Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

(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 πŸ˜…

BALLOONS! Get'm!

Witcher 3, Velen. I'm immediately killed by a bandit or a Drowner.

Angry russian voices then buckshot to my face.

Uhhhh, covered in sticky white latex? Yessir.

Get eaten by giant sea abomination if I don't drown trying to collect metals

[–] quinkin@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I would tame a gecko and ride it into battle. Or get ganked by a bunch of wasps, could go either way.

If I become my save file, I'm gonna hop into my Star Eagle, fly to New Atlantis, and use my million creds to furnish my Class One citizen penthouse, and fucking retire.

Maybe go visit Neon once a month to trip out on Aurora and catch BorealUS's next show.

Also I'm female now. I may ride this for a bit before going to Enhance and switching back to Male and getting the full Chad look. Might do this sooner to hide from Starborn assassins lol

I like to think that I'd join a pirate crew and go on adventures, but more likely I'd be a hobo on some street on a Caribbean island. Could be worse.

[–] CharlesReed@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'd probably either get killed by a nosalis or forget to change my mask filter. Greetings from Metro: Last Light!

I think I'll just chill in the space rig and drink ale.

Since it has been confirmed that all the characters in Smash are toys, and the human playing with them are the hands, does that make me a hand?

[–] hogart@feddit.nu 4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

The first thing I do is gather wood. Make a crafting table, a wooden axe and a wooden pickaxe. Where am I?

[–] xeekei@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

FaerΓ»n. I'd probably fail to see a trap and die.

But in my defence, those are invisible until I roll a high enough number on a dice.

I am struck by an overwhelming urge to make paperclips.

[–] mycatiskai@lemmy.one 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I would be the lone human in Deep Rock Galactic. Hopefully I would be transported into the Rig and drink some beers because if I ended up on Hoxxes I'm pretty sure I would be glyphid food.

I own a wine empire and a giant gold clock. Pretty cool.

I guess I'd go to the bus tunnel and check if any of my wine is ready yet.

A creeper blows up behind me while I'm punching a tree.

[–] wolo@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 years ago

the last game I played was Duskers, so I'm probably either immediately dying in the vacuum of space or trapped in a derelict space station without any power.

[–] tok3n@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

"Bomb has been planted.." Shit.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I find myself on a large, nice, and green felt. As I stand up, I see a stack of cards in the distance. Next to it are seven spreads of cards, each with the top card face up...

[–] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 years ago

Prince of Persia Warrior Within.

Hmm. If I'm on the island of time I'm royally screwed but living in some random town is okay I guess. Could be worse.

[–] decivex@pawb.social 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

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

[–] leaky_shower_thought@feddit.nl 3 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I feel I need to turn a crank. It feels tedious at first, but it gives me some power to make scrap metal.

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

That was a fun game, in the way of making many different materials!

OP what game are you describing? I played Middle Earth Shadow of War, so I'd be perched up on a building watching two uruks throttle each other

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.

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

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.

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

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.

[–] Nelots@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Sylvartas@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] Nelots@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Sylvartas@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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
