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 think living in post nuclear armageddon Nevada would fix me

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

Warframe. Seems like there's some stability in some of the planets' different cities. I'm not far into the game, so I'm not sure what might happen.

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

Pokémon Sun. Basically Hawaii with better healthcare. I'll probably survive.

I'll be homesick for the extreme four season climate I'm used to before too long, though. I just got back from a trip to Hawaii, and even just a week of it was bordering on too long.

At any rate, happy to answer this question today rather than two weeks earlier. I'd be better off in Alola than trying to survive alone shipwrecked on Nauvis.

Trombone Champ. I'd be in a marching band. Again.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (3 children)

Cyberpunk. I'd be a corpslave... ain't no way I'd survive anything else.

FFXIV. I'll probably go to one of the cities to work as farmer or something like that. Doesn't look like they have a need for programmer there.

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

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.

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

Probably become a vegetable from the brain damage/concussions/broken spine. Rocket league.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Strange Horticulture...I'm probably fine.

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

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

I would be in Mario Kart... pretty sure I would look for Yoshi or Birdo at the lockers after, if you know what I mean...

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

Rainworld. Yeah i'm screwed.

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

Civ VI? I dunno... maybe this is it?

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

Timberborn. Humans died out and beavers are now the dominant species. So, I guess it could be worse..

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

Mini Metro.

Guess who has two thumbs and is stuck on the train all day?

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

Last game was Wordle..so.....

[–] [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] 3 points 3 months ago

TOTK. If I was a random villager I'd probably be OK.

If I was Link I'd die to the first red Bokoblin I encountered.

If I was Ganondorf I'd be twiddling my thumbs waiting as Link got sidetracked by side questing and "hey I bet there's something cool at the top of this cliff".

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

Mine is Hearthstone, so my life basically just becomes Yu-Gi-Oh? I have to wander around Azeroth getting challenged by weirdos to increasingly elaborate children's card game battles?

I typically make high legend on ladder though, so I guess I'm okay with this life.

Earthbound

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

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

Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires; it would really depend on if I were an officer or not, and then if I had a name or not. Best case scenario I worm my way into an out of the way post in the Wei clan and hold one mantra in mind: "Do not pursue Lu Bu".

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

Hearts of iron 4, yerrrrp it's over.

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

Do I get the ability to build things instantly like the protagonist of factorio? If I'm suddenly stuck on a planet with super hostile aliens and I have to build automatic weapons and flamethrowers from pure iron ore with my current skills, uhhh, yeah I'm in trouble.

Playing Eve Online as I post this.

If I'm a baseline human, I am screwed. If I am a capsuleer - well, I'm actually going to have to learn how to fly a spaceship "for real", but hey, at least I'm immortal.

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

Starfield… Meh not sure if anywhere would be good because I have to walk to everywhere (until recently) and pirates are bothering me randomly

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

Black Mesa /// I’m F’d.

[–] [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] 2 points 4 months ago

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

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

Borderlands. Yeah probably kinda screwed.

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

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?

Minetest, backrooms test. I would not die, but being alone in the world, and walking monotoneous corridors would quickly destroy my sanity.

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

Fallout 4 ... So pretty screwed

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

Escape from Tarkov. Yeah, I'll be dead shortly.

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

The long dark.

Assuming the game mechanics are still in place? I'll be fine. Maybe I'll even live a few years on the Great Bear island.

However, if I am in that scenario with real world mechanics? I'm Fucking dead, so hard, so fast. Then again I guess the wildlife would be less aggressive and maybe people would actually be around. Still probably dead, though.

Shapez 2

It takes place in (outer) space so presumably I'd die pretty quickly.
