What game is it and how are you doing?

BONUS QUESTION: He instead offers you $1 billion if you go to the Mortal Kombat universe, join the tournament and survive. He’ll have Raiden train you for a year, then the blood splatters. Do you accept?

BONUS BONUS QUESTION: He offers to send you to a video game world of your choosing, only you can never come back home or contact anyone here ever again, not even with in-universe abilities. Do you accept and, if so, which one?

    Same as @HelixDab, System Shock would be bad, but as a regular person living in the world I could make it for $20 million. Citadel Station? Not a chance, not for all the money in the world.

    Bonus Question: Fighting in a Mortal Kombat tournament? No. After a year of training I’m still going to die in the first round. No amount of money is enough.

    Bonus Bonus Question: This previous questions were easy. This one’s hard. I’m sure I could find a video-game world that would be pleasant to live in, potentially much better than our world, but I’d have to trade all of my family and friends for it. I’d strongly consider it if I found a world where I could be effectively immortal and have a good life as well—making it a very narrow set of options—but ultimately I’m not sure what my answer would be.

    Yeah, I think I could survive in Ratchet and Clank.

    And while on the subject: Dude, this game is seriously one of the best looking games I have ever played. It’s like playing a legit Disney/Pixar film. I want to live inside it. It would be a dream come true to live inside a really good cartoon. 😄

    I already stress out keeping up with the workload and multitasking. A year in the world of Overcooked would be just another year.

    If Chess counts, hell no. I suck at chess and they’re going to make me a pawn.

    If its “real games”, then yeah I think I could live in Hateno Village for a year and be alright.

    Outer Wilds. Not sure what to make of this, but I guess I would be fine? (I’m not through yet, so please don’t spoil anything in the comments)

    The game before that would be Plague Tale: Requiem, and nah, I won’t take my chances with that

    Eh, I’ll be fine. I’ll kick it in Seyda Neen for a bit and head to Balmora. Probably wouldn’t adventure too hard since I can’t just reload my last save, but may fall in with the Mages because I’d like to learn some Magic while I’m there.

    Edit: Oh shit wait! I forgot I dusted off the GBC on Friday! Yeah you bet I’ll take 20mil to throw balls at animals and ride a bike for a year! I’m omw to Pallet Town!
