      Oh dude. I hadn’t even considered SCP. At least you might meet Alan Wake. Never played the games, but I assume he’s an interesting guy if he lives in that universe, and has survived multiple games.

        I haven’t played the games either, tbh I didn’t even know there were games.

        I’ve been reading SCP’s for probably over 15 years now though, with varying levels of obsession with it during that time. There is so much lore and interconnectedness now, seeing it grow from just a few stories was incredible.

          Check out Alan Wake, Alan Wake II, and Control, all by Remedy Entertainment. They’re not directly SCP, but they’re adjacent/parallel to it.

            I mean, that explicitly didn’t end up happening though, that reality got reset. The chilling part is the implication that that’s a very bad thing.

              Wasn’t aware of that part. Good Lord. I am beginning to suspect that SCP lore may be a magnitude of order larger than TES lore.

                We’re talking about SCP-5000 Absolute Exclusion Harness right? That’s the main famous SCP where the foundation starts trying to exterminate humanity. But yeah, it’s all told through digital archives onboard a wearable device that renders the wearer completely safe from basically reality as a whole that just appeared and tells of a chilling alternate reality where the foundation starts exterminating mankind and it is implied that the wearer ends up using the suit to survive and then “reset reality” using some other SCPs and that reset reality where that all never happened is the reality the rest of the SCP Foundation we know exists. The Harness is the only thing left as it is shielded fully from basically anything.

    Horizon Zero Dawn/Forbidden West, so I would do okay, depending on the tribe I lived with and staying away from killer robots.

    I’m good. I mean, there’s a hell portal right next to a certain town in the countryside, but even the demons of this world are more “asshole characters and weird animals” than actual-ACTUAL-demons. Plus they seem to have completely handled issues of poverty and such by taming all of nature with magic, even if they still use money and have jobs. Less ‘socialism’ and more ‘post-scarcity society, but with magic instead of tech’.

    … I’m talking about Equestria from Gen 4 My Little Pony by the way.

    … Then again ponies are like SUUUUPER racist, so if I end up there as a human, I think I’d be experimented on.

    Well, depending on where and when in the story I land in Eorzea, it can be a nice and boring existence, one where I get to see all the famous heroes of the age from all across the realm, or a painfully short one.

    My favorite universe is Star Wars. Pretty sure we’re already on track to be fighting an evil empire soon enough, just without the cool spaceships.

    I can’t wait to visit Starfleet Medical to get my back and stomach fixed, live in a post scarcity utiopia, see other worlds, and study whatever I want.

    EDIT: I think the worst thing will be contemplating the metaphysics of transporters. But maybe I’ll just never take one.

    Though living in the utopian society that is the United Federation of Planets would be nice too

      I don’t know if I’d want to live in the UFP. Post-dominion war (and during it) it gets a bit dystopian. And of the time periods depicted, there’s only a pretty narrow window where they’re not at war with at least one major power. Specifically after the khitomer accords are signed and prior to the encounter with the Borg. So, really only a 70 year period. And even then, there’s a cold war with the Romulans.

      That galaxy is largely hostile and while a lot of UFP citizens are able to live in blissful ignorance, I’m not sure I’d enjoy that.

        I’m on season 6 of DS9. I remember thinking about how fucked up it was that Sisko

        Tap for spoiler

        gases that maquis planet, but now he’s just falsified evidence to pull the romulans into the war (and Garak had a senator killed, to really sell it). The worst part is that the federation approved of the forgery.

    Pokemon seems awful

    Ever present terrorism, most towns don’t have food

    Animal attacks are more common and dangerous

      These terrorist organizations are at least nice enough to let you attempt to capture a relatively weak pikachu for over a decade. My boss gets mad if I go over my 15 minute coffee break.

      If you take them at face value and not as a gamified abstraction, sure. “Pallet Town” having three buildings is unlivable but it isn’t shown that way in non-game media.

      The organized crime is rough but that usually gets sorted out by a child at some point so just keep your head down.

    Elder Scrolls… So here’s hoping I land somewhere in Cyrodiil with a long gap in between major catastrophic events.
