Ask Lemmy

Wastelands 3; that's a fuck no.

Bonus: depends on if it comes with super powers. If yes, then no. If no, then fuck no.

Bonus bonus: probably not, but I'd think about it for hours every night.

I guess I'd try to survive on rowa fruit in the northeast of Liurnia of the Lakes, but I doubt I'd last for more than a day or two.

Hogwarts, and I think I could survive just fine even without magic. Even if I do end up squatting in a house or trying to get work in the Hogwarts kitchens with the house elves.

I couldn’t remember the last time I played a video game.

I realized I’d showed my kids a browser version of Super Mario Bros after taking them to the movie.

No way I’d survive a year.

Yeah, I think I could survive in Ratchet and Clank.

And while on the subject: Dude, this game is seriously one of the best looking games I have ever played. It's like playing a legit Disney/Pixar film. I want to live inside it. It would be a dream come true to live inside a really good cartoon. 😄

Been replaying Fallout New Vegas, but with mods. I might survive for a year, but I'd be playing the game entirely different. No sense in making a name for myself or picking sides in a war for the dam.

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

Same as @HelixDab, System Shock would be bad, but as a regular person living in the world I could make it for $20 million. Citadel Station? Not a chance, not for all the money in the world.

Bonus Question: Fighting in a Mortal Kombat tournament? No. After a year of training I'm still going to die in the first round. No amount of money is enough.

Bonus Bonus Question: This previous questions were easy. This one's hard. I'm sure I could find a video-game world that would be pleasant to live in, potentially much better than our world, but I'd have to trade all of my family and friends for it. I'd strongly consider it if I found a world where I could be effectively immortal and have a good life as well—making it a very narrow set of options—but ultimately I'm not sure what my answer would be.

Just finished pikmin 1. If I'm just myself, then might be okay since wouldn't have to worry about all those bugs. But if I'm like olimar then that'd be tough.

Bonus question: nah

Bonus bonus question: Probably not, but if I had to pick the world of pokemon is calling my name.

Dave the Diver, super chill.

Man, my niece swore to me that if I gave Elden Ring a try I wouldn't regret it. I think she owes me 20 million dollars.

question the first: I'd accept, in Rimworld, my colonists usually last around a year or so before disease, war, or wild creatures get them.

question the second: hard pass.

question the third: I'd accept, and go to the final fantasy universe. as long as you're not the main character, small town residents are seemingly immortal.

Power Washing Simulator- pay me!!!! Wooo

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

Returnal

Fuuuuuck no.

Heck yeah! I’ll be living it up on my island in New Horizons. All I have to do is avoid tarantulas, scorpions, and wasps. I got this.

Dead by Daylight. No thanks.

Just started Skyrim for the first time ever. Assuming I'm me, A plain old human, not a dragon born chosen one. I may be ok? I can hopefully find some quiet village that isn't going to be ransacked by dragons or some clan. Honestly to have a little farm or something would be ideal and quite nice. I suppose I could use any real world mathematics or engineering knowledge to impress some leader. That might provide me some safety, or completely backfire as I could become of interest to other clans who want me obedience and knowledge or death.I'd also have like zero immunities to any diseases so maybe try to avoid people and take my chances as a hermit.

Dangerous? Certainly. Would I take the offer? Yes.

That said I can't figure out how to get mods working correctly. I've gone through the video guide process. I think I messed up somewhere in picking up some dependency things like SKSE and setting up proper pathing or something. I should probably just start over from scratch.

Tears of the Kingdom Question 1: maybe? Not as Link (can’t tell you how many times I’ve died). But as some random person in one of the cities, probably. Bonus: No. Especially since I’m sure I’d be controlled by some human like myself that never got into fighting games. Bonus 2: Nope. With all the faults of this world I love my family too much to leave them all behind.

Sure would, before I was playing blasphemous (masterpiece btw) but since, I began playing either .Hack Least recode for nostalgia reasons, so basically a Isekai Anime or manga common troupe, and mainly Sun Haven a super chill Stardew Valley-esque farm adventure sim. So yeah sure, happy to.

BQ1: No, im not confident on my body's will or my physical prowess to train for a year and then challenge champions.

Cod ww2 hardened mode 💀💀💀

First question: I'm playing Diablo IV, so hell no...

A big fat no to the other two as well. I'd stand no chance in MK, and I'm not very keen on leaving the wife and kids lol.

I think I could somehow survive one year of Kamurocho in the 80s. Hopefully I get subtitles!

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.

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.

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

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

Grounded? Nope, nope, nope nope nope.

Game before that was Sable, I could handle that.

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.

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

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

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.

Bondee's Barnyard?

Bro I don't actually have to go to the restaraunt

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.

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!
