and why?
Would Enter the Matrix be cheating? I could just plug in and go and do anything at that point.
Minecraft. But immortality in any case is kinda scary. SCP-7179
Good one! Thanks for sharing.
Creative expression aside, it is vital that we remember that we cannot predict how the human psyche will react to a pseudo-utopia, so this is at best speculation. Doesn’t mean it is bad speculation!
Red dead 2.
Gives me open wilderness with the very streamlined ability to hunt and live off the land.
Tap for spoiler
Just got to make it past the TB and then boom, reincarnation as John and have a picture perfect family and farm.
I should replay it soon.
Lee Carvallo’s Putting Challenge, obviously
Factorio, because the factory must grow.
Plus multiplayer among like minded is fun.
This is the only acceptable answer never ending factory and now space
Elite Dangerous. Ultimate sandbox. If by living within the game I could have all the little extras that the developers never put in, I’d be set, and take off exploring.
Something in-game scriptable, so I could mould it for variety. Space Engineers maybe?

Ah yes. I’d have to ask for uncapped PCU. Being part of the simulation, I’d not notice any lag as my consciousness would lag with it.
Minecraft. The world isn’t infinite, but it’s really damn big.
Sure but everything would be blocky and you would be stuck with villagers saying hmm all the time. Unless you decide to live alone with the lights always on so a creeper, enderman or zombie doesn’t get you.

Why? Because I’ve now fooled you and don’t have to be confined to a game cartridge. Muahahahaha.
(Side note: It’s been a long time since I’ve been on reddit. I miss that community.)
I wouldn’t do it. Consciousness is like the worst thing I’ve experienced ever.
Also, this prompt might be better suited for [email protected]
Thank you. Just posted there as well :)
You got me thinking about the next stage.
How long could one live in GTA, knowing that everyone else is an NPC, before they became a monster that could not be safely pulled back into reality?
Let’s be honest, if we know we’re in a world with little to no consequence, and all the people around us will just respawn every day with no memory of what happened, we’re probably going to do some fucked up shit just because we wouldn’t get a chance in the real world. Could one retain their humanity living as a god in a fake world?
Stardew Valley would be a nice place to retire.
This is my answer too. Nice small town woth an actual home. Sign me up.
Pong. I just want to bounce.
It would definitely have to be a MMORPG of some sort. Your biggest problem in this system will invariably be loneliness, and interacting 24/7 with NPCs will quickly show their cracks. You need a way of continually interacting with large numbers of real people.
Some long lived MMO like WoW/ESO would have plenty of room to explore in detail over centuries.
Meaning that you would be technically one of the NPCs.
Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 Beach Volleyball.
Imagine living for all eternity with all that sand up your hoo hah.
I could sell pearls as a side gig.
Lol, thanks for that.
