(Idea taken from a similar post I saw in Reddit a longer time ago)

I would probably get a knife in my ribs before I notice anything and be left to lie in the street πŸ˜…

Does D&D count? I could probably have a decent time finding some magic item and then just using it in daily life.

I have died of dysentery.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I die of heart attack, bleeding, poison and disease simultaneously near the entrance to the Darkest Dungeon

Darktide?

I'm either getting killed by Nurgle cultists, or by the Inquisition for being weird and knowing heretical words like "Democracy" and "Human Rights".

I'll need to build shelter , gather food, add defense and make a dam table to eat off of because we just crash landed on a planet and survived, but eating without a table is what sets me off!!

My cousin calls and asks if I want to go bowling.

Would be weird since my cousin is dead

I don't think anything changes as I've played Dirt Rally 2.0. Maybe I'll just die in a car crash.

Good thing it's not the game I played second last... noita.

It's (an) Earth, mid 18th century. Mega-Ghana is the world's leading great power, having crusaded both Christianity and Islam more or less out of existence centuries ago. The place that I actually live in real life was just conquered by England, although this problem is somewhat mitigated by the fact that the (Visigothic) king of Spain invaded England and renamed it to "Nouveau France" several centuries ago. Such is the nature of a multiplayer Paradox megacampaign

Eorzea isn't the worst fantasy world to be isekai'd into. I'd just set up in one of the capitals and try not to die

In the world as myself or as my character?

If as myself, i'll try to stay away from the US portion of Earth. They get attacked a lot. If as my character, I guess i'll just have to make a Captain's Log noting this strange phenomenon before giving the order to warp towards my next mission for Starfleet.

Life in Star Trek is easier than most, if you're in the right place.

I continue to press the buttons I'm told to, over and over again. Not much has changed.

Peglin? I can throw stones pretty well, but not sure I can do much against sentient walls

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

I design a one-way mission to the moon. It's a complex, 3-stage rocket designed to take 1 passenger as the payload. Our brave passenger is a Korok.

I'm in the Star Trek universe! Post scarcity and a chance to understand the mysteries of the universe and live twice as long? Sign me up.

I'd be deciding whether or not to start journey 3 or riding torrent around finishing things I didn't do. I can do whatever I want as Elden lord

Deep Rock Galactic, after playing around with the grapple I would fall to the ground and die.

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

Technically I'd be in Night City, but for the first few hours surrounded by homelessness and decay I'd likely be trying to figure out how I got to San Francisco again...

Astroneer!! I’m gonna be fine as long as I have oxygen.

I’m in feudal Japan during a civil war. I don’t speak any Japanese other than the lyrics to Mr. Roboto and I’m a foreigner. I’m probably dead.

The factory must grow. I need to figure out how to use the Logistics Train Network mod and build a new oil processing facility.

I'm fucked - Dead Cells.

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

Depending on where in the game I end up: realize I'm basically already dead, shotgun a bottle of bleach and die, or try to survive for a while, get bitten, drink bleach and die. Or just get eaten alive, or get food poisoning, or a cold, and die.

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

I would head to cabins outside muldruagh and survive on foraging and look the nearby dixie trailerpark

Some asshole chases me all around the map shooting rockets at me over and over again from a fucking flying motorcycle monstrosity.

Witcher 3, Velen. I'm immediately killed by a bandit or a Drowner.

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

Haha damn I'd be in Night City. I'd probably be getting mugged by some gangoons.

ROCK AND STONE BROTHERS

FOR KARL

Someone, get me a crowbar!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'd be killed by a monster straight from Hell in under 10 seconds unless I start moving and never stop. Never stop moving. Hopefully I can find a weapon and some body armour!

Vampire Survivors so I'm pretty much fucked.

Pros: I'd only have to solve puzzles, then defeat an AI god at puzzles in order to be born into the real world and become effectively immortal so long as I keep up maintenance on my robo-bod. It's easier than it sounds.

Cons: Most human media is lost to time. I would be alone except for the fellow robots I wake up, and a lot of them are apparently annoying. The work of restoring civilization rests entirely on my shoulders. Luckily, I'm immortal.

I would get killed by a Worm with a Bazooka, unless it's my turn first and I manage to kill it before it kills me.

RDR2.

I'll go ask Dutch if I make negative amount of money if I'm supposed to take 50% from the camp funds

Judging by what the people in this world are saying, being rolled up into a giant ball and lobbed into space isn't as bad as it sounds.

BALLOONS! Get'm!

Starship troopers in a bug hive. RIP.
