    I can’t wait to visit Starfleet Medical to get my back and stomach fixed, live in a post scarcity utiopia, see other worlds, and study whatever I want.

    EDIT: I think the worst thing will be contemplating the metaphysics of transporters. But maybe I’ll just never take one.

      I feel like my life would t be any different. I’d be a wizzard with an annoying job dealing with people who don’t understand magic and all the familial obligations.

      I’d be fine, which is nice, but I’d just be me in another universe.

      Maybe I’d be longing for a less weird universe. And that makes me sad.

      So I guess I would t like to live in Discworld universe. I wouldn’t be the wyrdest person there.

        Need to be careful during the day, as well. And no eating Dibbler’s sausages!

    Star Trek? Hell yeah. The Borg might be a small problem and the Klingon, but no cooking, no cleaning, no need for money.

      Avoid the null zones and be a peaceful asteroid miner? Oh, and try to make enough to pay some mercs. Just in case

        I’d be fine as a capsuleer but the odds of being a normal human in that universe are astronomically high.

    I’m definitely dead the moment the Vogons destroy Earth to make room for a hyperspace bypass.

    My favorite fictional universe is Star Trek, but right now I’m really into The Expanse and that’s probably more interesting.

      I am a trekie too. I only hope to not get reincarnated on one of the planets that got razed to the ground for backgroundstory.
      Additionally it could be devastating for the federation if one trekkie gets assimilated by borg

    Elder Scrolls… So here’s hoping I land somewhere in Cyrodiil with a long gap in between major catastrophic events.

    Pokemon seems awful

    Ever present terrorism, most towns don’t have food

    Animal attacks are more common and dangerous

      If you take them at face value and not as a gamified abstraction, sure. “Pallet Town” having three buildings is unlivable but it isn’t shown that way in non-game media.

      The organized crime is rough but that usually gets sorted out by a child at some point so just keep your head down.

      These terrorist organizations are at least nice enough to let you attempt to capture a relatively weak pikachu for over a decade. My boss gets mad if I go over my 15 minute coffee break.

        Not up to date on pokemon lore by a longshot but iirc Jessey and James are actually just nice people who really like pokemon and do their jobs badly on purpose.

      The anime version seemed pretty nice. I actually got pretty depressed for a few days when I was a kid and realized I would never live in that world.

    Brandon Sanderson’s cosmere. Kinda even chances between being instantly killed, enslaved, selling my soul to make a living or being stuck in the same office job I already have, but this time I’m Magneto.

      Of all the worlds we’ve seen, when and where would you prefer to be put, assuming you have the same likelihood as a random person to have access to the magic system)?

      I would probably want to be put on either Sel (specifically the area with soul stamps from the emperor’s soul, since that’s the only magic I can think of that everyone can use) or the world from Yumi and the nightmare painter (since that’s just a relatively normal near-modern city).

        It’s a really shitty decision but I’d probably go for the shattered plains pre-Alethi, I absolutely love the vibes of the chasms and exploring with esshondai sounds fun. Just gotta remember to gtfo before dalinar shows up for the second time and hope I don’t get murked by a salty ancestor looking for a meat suit

        That’s a tough question. Nalthis would be cool - technically, anyone there can Awaken as well, as long as you accumulate enough Breaths, which also give you cool passive bonuses. But also I want to see magic powered spaceships, and we don’t have enough books set in late eras yet.

      Good news! You appear as adult Feruchemist with full metalminds. Bad news, you’ve just been kidnapped by a bunch of Steel Inquisitors.

        With full steel and iron, and knowledge of the lynchpin spike, you might be able to take them all out before running out, depending on how much steel you have.
