I've been trying out a couple different settings for where my MC/story starts off and I really don't want to be cliche. Even though the most cliche seems to work best. My MC starts off in a small village/town farmer type, quiet life. His 18th birthday upon him and the promised answers his father made him wait till now for, will soon be revealed. Jump starting the story.
I've also tried this with a family owned bar opening, main city rich folk and one other. The quiet farm life seemed to work best but i feel its also the most cliche. Was hoping to get some feedback/suggestions on possible start settings in a medieval time period. And, do you think the quiet life farmer prototype is outplayed? Or, is it something you would still enjoy getting into?
