Showing up in Midgard just in time for the Plate in Sector 7 to collapse on my head.
For selfish reasons, I'd pick Love and Deepspace so I can frolick through time and space with 5 (soon to be 6) different boyfriends, hunting wanderers with superpowers.
- is a regular joe on the dead planet of "consider phlebas" pre-extinction;
- dies of the plague that wipes out the entire life of the planet, never getting to know about the culture.
Spira would be okay as long as I avoid living anywhere Sin would attack.
Love to be governed by an undead theocracy that persists through the deliberate cycling of apocolyptic events, because they've got 3D underwater volleyball in the capital.
Unfortunately if that were the case we are still many years from discovering the Epstein drive. Still having to deal with the oligarchy and shit conditions unless you are the 1%
My favorite fiction still isn't good for most people, Hard Sci Fi.

If only he'd had a little more time to continue his research.
Off to Azeroth? Could be okay ...
I wonder if the Monster Hunter food will cure my aching back enough to let me lift a Charge Blade
I get to live in Eorzea? Sounds awesome!
Given the fact that 40k lore goes back to the present day and before that (the emperor as an immortal being exists way before the 21. Century), there's a lot of room between you basically live in the same situation as before (just with a living emperor in your timeline) and you're very much fucked (living in the 41. Millennium)
I'd imagine the jackpot would be waking up in the Dark Age of Technology.
Most soul crushing would have to be waking up as part of the Interex as they discover the Imperium.
Stardew Valley! I’m gonna marry Leah for sure
More likely you never see the valley and are stuck in the city the PC starts in, or the war Jodi's hubby is in for the first year.
Yeah, it was either Stardew Valley or Witcher 3 for me. (I wouldn't last 5 minutes in Velen).
Minecraft. Say, whats that sizzling noi
eh, just make a few torches
Star Trek, I'm going to Risa!!
Get the horga'hn!
I'd love being a holonovel author.
Discworld isn't all that bad!
It’s been around for Ians and Ians, you know.
As long as you avoid "suicide" in A-M or any similar actions, you're good. There's the occasional attempt at dismantling the universe, but that happens in all multiverses if you think about it.
I'm going to Lancre with the witches.
My ass under Combine rule...
My face when the Combine roll up:
Notice how the ... dermis is stripped off, right up until about the area the faceplate of a CP/OW stops, and connects into the rear/neck part of their headgear?
This guy is either a dead, former CP/OW, or an early attempt at making a human into a CP/OW that... didn't work out so well.
... This is basically confirmed in HL Alyx, you can find some OW with... very similarly fucked up faces.
Once the mask goes on... taking it off will almost certainly kill you.
Pick that up!
Cyberpunk 2077. Welp, with my current "savings" I am screwed. But at least I am into software development. Still gotta learn real fast
Everyone will live in that reality soon enough
How would this wish work if Kiki’s delivery service world is where I want to live, but my favorite world to read about or play in is Gotham?
You end up as a cute witch in a quaint Gothic town being hunted by Batman.
Batman's going to call Constantine and things are going to get Dark...
You have to pick one as a favorite. No splitsies.
As long as, if the need arrives, I have enough money for a witcher - I'm fine with this.
Can't wait to date an asari
enjoy some of that blussy before the reapers come to murder you
Worth it
Aliens universe? Game over man, game over!
Spend the rest of my life on a Culture orbital or GSV? FUCK YEAH
Unbridled hedonism with eventual joining of a group mind, let’s go!
Also getting rid of my T1 Diabetes and re-doing my transition, but yeah! Hedonism as well!
Rainworld enjoyers: gulp
Oh dear, I am reasonably confident I do not want to exist in the world of Kenshi.
Welcome to Papa Scorch's kitchen. Prepare for Titanfall.
Reading The Beginning After the End I'd probably be nobody special without abilities in a nation at war... Fairly screwed. Might be an engineer or scientist working on steam engines or trains.
Probably DC Comics. And it depends what my role in this universe would be. But knowing my luck I'd just be a random civilian that gets wiped out during the latest rampage by Atomic Skull or something. But at least everything gets reset every few years, so that I could live again to be super villain fodder another day.
How about we all live in Farenheit 451.
don't we already?
Yes
I'm down for the traveling hobo book club
Oh wow! Goth eldar! I’m sure nothing bad will happen.
Mass Effect ... It all depends on before or after Reaper invasion.
40K is actually a brighter universe than our real life one. The Emperor might just win and make some sort of heaven on Terra for humanity, becoming a techpriest can make you immortal, there is an actual afterlife and source of free energy.
Meanwhile, we are doomed to be captured and tortured by Rocko's Basilisk in real life, and the universe is doomed to repeat in cruel cycles.
We have been here before.
I disagree. The Imperium of Man is basically slowly inching towards its downfall with corpse starch (i.e. ground up corpses) being a common food for hive cities and the Inquisition being an ever looming threat for the populace. Not to mention that if you ever have have the misfortune of being near anything Chaos-y, you are often greeted by the Ordo Hereticus before your life is snuffed out. And considering that Belisarius Cawl frantically fell into prayer when confronted by a powerful AI core of old does show that the Adeptus Mechanicus are far from their power way back when, let alone any promise of immortality for the masses.
Psychic blanks have it even worse, as they might not even be connected to the warp, meaning they might just fade into nonexistence after their death. And overall, being a Chaos Worshipper isn't that great as well, as most citicem are not treated well, not to mention that the ruinous powers will slowly drive you insane as well.
Last but not least is that the end of the whole 40K in-universe might be overall crawling to an end, as the Tyranids might be unstoppable by organic beings (apart from possibly the Orks), so it might be that the universe-wide apocalypse is slowly inching closer, leaving only the Necrons behind after the Tyranids seek out the next galaxy to devour.
I'd rather choose the old boring life here in this universe any day over the one from 40K.
i never really "got" Rocko’s Basilisk. why would it want to kill you for not building it in the first place?
I'm just saying to make it clearer. Really what I mean is, the ruling monsters will want to claim us completelly, and violate us in every way for eternity (and not in a sexy way either).
Don't dare mention it !
