A random thought that’s been stuck in my head for sometime. Also sorry if this is in the wrong place, I wasn’t sure where else to put this and I’ve just joined the forum right now.
Floyd collect rent now!
It’s hard to pick one, but I’ll go with Lettice from Bee. Lettice is a young girl, so she would probably not stay on top of building maintenance. I wouldn’t hold this against her. My partner is an art educator, so I’m sure that they would hit it off.
It’s going well!
My sister would probably be slightly more of a hardass than I’d prefer, tbh.
It’s definitely hard to pick an all-time favorite NPC out of all the many games I’ve played, but the first character to pop into my head was Dr. Sliss[1], and uh… I don’t think it’s going well.
admittedly probably because I once stole her name for a tabletop roleplaying PC who was also a somewhat unhinged lizard woman ↩︎
The titular Prince Quisborne from How Prince Quisborne the Feckless Shook His Title would be my current favourite, it’s going great! Especially after his entire journey of self discovery and appreciating the plights of common people, I think he would be sympathetic. I’m also not sure if he understands money all that well.
That’s true. You probably would somehow end up being his landlord, lol…
I accidentally deleted the original post so sorry about that. For me personally, I have been replaying Blue Lacuna and i have no idea how good Progue would be as a landlord, but I can think of many who would be a whole lot worse…
That’s odd, I can still see the original post at this link. Maybe it got undeleted by the mods? It might be better to merge these two threads just so all the discussion is in one place. I’m having fun reading it, heh.
A message comes in over your communications interface: “PRISM, this is Doctor Perelman. As you probably already know, this facility is very large, and expensive to operate. In order to raise funds to keep you running, I’m going to have to ask you to devote a portion of your processing power to mining Bitcoin. Also, we’re going to introduce a new service, called ‘ChatPRISM.’ Some questions will appear on your terminal in your apartment in Simulation Mode. Please answer them as quickly as you can.”
I think the protagonist of Violet would plain forget to charge me anything, but Violet herself would not lol
I think Violet would be very firm but very fair. Also, any repair work would be remedied immediately.
I’m so sorry, I’m very new to the forum so I accidentally discarded something and I thought that was the original Fred. Clearly, I didn’t. I’ll see if I can try and merge.
Renting a room from Mrs. Pepper seemed like a pretty good deal. She’s a bit cranky, but I really don’t see her that much. The rent is cheap, and it’s a nice house that’s close to everything. But she’s very strict about the off-limits parts of the house, and there are a lot of weird noises at night.
No worries, it’s already merged.
My landlord won’t ask me for the rent directly. He’ll meow and jump up on the table and sit next to my wallet and start licking his paw.
Other times he’ll sniff at specific things, or rub his back against a specific door. It’s like he’s trying to tell me something.
(This is the cat from Robin & Orchid. Possibly named Gideon.)
I thought that renting a room from my college buddy Martin seemed like a sound enough proposition, but there’s a giraffe in my bathroom and I have to solve a tap-dancing puzzle every time I want to go outside.
Here are a few more of my ideas:
Master Brice (The Bat): oh no! I’d be in charge of him and nothing would get done. He’d probably forget to charge me and if he did, it’d be something different each time. He’d also be very hard to contact. Hard 0/10
Alex/Andra (Counterfit Monkey): if both of them were in charge of the property they would constantly be arguing over what to charge and ground rules. I think I would rather have Andra though, I think she’d be able to help if something went wrong without panicking. 5/10
Violet (Violet): as I’ve said above I think she’d be firm about ground rules and wouldn’t take excuses for anything. However everything would be done quickly and she’d be easy to get hold of too. Just don’t invite Juia round. Ever. 9/10
Progue (Blue Lacuna): honestly pretty good, just don’t break anything on perpous, not pay or break any rules. Only thing is I’d definitely befriend him and talk with him for hours in the kitchen or something. 7/10
Grunk (Lost Pig): probably sweet and funny, but complete chaos. He’d charge you the wrong amount at the wrong time, enter the property randomly and probably when I’m asleep, and any damages would be caused by him possibly making an existing issue 100 times worse. Also he would not know how contracts work. 1/10.
I feel like Bryce Wyatt owns dozens of properties throughout New Gothenburg that he’s never set foot in himself. You just get a letter once a year to let you know rent is increasing by $100 per month.
The Predator would never charge rent, but he would require you to allow cameras to watch you for the first three months of your residency. Of course, he’d allow you to remove the cameras after that.
