Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

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

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

(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 ๐Ÿ˜…

I open an Inn and get to play Gwent against Gerelt of Rivia!

[โ€“] brygphilomena@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I'd either be an immortal capsuleer in charge of a space ship. Or I'd be some peasant on a planet that are so unimportant that they don't even get mentioned in the lore.

I spawn next to some weird tower with a princess on top. I see another three stone towers in the distance. The princess tells me to go shoot one of the stone towers with my shotgun. When walking on the bridge, giant log with iron spikes just appears in the air and start rolling to me. It nearly kills me, but I survive. My happiness don't last long, because I see old ugly witch spawning near me. Before I can shoot her, she turns me into a pig. Scared and confused, I turn around and run back to safety. Last thing I see is the princess that I thought was my ally, shooting me with her bow. I hate Clash Royale.

Either I'm Link in the Wind Maker, or just one of another NPC. And I'd be okay with being NPC in Zelda: Wind Maker.

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.

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.

[โ€“] 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

[โ€“] Nelots@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah, something about PZ just really strikes that hopeless feeling that other zombie games I've played haven't been able to do.

[โ€“] AlexisFR@jlai.lu 3 points 2 years ago

Mechwarrior 5? Depending on where I end up, I could be fine or screwed...

[โ€“] Stern@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I have a bad time as I can't speak Japanese and am pretty sure subtitles don't come with me.

[โ€“] z500@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I abandon my plans of defeating Ruby Weapon and just get in the Highwind and go to the Golden Saucer.

[โ€“] ChewTiger@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Armored Core 6, yeah it's probably not going to end well for me.

[โ€“] zyberteq@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Got a nice job with autonomy, quite a bit of credits and a sweet spaceship. If only we could have cats in Starfield

I get to be a Destiny NPC. Honestly, not the worst fate.

[โ€“] 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.

[โ€“] Damaskox@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

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

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.

[โ€“] FollyDolly@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I'm playing Fea Farm so, farm, fish and hang out with my friends all day. Plus I have cute little fairy wings in that game. I'm set for life.

[โ€“] Squizzy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I sit and hide until Kratos solves everything

[โ€“] TheEighthDoctor@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Shit Keanu Reaves is in my head making snarky comments about my choices. Could be cool.

[โ€“] Water1053@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

BroForce. I'd flex all over those fools from Terroristan

[โ€“] ErrorCode@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Making a deal with a Daedric Prince.

[โ€“] kuadhual@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Unciv.

Just living my daily life until other civilization besieges and bombard my city.

Probably crushed by falling blocks while genki rockets plays in the background.

[โ€“] mojo@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Balder's Gate would be pretty chill until the illithids transform everyone

[โ€“] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I'd probably get beaten up when I had too much of Lae'zel and Shadowheart threatening each other and I finally popped off "Are you two going to fuck or not?"

[โ€“] rustyriffs@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I'd be kicking some mf'ing shell, that's for sure!
