The Last game I played was Splatoon 3. It really depends on a few things, Am I an Inkling/Octoling? Do I speak the language? Where am I? In Splatoon lore all humans died in mass floods, so if I was still human I would probably be studied. Also, if I'm in the middle of the ocean I would be screwed either way. Assuming that I am in a major city or at least near civilization, and I am an Inkling/Octoling, and I speak the language, I would be fine. As for what I would do, I would sign up to work at Grizco, and once I have enough money buy a gun and participate in turf wars to gain money, eventually buying an appartment.

I was playing Rogue Trader so unless I get to take over one of the PCs I'm pretty screwed. The 40k universe is not a friendly place. Even if I take over one of the party characters I'd probably still end up dead in some awful way. My character was a psycher so that's never a good idea if you want to remain demon free.

Fallout London. It'd be an intense half an hour trying to open inaccessible doors before I'd crash back to safety.

Ace Attorney (nostalgia). I'm not weird enough to be a witness, the perp, or the wrongfully accused. If I was the victim I'd obviously be screwed. If I was a defence attorney my clients would be screwed. If I was a judge everyone but me would be screwed. Payne seems to make an ok living as a prosecutor although he sucks at it, I could do that. Or I'd just be one of those weirdoes cheering in the gallery, or an unremarkable resident of Japanifornia, which would both be fine.

Uh, technically the last game I played is this 2D puzzle: https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/js/rect.html

So, with a bit of imagination:

I run for my life as walls and whole rooms shoot out of the ground in random locations.
But run where? There's a perimeter wall in all directions.
Eventually, I get trapped in a hallway. '5' it says on the floor. I can spot a '2' at the other end, before another wall slides up in front of it. The lights turn off.

A few more echos can be heard, before the lights flicker and a speaker drones "Completed!".

The lights turn back on, the walls and the '5' disappear.
A '3' reveals itself underneath my feet, and a '6’ right next to me. A wall shoots up between. What the hell do these numbers mean? And who operates this sick game?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago

Elden Ring, none of that is going well

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Farming simulator. So yea, pretty much the same as my daily life now

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

DayZ

Running zombies? Yeah that's a wrap.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'd be a Starfleet Fleet Admiral in 2410, with a bunch of very OP starships under my command, so that would be pretty damn sweet!

I'd be just fine. Perhaps I'll respawn once or twice but at least I'll have fun

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Borderlands. Yeah probably kinda screwed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Hearts of iron 4, yerrrrp it's over.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

No no no, I'd rather not be a three dimensional human in the world of Paper Mario. Bro turns into airplanes and boats. If they fold me like that, I'm in for a painful and uncharacteristic death in that game.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

Valheim. My homestead is beautiful and densely forested. I'm well equipped and have provisions for days. I'm good.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

GTAV online - I would totally end up being screwed with all of the mayhem in the public lobbies. I told my wife I think we'd probably be an unseen NPC homebodies never setting foot outside and ordering from the Pizza place. :)

If it was the GTAV Story mode, I think I'd be much better off and be part of the beach groups as I love the ocean IRL.

Earthbound

I better call my dad and eat this cookie while my friend gets his trout flavored yogurt ready

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Stellaris. I was getting destroyed by an empire that wanted to terminate me. So not good 😂

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Elden Ring. Welp, at least I guess i revive on death now?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Bad... Dark. Bleak. Lonely.

CoD MW III. I deleted it a few days ago…

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Euro Truck Simulator 2, so all things considered, pretty chill

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Snowrunner, so yeah, same. Maybe I'd be lonely after a while.

I'd have to learn how to appreciate body hair, as well as get better at dart tossing. Could be worse.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Cthulhu: Death May Die. So I'll probably go insane while killing cultists and whatever unspeakable horror is waiting this time. Should be a good time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

assuming im just me and don't have the abilities of runners then pretty screwed as last thing I played was the old genesis version of shadowrun. I have no cyberware or any real skills for the world

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

Phantasy Star Online? I'd be in great shape! I could essentially play that game indefinitely.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

dam, I loved that game on the Dreamcast, the colors and the music. The small room aspect was fine because dam that game was something special when it was new.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I played PlateUp. I guess I'm doomed to continually start a restaurant, only for it to fail as soon as one single person is unsatisfied.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago

Minecraft Survival? Well, I wasn't playing on hardcore, so I guess I'd be alright.

Or, hmm, on my phone, Pikmin Bloom. A vast army of adorable minions to accompany me as we wander around Chicago in search of public art; not so bad.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

SWTOR, I'd probably be fine as long as I stayed away from the ops hangars until I'd found a good set of armor.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Sable. I’d be good with it. Seems like a decent place to live. The jet bikes are rad and doing some sand fishing seems relaxing.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Tears of the Kingdom. Not bad at all, as long as I stay in places populated by the more friendly creatures. The worst thing about being stuck there is the choice between living in Tarrey Town, Hateno, or Kakariko. I could live a pretty comfortable life growing swift carrots or fortified pumpkins.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'd opt for Tarrey Town because I live near a place called Tarrey Town IRL and am sentimental like that, plus getting to build my own place instead of hoping I just became link and can take his and Zelda's house in Hateno.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Y'all sleeping on Lurelin Village.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Maybe if my cheese obsession was a fish obsession

Alas, I'm pretty sure I don't actually have the ability to taste the Umami side of sea food, so I'm actually incredibly averse to it.

Football Manager. I would be fired, but everything else would stay the same.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Descent, because some asshole playing Asteroids came and blew up the asteroid I was playing in from the outside before I could destroy the power reactor within...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (3 children)

AC Odyssey. I guess I'm Greek now

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Testikles would like to know your location

"This is exactly the same...well except for all the anal sex."

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Brick breaker.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Kerbal Space Program. So everything might be fine, or I might hit a mountain at mach 12, or I might be stuck on Moho forever hoping Matt Lowne joins Lemmy and can send the Blunderbirds to get me.

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

Baldur's Gate 3, I probably would be praising The Absolute.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Meanwhile me attempting the late game swoop on Mystra because Gale somehow managed to fuck up being the personal booty calls of one of the most powerful gods of the realm

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Pokemon, not bad could be much worse I was playing rimworld before that.
