Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 A thought just occurred to me. If we died, and were given the chance to NG+ on our own lives... Would you do it? You don't get a new game plus if you die! You only get a new game plus if you beat your life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In bad endings that aren't game overs the protag might die, but you could still get an NG+. Edited February 15, 2011 by Lux Aeterna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inactive Account Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Would much rather just have the ability to retroactively punch myself in the face a few times in order to avoid doing some stupid things. Of course that would probably significantly alter events, and the timeline would end up all unrecognizable and crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkhead Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) Yay mini Einstein. Would our memories be retained from our previous life if we choose to start again? That would actually be very handy, and quite an advantage. Edited February 15, 2011 by Junes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deleted35362 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I would do that now to get away from this shitty life and hopefully I'd be reborn less of an oversensitive turd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
