I open an Inn and get to play Gwent against Gerelt of Rivia!
I'd either be an immortal capsuleer in charge of a space ship. Or I'd be some peasant on a planet that are so unimportant that they don't even get mentioned in the lore.
Either I'm Link in the Wind Maker, or just one of another NPC. And I'd be okay with being NPC in Zelda: Wind Maker.
Armored Core 6, yeah it's probably not going to end well for me.
Considering I'm guaranteed to eventually get viciously eaten by a horde of zombies with no hope of survival, I think I'll just end it myself.
Project zomboid ?
Now that I think about it, my answer easily could have been any number of zombie games I play, but in this case it was indeed Project Zomboid.
Could have been DayZ too but imo, only zomboid truly delivers on that sentiment of struggling to survive in a zombie apocalypse.
DayZ kinda does too but on most servers it feels like it's mostly about surviving societal collapse in a region where guns and ammo are way more abundant than other resources and survivors have very few reasons to trust each other
Yeah, something about PZ just really strikes that hopeless feeling that other zombie games I've played haven't been able to do.
That really depends.
Crash land near/in the main colony? Eh. I'd be thrown into prison to be beaten or put into Boris' chair until I was compliant, but after, there's a chance at a decent life with only some risk of death. At worst, they might decide I'm worth tossing in a Warcasket and joining the Dead watching the walls.
Outside of them? Ehh. Might be able to throw in with a tribe and keep my head down until we're all slaughtered in a raid. Some of the Empires seem somewhat friendly, could try to offer services cleaning and hauling for a bed in a servant barracks. Completely fucked if I'm caught out by Raiders, Pirates, Insectoids, or Mechanoids.
I have a bad time as I can't speak Japanese and am pretty sure subtitles don't come with me.
Mechwarrior 5? Depending on where I end up, I could be fine or screwed...
I end up as the final boss of some Pikmin game and get pimp-slapped by 1 inch tall astronauts.
A Pikmin infestation, if they were real, would unironically be worse than bedbugs or cockroaches and I will fucking die on that hill.
Got a nice job with autonomy, quite a bit of credits and a sweet spaceship. If only we could have cats in Starfield
I get to be a Destiny NPC. Honestly, not the worst fate.
I abandon my plans of defeating Ruby Weapon and just get in the Highwind and go to the Golden Saucer.
I feel I need to turn a crank. It feels tedious at first, but it gives me some power to make scrap metal.
That was a fun game, in the way of making many different materials!
I'm playing Fea Farm so, farm, fish and hang out with my friends all day. Plus I have cute little fairy wings in that game. I'm set for life.
BroForce. I'd flex all over those fools from Terroristan
Making a deal with a Daedric Prince.
Unciv.
Just living my daily life until other civilization besieges and bombard my city.
Shit.
I'd be kicking some mf'ing shell, that's for sure!
I find myself incredibly frustrated with the reliability of the Konnersport F1 car.
45 minutes of salty hate, but at least Neeko is hot.
likely I die crashing my ship into the sun trying to figure out where the fuck this lost civilization went. (outer wilds)
