Nice try, raider. I’m staying in the vault.

I think there are too many factors to account for to give a good answer.

But realistically: If the walled city was stable (relative to what I knowz I can only compare things to what I know and have experienced) and my life was alright or better then or course I would stay. If I had kids in that city I would probably stay.

If it was a shitty life inside those walls, of course I would find a way to stealthily leave.

Depends on if the colossal Titan and armored Titan breaks through the wall. And I become radicalized at the sight of my mother being eaten that forces me to bring about the downfall of all humanity.

Is that you, Eren?

I’d suspect there’s something I’m not being told but I wouldn’t be brave enough to find out

depends on how difficult it is to leave?

If you look at space.

We are on a walled sphere, and my entire life I’ve been told I can’t survive in space.

Would I visit space? Sure… but I can’t get there.

Shit. There are no walls keeping me in, and no one is telling me the world outside is dangerous, but I barely ever leave anyway. When I do leave, it’s only to a small handful of relatively close places where I feel comfortable.

OP go watch the movie The Village

I am disabled and unable to drive thus holding a proper job is difficult.

i’ve been on an effective island with ‘visits’ to ‘the outside’ on rare occasions and largely when picking up things from lowes or family functions.

What you ask is not a hypothetical for me.

All it takes is for leadership to slip up one time to start questioning everything else they told you. Like learning the tooth fairy doesn’t exist, casting doubt on the easter bunny and Santa Claus - except there’s incentives for belief. Would I go on with the charade while harbouring doubts? Escape entirely? Depends.

At the very least I’d carve a glory hole in the wall.

Depends on how small or hard/easy life is there. I would argue that there is a sweet spot where if life is just hard enough to keep you busy but comfortable enough to keep you satisfied, most would never care. Too hard and there will be those who would take the risk, too comfortable and there would be those who would seek it out.

Personally if I lived my exact same life but in that city, I would go out at least once.

Depends if there were dumb lumbering giants outside that would eat me, ‘Attack on Titan’ style.

I’d probably go insane from living around that many humans. Normal cities are awful for me, I can’t imagine being in one I can never leave.
