How do you know which path you're going to take if you haven't played the game before? It'd just be a 50% chance as you picked left or right.
... So I've been playing FFIVA lately, and for some reason, I started thinking. There are a few places where you have to go around something in one direction or another, while both paths are open and equal distance, to arrive at the same place. (For example, the Crystal room in Mysidia to get to the Tower of Prayers, or the throne room on the Moon and subsequent Crystal room to get to the entrance to the Lunar Subterranian.)
Anyway ...
When there are multiple, equal-distance paths to the same objective, which do you take? Do you always go to one side or the other? Or do you alternate?
I've found myself going different directions at random around obstacles, unless I have two of the same situations in a row (such as FFIV's Crystal Palace), in which case I'll alternate (such as going left around the throne and right around the Crystals, or vice-versa). And for some reason, I was wondering what everybody else does.

Chad took the words right out of my mouth. We don't know how far the paths are every time if we never played the game before. You should probably reword your question.Originally Posted by Sasquatch
Under the impression that I don't know how far each path really leads, and that I've never played the game before, I normally go left; simply because I am left-handed. If I know what's going on, then I'll just go to the path that I need to go to first, haha.

I think I usually go right. For some reason, I think I focus on that side more. The left side is practically invisible to me if both sides are identical. It may as well not be there. And it would feel wrong to go down that path.
i tend to go left when I first arrive somewhere new, hoping that it won't take me to my destination and I can have a wee explore, this is mostly because of the 2D platformers from the youth where it'd be left to right, so i kinda associate heading right with heading the way I'm supposed to be going
Bit of a stupid reason, but it's how I work it all the same. Can't say it always works that way, but old habits die hard etc
