      Congratulations, you’re born as a mighty Uruk-Hai warrior! In the distance you hear trees yelling

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

    My favorite fictional universe is Star Trek, but right now I’m really into The Expanse and that’s probably more interesting.

      I am a trekie too. I only hope to not get reincarnated on one of the planets that got razed to the ground for backgroundstory.
      Additionally it could be devastating for the federation if one trekkie gets assimilated by borg

    I’m not certain if I’d be more fucked in Factorio, The Elder Scrolls, Terraria, or Stardew Valley. I’d be fucked either way though since I assume I’d be a rando off screen, and not the main character

      It’s pretty safe to be an NPC in thr Elder Scrolls as long as you aren’t important or interesting and you’re polite to adventurers.

        I held off the dragons till I did everything else because I got so annoyed with them killing townspeople in Skyrim.

        Morrowind taught me to take over some asshole dark elf’s house in Seyda Neen, and powelevel all my skills to 100 before I left the first town so that a random cliff racer, or kwarma forager didn’t take out me and any random NPC around me.

        Oblivion, beeline to Anvil, buy the house, and again just max out all my skills. Mostly so that the random encounters didn’t kill me. I don’t remember having issues keeping NPCs alive in that one.

        I’m entirely uncertain that any of us normal non magicka wielding randos would survive long in any of the most interesting times of mundus.

          Yeah something like the Oblivion Crisis would be tough on the commoners. But if I could just chill in Vivec City or even Whiterun for most of history it’s pretty safe.

    Yeah, not sure, Pokemon fans would be as excited, once they’re there. They could have basically their universe, if they just organize a dogfighting league and they don’t do that.

    …I hope.

      Dogfighting of sentient beings. Some of which have the capacity for human speech. All of which show clear signs of experiencing pain. Some of which can have full conversation with you and speak intelligently. Yeah, that’s who you’re sending in for your personal blood sports. Pocket Monsters indeed. Not the creatures. You, the “trainer”.

        Nah it’s okay, they’re taken care of in the stasis of the ball. What does taken care of mean? Well, they’re in stasis, so technically they don’t have any needs to meet, so they’re totally fine. What is stasis? It’s like being frozen, like cryostasis, but not like that. No, of course they’re not fully aware of every agonizing second of blackness! Wait, I mean, they’re aware, but not able to actually think or feel anything, and they can’t even talk so it’s not like they’re complaining. Some of them are complaining? Fuck idk. …are we the baddies?

        Jk that’s not supported by canon. Well, the bit at the end about self awareness anyways. [I realized after writing this last sentence immediately before this that it could kind of refer to either the Pokémon’s self awareness or the self awareness of the person exploiting the Pokémon. I will not be correcting it to clarify which I meant]
