By universe, I'm talking a TV show, Anime, Graphical Novel, Cartoon, Movie, a book, heck even time travel.

The good place. Seems like a decent place to exist

[-] OwOarchist@pawb.social 6 points 4 months ago

A universe where basically everyone goes to 'the bad place' to be tortured for all eternity?

[-] Cethin@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

After they fix the errors, sure. Alternatively, with the group we watch would be nice. Before they fix the problems, and everyone is tortured by demons for eternity? I'll pass.

Fork these shirtballs

I'd say either pokemon or very hungry caterpillar

[-] Poojabber@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

The pokemon world would be an absolutely terrifying place.... wild beasts running around with powers capable of essentially dropping nukes on command, if not planet or universe destroying powers. Even if we assumed all the pokemon low level, they could pretty much all dominate humans with no problem. Caterpie would have you wrapped in a cocoon and be feasting on your inards before you even had the time to consider running.

Since the question doesn't force me to do it, just says I "could" do it, I would choose to not do it.

Would be pretty shitty to disappear, abandoning your family/friends/partner/kids, even if your new life would be nice.

Seems like everyone else in the thread is jumping at the opportunity to go pick up some milk though. :P

Let’s do hard mode.

Alice in Borderland.

Leap into the world of Quantom Leap, because how funny would it be leaping into the guy who is leaping into other guys/gals.

I need to know more about it. Is this a "you get to be part of the main crew" thing, or just "you exist in that universe?" Because it'd be cool if I could be a Bob-like AI in the Bobiverse, but if I were simply transported into the Bobiverse in 2026 well... I'm not sure I'd even notice.

[-] nicgentile@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

You could be an obscure person referenced once every while or you could be the main person. Dealers choice.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 7 points 4 months ago

Star Trek TNG Picard anytime.

If not that, I'll happily go for the Orville as well

Either the one from the Robot and Monk series (psalm for the wild built by Becky Chambers) or the Culture series.

[-] Mothra@mander.xyz 6 points 4 months ago

So you ask us to isekai and to tell you which, but you don't say if we get powers or not.

Take Overlord for example. I would love to, but, do I arrive there as a level 100 player or am I another regular human?

I would probably also love any DnD setting, say Baldurs Gate 3 to give a specific example. But again, under which conditions do I materialize in my chosen universe?

Giving you a general answer, I think I'd be happy in any high fantasy setting provided I'm in good health and can harness many of the special magic skills and abilities the main characters have.

Being more specific though, I find that what I really like is universes that really value craftsmanship and the arts, which is something that keeps eroding in this reality we live in. It's not just being somewhere with magic, it's being somewhere I can design, create, use and give to others items that are beautiful and treasured.

You want to be a psychic zombie strapped to a life support machine powered by thousands of dead psykers?

Okay now that I put it like that it seems metal as fuck.

Make sure to read up on parenting before acquiring adult sons.
