Ask Lemmy

Borderlands. Yeah probably kinda screwed.

Friends vs Friends. I would have a fun life.

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.

Spiderman 2.

I live in the suburbs of Chicago. Not much changes, except the super elite have some insane tech that might as well be magic. Oh, and I guess super powers are real.

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

Black Mesa /// I’m F’d.

Space Engineers scrapyard scenario. So... Satreus has oxygen, so as long as I can scavenge a power source to power my suit recyclers, there's not a lot that'll be a problem. Wander around collecting stuff. Make a comfy habitat.

Calisto protocol. Yeah I'm dead I'm a terrible way.

Hearts of iron 4, yerrrrp it's over.

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?

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.

Earthbound

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

Lately, I have little time so the only thing I play is smash bros with my wife when she wants to. I would not fare well as "squishy desk worker man"

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

Shapez 2

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

ANIMAL CROSSING LETS FUCKING GOOOOO

Bad... Dark. Bleak. Lonely.

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

Caveblazers

I'd be dead quickly.

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

Oh geez, I'd be in Silent Hill 1's Midwich Elementary School. I'm gonna have to fight the kids and roaches and the lizard boss to get out.

Hoplite or Chess, I'd be so fucked 😅

Last game I played was.. I forgor, but let's just say Final Fantasy XII almost a month ago, since that's my best guess.

The lead protagonist is a 17 year old twink with a cheese wedge for hair, and, overall.. not very strong. I can confidently say I'm a little stronger. So, can I survive in Ivalice? Probably.

In fact, I could probably enjoy it. Looming threat of an empire trying to gain control over my home? Big whoop. I'm killing tomato guys. Adjusting may prove a little difficult, though. Distant past, and all.. but, hey. Airships. Magic. Being Captain Basch. What am I losing here? Not much.

..I daresay this is an improvement.

..But let's say I'm transported to Horizon. The other recent play. Spoilers.

Within the context of Horizon, it's literally this universe in the future. This bodes well. However, giant fucking metal animals. Perhaps Aloy could turn me into an adept fighter, I don't know. Still.. giant fucking metal animals. I died a lot in the game, and, therefore, assume that's most universes. Aloy, though, doesn't seem like the type to brand me a curse and burn me at the stake. I live!

I exist as a very, very rare "Old One" who actually lived in the past and isn't a psychopath.. completely.

Being an Old One, I hold knowledge. Lots of knowledge. The Focus existing gives me access to a level of technology that I should have no business messing with. I'm brainrotted and need therapy. Certainly an interesting addition to the world.

I assume I drop within the latest existing point in the universe. So, Londra is dead, thank fuck. Most immediate threat, vanquished. Issue: Nemesis. I don't even know what Nemesis is, but it sounds.. cataclysmic. This is slightly stressful. However, the power of the third game existing, and definitely having an ending where you beat Nemesis, will provide peace of mind going forward into this unknown. That's right, Sylens. Aloy was right to stay. I'm the genius, now.

I could also get down with this. Not as comfortably as FFXII, but possibly more fun. The future is yesterday! A mix of distant past and far future. Interesting.

Core keeper, not too bad if I stay near the core and chill

Deep rock galactic, there's no way I'm not getting eaten

Ace Combat 7, which has an A-10 that can somehow achieve supersonic speeds and 40 UGBs... really depends on how many ground targets there are compared to air targets, as it's not the most maneuverable.

Hades II

Death to Chronos!

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

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.

Well I guess I would probably just stand very still, move forward one or two squares... and probably die. I guess if I ever move I might just stand face to face with a black dude until the end of my life.

Not sure how to feel about it tbh.

War on the Sea

Considering I'm a programmer with the physical characteristics of spaghetti, I'd be really screwed if I ended up on a USN vessel in WW2.

Tarkov, I don't like my odds

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.

Last game I played was astrodle, more or less an idle/clicker game but there is an end in which you become a god/goddess. Soooo I think I'd do fantastic!

Let's see Horizon Chase Turbo, I would be fine because I would not be racing since they don't have electric cars in the game

Risk of Rain 2, playing as Artificer. If I survive long enough to get a few key fire damage items, I’m set.

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.

You mean I can okay modded Cities Skylines and be mayor at more than 29 fps? Sign me up!
