I did play a NSFW game, and I would say I would be pretty awesomely fucked.
post

Edit: i just realised you wake up in the body, not the world. Too bad, i put to much effort in it now.
How am i going to play Minecraft without fingers?
Monster Hunter World.
First thing I'd do is head directly to the canteen and get something served by those cat chefs, because that food looks insanely delicious.
Timberborn. Guess I'm a beaver now
Everybody is going to be really confused by the fact that Tony Hawk can’t skateboard for shit anymore.
The name's V.
So uh, totally awesome and also, completely fucked.
I can now finally dash in eight directions, they told me this would happen if I transitioned
Subnautica 2. Fuck.
Factorio....... I am immortal. I can build nukes with my hands and my raw might can construct nuclear reactors.
This raises questions, we wake up in the engineers body but do we have his mind? Are we just going to be obliterated by biters? Maybe we can even progress to the point where we are generating the pollution needed to cause any issues if we keep our distance?
Inb4 you spawn on a bad seed and you’re trapped on an island with no way off (they may have recently fixed that for the few seeds it affected)
I just started a new modded game beginning with Gleba (deathworld) and I’m having a blast figuring everything out from near scratch
Would highly recommend
Minecraft. A simple life, if a dangerous one. I'd see it as an upgrade tbh.
Helldivers. My lifespan is measured in minutes
Commando, Risk of Rain 2. Canonically, I'm trapped in a simulacrum of Petrichor, a planet inhabited by creatures who regard me as an invader. Even though I can "escape" and make my way back to Earth, every time I die (no matter where or how), I awaken back in my escape pod, crash-landing on Petrichor.
I can pretty consistently get the ending where Commando escapes, so I guess my strat is to escape to Earth and enjoy the simulacrum for as long as I can before dying again. Canonically, this happens at least once, so there's no reason it couldn't be done repeatedly. Perhaps not the most fulfilling existence, but the best that can be achieved under the circumstances, I think.
The alternative is to obliterate myself in a portal or be killed by the denizens of Petrichor and start over again anyway. May as well have a few years of "peace" and "happiness" between spawns.
Elite Dangerous. I should be fine as long as I stick to trading common materials. I’m screwed if I get caught by a pirate though.
Noita. I'm either dead almost instantly, or might be lucky and end up as powerful as a god. I usually die within the first 5 minutes, so my hopes are low. I am also more than likely to see my demise by blowing myself up.
Noita too!! and personally I would be dead instantly, 100%
I've never gotten more than a few steps into hiisi base.
I've done nearly everything you can do in the game including the secret stuff.... still probably going to die right away, lol
I'd be V in Cyberpunk. I'm fucked.
Honestly I think it depends how locked into the story you are? Like if you're waking up during one of the prologues, esp nomad/streetkid, I'd imagine you can just walk away from the story and live a "normal" life. But is Keanu already in your head trying to take over? Or do you just wake up at Ch1 with Jackie trying to get you killed and a bit of a chance?
Satisfactory....
that bitch AI aint going anywhere! I'll keep that last part until she agrees to take me with her and those alien AI's
DON'T LEAVE ME WITH THESE FUCKING SPIDERS
Satisfactory for me as well, only in my playthrough I have arachnids turned off.
I started a new game recently and didn't realize that the default settings now put the creatures in passive mode, if you select the easier starting point, until you attack them. AHAHA those fucking spiders, love hating them.
I do like this game. I have already finished once and started a couple different times. This new playthrough, I will create my nuclear power plant in the ocean space. Last time I put it in one of the deep holes (didn't have to deal with radiation when I got near it) and that worked out well but made it a pain when I had to go into the deepest spots to adjust things
So do you just wake up as an engineer? Or do you get the badass build shit with a click gun?
I'd assume I woke up in the drop pod about to enter the atmosphere... And then I am on my own 🤔
Disco Elysium. Fucked... far and near, far and wide, from end to end, from start to finish, from the word go... fucked. Fully fucked.
