"If you could take a video game character on a platonic date, who would it be, and where would you go?"

I would take Maureen (Full Throttle) to the Land of The Dead* to have lunch with Glottis, just so I could sit in on a conversation between them.

(* - I know, technically we'd have to be dead to go there, but I figure if I'm going on a date with a video character, I must be dead anyway.)

 

[Ulteriorpanzie]

I would love to go on a date with a certain group of sisters from a certain Hunter’s Keep. As for where I would take them? Why, to Hell of course! If there is one thing the devils are known for its hospitality, so long as you are willing to pay for it anyway.

 

[SammyTheLibrarian]

I'd love to go laserquesting at a local place with Samus. See if that aim translates!

 

[Magesa]

Lohse from Divinity Original Sin 2. I'd take her to a play at the school where I work. Afterward we would hang out with the kiddos while helping strike the set, and she'd become the coolest older sister for all of them immediately.

Kerillian from Vermintide to NYC. Would love to see a Warhammer elf's response to what modern 'mayflies' can build.

 

[Vaesse]

I'd follow Alistair (from Dragon Age Origins) anywhere. Go anywhere, do anything. That would be perfect.

If for any reason, he was unavailable, I'd also accept Jakarn (from ESO) as a substitute. Again, I would rather follow his plans than make any myself.

 

[Cernunnas]

I'd go with Mr. Veils to watch some bloody sports at Kargath Bladefist's arena. Hell yeah.

 

[SteveChev]

I’d take Laura Croft unharnessed, outdoor, rock climbing…she’d probabaly have to carry me…but it’s the idea that counts, right?

 

[AxelDominatoR]

April Ryan, from The Longest Journey.
I would take her on a picnic in Zangarmash.

 

[Elementalfoxgoddess]

Link. We would visit the Temple of Time and use the Ocarina of Time to visit other worlds if possible.

 

[LondonUnited]

"If you could take a video game character on a platonic date, who would it be, and where would you go?"​

I'd take George Stobbart from the Broken Sword series to the opening of a bijou art gallery in Paris, with a nice little stop at an obscure cafe afterwards. What could possibly go wrong?

 

[khoshekh7958]

I would go with Fuuka (persona 3) to a cooking class + wine tasting!

 

[Xelgaex]

I'd go for a hike with Lara Croft.

 

[spectralsphere]

I would take Balthasar Gelt on a fun-filled trip to Fort Knox. I think we could really witness gold magic.

 

[cancerso]

I'd take Kassandra to the thermal baths of Budapest

 

[Varcel]

Y'Shtola from FF14, and we'd go to the Last Stand in Sharlayan.

 

[Unreal Master 77_Seven]

I'd be down to go Tomb Raiding with Lara Croft. She's got a lot of character, and I love that accent. Plus, she couldn't refuse an exciting adventure.

 

[RoseoftheSea]

Easy, I'd take Evie Frye book shopping in all the weirdest quirky book shops in London.

 

[curiousCalembour]

If i could take a video game character on a non-romantic date I would probably take Mae from NITW to the strangest pizza parlor nearby, and then we could probably go to some woods and spray paint some ruins!

 

[Dehno]

I'm guessing a fair few people know Flanker, from the Sorcery games? We could go on a walk, see the forest, reminisce on how he tried to kill me twice, pick some flowers, and overall have a great time!

 

[DreamAndDeath]

Jack, the main character from Bioshock. I'd get him to take me to Nusr-Et Steakhouse, in Knightsbridge, London. It's one of the most expensive restaurants around and I'd ask if he "would kindly" pay the bill.

 

[Victorinox]

I would probably take Morrigan (Dragon Age Origins) to Carillon from the Reach (Sunless Skies). Before we date, she needs to pay penance. After that first date will be on the terrace (I remember a something terrace in there)

 

[Zolana]

I'd have to pick Gus from Stardew Valley - seems like such a genuine guy. We'd probably spend the day fishing at the mountain lake to the north east of Pelican Town.

 

[CodextheBoffin]

If I could take a video game character on a date and where? Honestly? Outside of taking G'raha Tia to Ishgard, probably the Outsider from Dishonored? He would not at all be into me, but like, that's fine, dude have an ice cream cone. Just something eerily mundane, because I think it would be hysterical.

 

[Obstinado]

"If you could take a video game character on a platonic date, who would it be, and where would you go?"​

Yorda, from ICO.
We'd go for a walk, hand in hand, along the edge of a beach. I would even make her a sand couch so she could rest comfortably.
