I'm excited to see if I can channel. Of course, the reds will try to kill me if I succeed... but still worth a shot!

Pokemon fans can go to dog fighting to understand why they might not be as happy as they think. Also imagine that some of the dogs can electrocute, burn and drown other dogs. Also, sometimes they put a chihuahua against a great dane.

Half-Life

Actually just fully fucked.

Can I suddenly be a Star Trek fan?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

no.

I don't make the rules, sorry.

Go one better. Iain Banks' Culture.

Horizon Zero Dawn/Forbidden West, so I would do okay, depending on the tribe I lived with and staying away from killer robots.

Dropping Mr Bean in there is genius.

The factory must grow!

Can I still play OSRS Mobile if I'm stuck in RuneScape? If not, I'm screwed

Safest bet is to be a child in Skyrim.

Not sure if there's any mods left on the main sites to make them killable.

There probably are, but a lot of the big ones pulled the plug due to some very unwanted side effects.

Star Trek? Hell yeah. The Borg might be a small problem and the Klingon, but no cooking, no cleaning, no need for money.

Being turned into a Gorn breeding sack? Kinda into it

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (4 children)

I consider the Borg to be a goal, not a problem.

Life in the Discworld wouldn't be so bad, most people seem to have an OK life.

Unless you are poor and in Ankh-Morpork...

Pokemon seems awful

Ever present terrorism, most towns don’t have food

Animal attacks are more common and dangerous

[–] [email protected] 1 points 18 hours ago

The anime version seemed pretty nice. I actually got pretty depressed for a few days when I was a kid and realized I would never live in that world.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

If you take them at face value and not as a gamified abstraction, sure. "Pallet Town" having three buildings is unlivable but it isn't shown that way in non-game media.

The organized crime is rough but that usually gets sorted out by a child at some point so just keep your head down.

Each zelda game is wildly different when it comes to the state of the world so i can't say for sure. All i know is i need to protect my pots from that maniac in green

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago

Just leave the area and come back to your pots being respawned. Infinite money glitch

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Hide a chicken in one of the pots, never have trouble with that maniac again.

I can’t wait to visit Starfleet Medical to get my back and stomach fixed, live in a post scarcity utiopia, see other worlds, and study whatever I want.

EDIT: I think the worst thing will be contemplating the metaphysics of transporters. But maybe I’ll just never take one.

I'll just pick a light-hearted high fantasy setting with casual reality warping...

Gotta be one of those

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Fallout is shitty but doable, I like the idea of rebuilding society and I like the technology.

That said, with he new show lore, if VaultTec is able to just keep nuking things that sprout up then ig it's pointless.

I'm an old man in D&D? Yeah, I'm dead

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Which is far less of a problem in D&D

I'm definitely dead the moment the Vogons destroy Earth to make room for a hyperspace bypass.

I'm not certain if I'd be more fucked in Factorio, The Elder Scrolls, Terraria, or Stardew Valley. I'd be fucked either way though since I assume I'd be a rando off screen, and not the main character
