>>46156649Depends entirely on if you could actually die while exploring. I think the PMD games really handwave all the actual dangerous shit that comes with being an explorer because if you get KO'd you just insta teleport back home, but if you try applying even some basic real logic and turn the PMD world from an idealized, child-proof playground to more of a standard isekai with actual death, slavers, what have you, being an explorer turns from just being a fun vehicle to put yourself in silly situations to being probably the most dangerous job available.
A more edgy take on the PMD world would be a lot of fun though, but if I were put in that situation the most I'd amount to is a low level explorer who maybe mostly does escort missions and captures petty thieves.
