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?

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. 😄

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.

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.