No. This is somewhere to be. This is all you have, but it's still something. Streets and sodium lights. The sky, the world. You're still alive.
Helldivers 2. I'm in trouble. But at least it won't last long.
Project Zomboid..... I'll just drink the bleach instead of going through that.
Red Dead Redemption 2. God damn it.
it's day 54. I'm going insane. These weird looking anthropomorphic animals. They constantly talk gibberish, yet they can write letters in proper English. A raccoon gave me a tent to sleep in yet there is no toilet, no shower, not even a kitchen, but now I owe him 100k in bells whatever that is. There are no other people here. I tried to leave by train but i keep ending up at a different village that is almost exactly the same as mine, same creepy animals, same houses. There is always one human in each village, but I don't think they have a soul. They don't even talk, they are just dead behind their creepy smiles. Will I end up like them? This owl wants me to find bugs and fossils I think, it's the only thing that is keeping me distracted while I plot my escape.
Forza Horizon 6. I’m…absurdly wealthy and have multiple homes and like 260 cars, several of which are worth millions of dollars. Oh and I’m a KICKASS driver who can somehow rewind time when he fucks up.
AND I’M IN JAPAN.
Life is good.
Edit: BUT…my beard is gone, because apparently facial hair doesn’t exist in the world of Forza Horizon. 😢
Not gonna be a great day

I mean he didn't have to go all blood in the helmety
He just wanted to
Does Chess count?
I'm a Queen now
X-Com: Terror from the Deep. Life expectancy of a Russian soldier in Ukraine.
I thought the same, but then the main character in X-Com games is the ‘commander’. I'm still chugging along and dunno if the commander has any unpleasant fate themself, no spoilers please.
Don't worry; I don't know any spoilers. I'm playing the 1995 DOS game from Microprose, and I didn't come across a commander yet. All characters are soldiers, and 80% of them are cannon fodder that locates the aliens, which then I snipe with my few trained survivors from the distance.
I mean the player giving orders in the HQ and on the field. In the 2012 quasi-remake they's addressed by staff and soldiers as ‘commander’, if I'm not forgetting anything. (The 2012 version is available on PS Vita, which happens to be convenient for me.)
Gotta say, your tactical approach sounds bloodier than mine. I just have them run from cover to cover nearly always, keep the squad vaguely close but separate, and then shower the targets with bullets. But Wikipedia says that the remake places more emphasis on the cover, and I don't quite remember how it was in the original games.
Eve online.. I'm an effectively immortal capsuleer, so I got that going for me
spreadsheet hell!
The last game I played was "Timberborn", and that one is a city builder, so the three possibilities would be: A) I become some kind of floating entity giving orders to beavers. B) I become one of the aforementioned beavers. C) it defaults to the game I played before that, which would be "Look Outside". In which case I'm probably fucked.
I played Stray. Meow
Cyberpunk 2077. V is sooooo fucked holy shit.
You get to hang out with Keanu tho...
That's pretty cool I guess but he did try to kill V and is still taking over their brain lol
Also I'd get to be a woman (female V is superior) and that was genuinely euphoric to me so my egg may be cracking
Sad about the death part, but hey, tits. Pretty cool. I can get down with that.
I've been playing Gran Turismo 3 so I guess I'm invisible and drive a Miata very poorly?
Disco Elysium: I'm hungover, I threaten to kill myself for information, I don't remember anything from last night. I'm doing fine.
Aloy is a badass and anyone talking shit about the peach fuzz on my face can eat an arrow
Oh crap, I’m now a Void Elf mage in world of Warcraft. Actually I’m probably pretty good, every time I die in get resurrected and I’ve got a great ass, so cool. I’m also now a woman, so I don’t know if that’s gonna be like a reverse gender disphoria thing or not.
I mean, if you don't id as a woman then there's no reverse about it, that's just going to be gender dysphoria lol
