and why?
Minecraft, I guess. You’re gonna run out of things to do in any game, so if you’re gonna be stuck in one, might as well be one that’s got a ton of mods.
Clearly the only correct answer is dead or alive extreme beach volleyball.
Buncha queers in here or something SMH.

This brings up some questions. Like how realistic does the game look to the person trapped inside? Are censors that the game normally has still active? What about live service games or MMOs? Do you die if they go out of business and they take down the servers?
But most importantly, how do I know I’ll actually be uploaded into that video game?
Stardew Valley. Have my own little farm and just ignore the goings on.
Sarcastic Response - one of the GTA Games. Preferably GTA4 for my own 2000s nostalgia reasons. Why? Because its the closest thing to life as we knew it before real life started surpassing the absurdity of the GTA Universe
Serious Response - I cant think of any one game I’d want to spend an eternity in right now, so I’ll cop out with an “MMO”. Probably Second Life. Yeah its full of freaks but you can create stuff and interact with people. Excuse me while I retire into my doom fortress on the original “metaverse”
Probably Disney Dreamlight Valley or Zelda:BotW.
Definitely not Dragon Age or Game of Thrones.
Choosing BotW and not TotK is wild. You wanna get lasered by guardians for eternity?
Not only that, but the sky islands are gorgeous, and you have access to tons of cool machine parts.
I would be perfectly content living through eternity in the comfort of Hateno Village
A heavily modded Skyrim, nice open world plus all the extras from the mods also it would be easy to raise levels until you were a bsast just by blocking with a shield.
So you just want to make sure your consciousness crashes every now and then?
Flower. I need a break from this country
Probably something like RuneScape, not because I particularly like playing it, but more so because that game is one of the least likely to ever be shut down. The idea of living out my afterlife all alone in an abandoned or offline game is terrifying.
AC Black Flag. Welcome to the Caribbean, love!
Stellaris.
Going to be a space emperor forever.
And you might eventually die, after you have become a fallen empire yourself, and get stomped by some next level crisis, while the AI empires are less than useless. I consider this a plus though. Eternity is a very long time, and boredom is a very strong emotion. No game could keep me entertained for eternity.
I’m imagining that “living in the game” implies something a bit more personal than the game interfaces. So I’d get to attend decadent high-society events, travel around and see the worlds under my domain, meet interesting aliens, have an affair with the fungoid president of planet AZ-12-69 (…)
I mean sure, you’re right, I would eventually get my shit wrecked by an endgame crisis and things would go very tits up for my space empire. I’m not that good at Stellaris, just sorta okay, and something tells me that not having the birds’ eye view that the game gives you would make the strategising even harder.
… But it is also worth taking into account that we can go beyond the interactions the game allows, so boredom would take quite a bit longer to set in.
Rush Titans, make a Behemoth Planetcraft or five, or just one Systemcraft. Even the Blokkats can’t handle that level of firepower. The fleet power isn’t a number anymore. Just a white skull
Infinity Nikki 😅
I am way outside if the age demographic but it’s so cute. If not that, probably Cyperpunk.
The Sims. Because I’d still be able to enjoy grilled cheese sandwiches. And if I die again, I’d just become a ghost.
Monster Girl Quest
Scribblenauts. Not my favorite series but with the ability to summon basically anything I want forever I could be essentially a god.
