Depends on context. Do I get fantastic powers or just regular "dump 'em in the middle of somewhere and let them figure it out"?
If the former, I gotta fix that Harry Potter world. It ticks me off.
If the latter, a version of reality where people stay true to their ideals and don't just spot random bullshit. It might be better, it might be worse, I want to see the difference.
Stardew Valley is pretty laid-back and low-stakes. Relationships are incredibly easy--just give them a fish or a rock or whatever. I could get into it.
I love the world of TES 3: Morrowind. It's amazing mixture of green plains, harsh deserts, mountains, swamps, sea shores, islands, hills and all between sprinkled with alien like vegetation. Not sure if I wanted to live there forever (with all the slavery, undead and wild beasts), but ever since I played it for the first time I absolitely fell in love with the world and its atmosphere.
Discworld
LoTR would be hella cool to live in, especially in The Shire.
I would absolutely love to just chill with my hobbit friends, tend to the fields, then either party or have a lovely dinner party at night and head back to my hobbit hole. Then wake n bake in the morning and do it all over again!
Post-Catacendre Scadrial would be nice.
Sailor moon. I watched it originally in high school and I'm still a huge fan, I would love to be in crystal Tokyo.
My fiancee is a huge Sailor Moon fan I took her to Hikawa shrine in japan last year. We saw a couple other local sailor moon locations too it was great. The day after I took her to the waterfall at the base of Tokyo tower and proposed to her.
I don't personally, but would you like to learn about reality shifting, where people really believe they can do this?
Hyrule, preferably the version from Breath of the Wild. I mean, yes there is the whole Ganon thing and one shouldn't go too close to the castle, but the rest of the kingdom is pretty chill, and apparently you can make an easy living by just lazy foraging in the countryside, or by selling a handful of acorns and bugs at random stables, or by growing a grand total of eight pumpkins.
I'll take a life as a homeless but well-fed drifter on horseback anytime over ... this. gestures vaguely at the current state of the world
For a world that are post apocalyptic, Hyrule sure seems relatively chill tbh. But obviously i will choose pre-apocalyptic Hyrule
Pern!
Although the person who picked the Culture is absolutely on to something.
Wow! I wasn't the first one! I want a fire-lizard. Granted, I also want a dragon, but that seems overly presumptuous.
My own, tbh. I guess any writer that does escapist type fantasy kinda wants to live there.
But, generally (and in keeping with your question more), not as an adult. When I was younger, absolutely. Xanth was my favorite place in the fictional world for a few years. It seemed like the perfect place to escape the ugliness of the real world.
Would you describe that world to us? Man I still remember having wild imagination as a child... I don't think I can do that now that I'm older...
honestly, you can! its a skill and if you work at it and practice, your mind can really open up.
Hobbington
Star Trek. I want to live in a post-scarcity society with incredible technology.
How about the Simpsons? A fictitious America where a man can own a house and provide for his family with one job.
Not fictitious. That's how it was in the late 80's before the full aftereffects of reaganomics kicked in.
Fine, what's a TV show based in '80s America? The Americans! Just a nice, stress-free American family life in the suburbs.
Roshar!
If it's a hundred years or so before book events, and not in Vorin kingdoms (Azir maybe?) then sure. Scadrial during Elendel era would offer a better quality of life though.
Let's see how Wind and Truth ends first lol
The movie from studio Ghibli Whisper of the Heart is so beautiful I wish I can live there :(
Ghibli studio man....
One of the only happy tears that happened in my life is probably when I watched Howl's Moving Castle. The sound track, the beautiful animation... I just can't
