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?

    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.

    Need more info before I accept or not. Does time IRL freeze? Or do I miss a year of real life time?

    If I miss a year then nah because that’s logistical nightmares and a LOT of explaining. Plus all my stuff would probably be lost if I stop paying rent because I’m non existent for a year, including legal documents etc.

    If IRL time stops though, yeah I’d take it. Last played Ensemble Stars which is a game about idols. So the world they live in is more or less just normal modern day Earth.

    Anyway I need to know the situation with IRL while I’m gone, OP.

    I would not take the further deals because I’m disabled for the first one, and because I have people and things I like IRL for the second.

    I played Minecraft in peaceful mode, so, yeah, that sounds like a nice year long vacation actually.

    Hard pass on the mortal kombat, but I might take the third offer if I could be functionally immortal and the world was expansive enough.

    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!

    Cities: Skylines - no problem, it’s a great place to live! … As long as your house is near an evacuation shelter, on account of all the tornados and stuff.
