What game is it and how are you doing?

BONUS QUESTION: He instead offers you $1 billion if you go to the Mortal Kombat universe, join the tournament and survive. He'll have Raiden train you for a year, then the blood splatters. Do you accept?

BONUS BONUS QUESTION: He offers to send you to a video game world of your choosing, only you can never come back home or contact anyone here ever again, not even with in-universe abilities. Do you accept and, if so, which one?

Power Washing Simulator- pay me!!!! Wooo

[-] mlc894@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Oh boy, a year in Tears of the Kingdom… I might maybe last a year? If I settle in Hateno or somewhere settled?

[-] ImmortanStalin@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I already stress out keeping up with the workload and multitasking. A year in the world of Overcooked would be just another year.

[-] yaycupcake@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

Need more info before I accept or not. Does time IRL freeze? Or do I miss a year of real life time?

If I miss a year then nah because that's logistical nightmares and a LOT of explaining. Plus all my stuff would probably be lost if I stop paying rent because I'm non existent for a year, including legal documents etc.

If IRL time stops though, yeah I'd take it. Last played Ensemble Stars which is a game about idols. So the world they live in is more or less just normal modern day Earth.

Anyway I need to know the situation with IRL while I'm gone, OP.

I would not take the further deals because I'm disabled for the first one, and because I have people and things I like IRL for the second.

Just bought elden ring during summer sales, maybe not a good idea

[-] plantedworld@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I mean, do you still get credit for surviving if you resurrect every time?

[-] imrichyouknow@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I probably won’t, the last video game I played was Minecraft, I can’t imagine myself surviving such harsh environment.

Amnesia: The Bunker. Absolutely fucking not

[-] _number8_@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

absolutely; i believe the last game was some VR fishing game where you just hang out on a boat

[-] remus989@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

God no. I couldn't hack it in the insanity of Bramble...

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Grounded? Nope, nope, nope nope nope.

Game before that was Sable, I could handle that.

[-] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Pretty sure the last thing I played that wasn't Boggle Plus for the Gameboy was Ace Combat 4. Seems like it would be ok, like an alternate reality version of here, but from the early 2000's. No problem. As long as I'm nust existing, not a main character.

Forever? The Mojave Wasteland from New Vegas. Man, I love that game. I'd be getting my Dine and Dash perk in no time.

[-] SuddenTrash@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Just completed Red Dead 2, and I've been thinking how cool it'd be... Would probably die of black lung pretty quickly though lol

[-] daddyjones@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Mario kart tour, so yes because people don't die in that. Definitely no to the bonus questions.

[-] dodgypast@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago

Returnal, so I'd definitely survive but at what cost to my mental health.

[-] hikaru755@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Outer Wilds. Not sure what to make of this, but I guess I would be fine? (I'm not through yet, so please don't spoil anything in the comments)

The game before that would be Plague Tale: Requiem, and nah, I won't take my chances with that

[-] ThatsOurLastBowl@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Would a year ever really pass in Outer Wilds?

[-] FollyDolly@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'm playing The Long Dark right now, so no thank you times 10. (It's a very hard survival game set in northern Canadian during winter.)

[-] Godort@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Question 1.

Tears of the Kingdom. Assuming that I'm just some dude living in one of the settlements then I'm probably fine for a year. If I have to save Hyrule I'm fucked.

Question 2.

Absolutely not. Shao Khan would rip my soul out within the first day.

Question 3.

Living in an Animal Crossing game sounds pretty attractive. You spend a bit of time catching bugs and digging up bells to pay your no-deadline, no-interest mortgage and have the rest of the time to just pursue your hobbies.

[-] SweetSitty@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Lurelin village would also be great. I'd go fishing all day and teach them how to make hammocks.

I would also definitely go to live in animal crossing, but that was before I became a parent. Now, there's no way I'd leave them forever. Even a year would be really hard.

[-] iconic_admin@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Pillars of eternity. My party of 6 professional adventurers die all the time. Don’t think I’d do ok.

If Chess counts, hell no. I suck at chess and they’re going to make me a pawn.

If its “real games”, then yeah I think I could live in Hateno Village for a year and be alright.

[-] SgtAStrawberry@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

20 million $ to go back to 1939 yeah sure. Do I get to pick the country or how does that work?

But I say no to both bonus questions.

[-] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Eh, I'll be fine. I'll kick it in Seyda Neen for a bit and head to Balmora. Probably wouldn't adventure too hard since I can't just reload my last save, but may fall in with the Mages because I'd like to learn some Magic while I'm there.

Edit: Oh shit wait! I forgot I dusted off the GBC on Friday! Yeah you bet I'll take 20mil to throw balls at animals and ride a bike for a year! I'm omw to Pallet Town!

[-] ulu_mulu@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Do I get to live as the classes I play?

I mean, game I'm currently playing is GW2, if I had to be out in the wilds of open world as the normal regular human being I am I probably wouldn't survive 10 minutes (noone would I believe), tho if I get to live as the class I'm currently playing I would be very well suited to go anywhere without dying.

If not, I could still live well by staying in capital cities, tho it could become a bit boring.

BONUS: no, just because I never played Mortal Combat so no idea how it is.

BONUS BONUS: I think I would accept but I would be torn between WoW and GW2 worlds.
