(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 😅

Sims 4, I really don't notice anything different.

I'd be thrust into a dog-eat-dog world of 4 warring factions each out to establish dominance and feed themselves. I'd say in a week give or take I'd end up on someone's dinner plate.

(I played 3/4s through of Tooth and Tail last night in 8 hours).

Ask me again in two weeks and I'd be in a city where you MUST take a train to get anywhere, in Cities Skylines 2. That would be a nicer fate.

I would like to think I would be some kind of PMC trying to survive in a quarantined zone after mass evacuation. The Russian government has cordoned off the area as a result of some kind of conspiracy by a secretive 'Umbrella Corp' style mega corp and has stranded the Russian and Western PMCs that were caught in the area when it closed.

But in reality I would be a Scav and almost immediately killed by some lvl70 Kappa chad.

I hunt mushrooms and apples for the next 5 days till I max out my supply in the stash and carefully avoid monster encounters because I'm scared shitless and I only get one life this time.

Last game I played was World of Tanks, so...

Society as we know it ended in 1919, after the calamitous fall of every world government. There is no order or law save the will of the Tank Clans, roaming columns of tanks from every nation on the constant prowl for ammunition, fuel and supplies to keep their rampage sustained for even a moment longer.

To be a tanker in this time is to embrace chaos and anarchy. Tank clans commit to bloody battles, fighting to the last man over scarce resources. The victors cannibalize the smouldering wrecks of the fallen for whatever scrap remains. Technological advances come at the cost of hundreds fallen, all in the name of making deadlier war machines. This the world I now inhabit, a world of steel and chaos, of armor and war. This is...

The World of Tanks.

Oof! 100% adrenaline until you finally bite the bulle- I mean, the...shells? Sabots?

[–] TerrificTadpole@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Or get rammed by a Maus. Good to keep some variety in your life.

I have a bad time as I can't speak Japanese and am pretty sure subtitles don't come with me.

Drown in rain. I'm too big for the shelters.

[–] kogs@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I open an Inn and get to play Gwent against Gerelt of Rivia!

[–] z500@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I abandon my plans of defeating Ruby Weapon and just get in the Highwind and go to the Golden Saucer.

[–] ArmokGoB@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 years ago

I get to be a Destiny NPC. Honestly, not the worst fate.

[–] stepanzak@iusearchlinux.fyi 3 points 2 years ago

I spawn next to some weird tower with a princess on top. I see another three stone towers in the distance. The princess tells me to go shoot one of the stone towers with my shotgun. When walking on the bridge, giant log with iron spikes just appears in the air and start rolling to me. It nearly kills me, but I survive. My happiness don't last long, because I see old ugly witch spawning near me. Before I can shoot her, she turns me into a pig. Scared and confused, I turn around and run back to safety. Last thing I see is the princess that I thought was my ally, shooting me with her bow. I hate Clash Royale.

Does tabletop count? I become an incredibly powerful Planeswalker and visit zendikar, ravnica, and Kamigawa.

Otherwise, I'll probably just settle into the grind on a freighter and drift into the starfield.

[–] FinnWolf@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I’d be screwed, because the last game I played was Dying Light 1. I have a fleeting feeling that I’m not athletic enough to climb skyscrapers and buildings.

[–] Damaskox@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah I wouldn't be neither!

I remember almost bicycling after a plane in real life before remembering it wasn't Dying Light 😂

If by “game world” you allow TRRPG’s then it’d be Golarion (Pathfinder 2e) and last nights game was “Case File #4” where a creepy leather bound book (the ‘Dark Archive’) keeps appearing and transporting us to various other places to fight undead.

#4 was an abandoned mansion overrun with undead that we needed to clean out. Fuck almighty almost every room was a combat session!

So to be teleported there I’d just run away. Even if I could find a suitable weapon I’d not survive more than one encounter. Not worth throwing away my actual life for some stupid book!

The last game I played was Yu-Gi-Oh Masterduel so I guess I'd be forced to endlessly play Yu-Gi-Oh against people in the real world...

[–] Sabata11792@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

45 minutes of salty hate, but at least Neeko is hot.

[–] Carighan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I crouch on sand, I'd assume. Next to me a woman pulls a purple sword out of her own chest, tells me to get going then disappears. On my other side a sniper with bandaged eyes talks about a piece of her soul before shooting someone.

[–] Sabin10@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Probably crushed by falling blocks while genki rockets plays in the background.

[–] Visitor72@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 2 years ago

Kill some marsupial rats, descend a level, kill some more rats and snakes, descend again. Now for the knolls, rats and snakes. Probably die before the black blob, maybe not.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon

[–] iloverocks@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

I would probably die on the battlefield by some random aircraft with a gradethrower on point B

[–] narwhalperson@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago

I’m immediately killed with a flamethrower or hit in the head by a magically teleported sniper bullet.
