and why?
Minecraft with mods. Tasty food, unlimited creation, tons of stuff to try
Minecraft really has the most creative potential of any game I can think of, especially when you include mods.
Include computercraft and you can set up a connection back to the real world!
Stardew Valley. Laid back, no real responsibilities, plenty to occupy myself with, easy to make friends or to ignore people, tasty foods.
I’d get stuck in the mines
A helpful neighbor will bring you home!
With mods you won’t get bored ever
Animal Crossing.
Chill AF, rarely deal with other people, most dangerous thing in the entire universe makes you look silly until you sleep it off.
Constant debt to a racoon.
Sure, however, no interest and his kids will buy literally anything I bring.
“Here’s $1000 for this basket of fruit and the couch you found on your walk in the woods!”
How is that different to my life right now?
You would have friends in animal crossing.
Add internet access to travel to other islands and you get a pretty decent social life. The coffee shop is pretty chill too.
I’m fine being a Disney Princess and hanging out with the animals. Brewster is definitely a bro, though.
Just the pigeon milk is a bit disturbing when you find out it’s actually a thing.
Immortality can be scary. Eternity is an unfathomably long time. SCP-7179
Especially toward the end.
I’d say the lack of stimulus is the scarier thing there. The world is a vast thing, and even if you could live long enough to experience everything that exists now… huge amounts of new things to experience would have been created in the mean time.
And that’s just our planet. There is a paralyzingly large amount of things to experience in the universe.
Wait, so like, do we just play the game forever? Or are we actually going into the game world?
Can we break the boundaries of the game mechanics since we’re now “inside” it? Or are we still limited to what the game lets us do?
Exactly this. If it is just playing the game within the existing mechanics, then no thanks, I would rather remain mortal.
Somebody asking the real questions. We demand answers!
Yes.
Cyberpunk. Lots to do, and ostensibly all the other video games in VR.
Idk I feel like if I want to visit a hustle or die dystopia I just go outside
Well yes but if you get to be the protagonist, aka the winner in a world of only winners and losers, that’s fine. I’m sure I wouldn’t hate capitalism as much if I were filthy rich and a beneficent of the system
There’s no good ending.
Well if you are becoming V, then yes it sucks either way. But V isn’t exactly filthy rich, they are just some random merc decked out in cyberware. I was more thinking being someone like the arasakas. Or some other nepotism profiteer living the good life
Meh, even so, do you really wanna be Saburo? Watching your back constantly, watching your kids vie for your seat waiting for you to croak, seeking eternal life through different bodies as some microchip construct knowing basically anyone would smash that shit to bits if they felt they could get away with it to gain power.
It doesn’t sound that great to me either because I’m not sure even a normal, finite life in such a world isn’t too much already.
If I had to be someone I’d prefer to be a nomad living out in the desert with my fam, somewhat isolated, rely on each other, far away from corporations and their wars.
Or maybe I’d be a celebrity living in North Oak like Kerry, but even then, there’s a good chance some cyberpsycho guns you down while you’re out on the town in your snazzy new Caliburn to buy a latte, at last some brief relief from that one fucking ad with the dude screaming.
To be honest the one
from phantom liberty
Where V gets cured of the Relic by NUSA, especially if you just ignore V’s stupidity in trying to go back to Night City for some reason even though if you’re a nomad she would’ve only been there for like a few months total and actually imagine her being a semi-developed 23 year old adult who’d make the rational choice of just staying in DC in a cushy job away from the madness.
is pretty good.
You want to live in a universe where the corporations always win and the best you can hope for is going out in an awesome, but ultimately futile blaze of glory?
Some mmo where they keep adding stuff. Because my fucking god would it get boring after doing the same game 24/7 after a few years. If that is not allowed I’ll go with one of those 18+ rated sex games. At least I won’t be bored and horny.
Depends. Do I get cheat codes? If so, GTA:V. Get an awesome pad, planes, cars, helicopters. Can go on a rampage if I want or play games (golf, bowling, etc) and then just wipe it all away by dropping my wanted status to zero.
Clearly the only correct answer is dead or alive extreme beach volleyball.
Buncha queers in here or something SMH.
/s
The original pong… Wait no…
Too late, your continued existance is the left paddle.
Ha, ha, fucking loser left paddle! Right paddle is where it’s at.
Darn. Soooo anyone want to join me as the right panel? I got cookies.
Probably something like RuneScape, not because I particularly like playing it, but more so because that game is one of the least likely to ever be shut down. The idea of living out my afterlife all alone in an abandoned or offline game is terrifying.
Can I choose the 249 mods?
Dwarf Fortress would probably provide the most diverse experiences. Not necessarily good ones, mind you.
Satisfactory or No Man’s Sky
