I'd probably go with Star Trek

Gumby and his friends can walk into any book and play in that book's world, so choosing that fictional universe basically gives you access to all of the fictional universes. The only big trade-off is you and everyone else are ugly as shit.

Pleeeeaase put me in Stardew Valley

Easy, a citizen of The Culture. Post scarcity society like in Star Trek but in steroids and completely anarchic. The pinnacle of what technology and society could offer.

That seems like cheating, so option B is technologically the opposite, if I can retain my modern knowledge I would choose to go back in time to live with a society of hunter gatherers of the neolithic. Your only job is to find food in a world with still very few people to compete with and everything nature has to offer.

The lack of porn/hentai universes in the comments is refreshing.

...That being said...

Animal Crossing. Just seems like a nice relaxing life.

Star trek has transporters, holodecks, and amazing medical technology. There are other usniverses that have some of these, but not all 3 in one place. But basically, that is what I would go for.

Wind in the Willows. How I long to live a lazy life along the Thames with Water Rat and Mole.

I'd choose a Ship's Mind from the Culture Series by Ian M. Banks, specifically a GCU class vessel.

The Doctor

The TARDIS 💙

Really torn between My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and Pokemon.

Generic isekai with magic. Should be fun

I'll go first. I'm stuck between Futurama, Jonny Quest/Venture Bros and even old school Hawaii 5 - 0.

star trek next generation 100%. I can't think of anything that would be better than that.

I'm shocked nobody has brought this up yet.

I would absolutely be a town citizen in Phineas and Ferb. Ideally the guy who always has a new fun project and the side effects from the kids just drop everything in his lap.

Every benefit of a cartoon world with almost none of the cartoon downsides. Nearly Culture level tech after a few years once the boys grow up to by adults and actually start taking things "seriously" as shown in episodes where they go to the near my future.

The worst people in the world are so bad at being bad that they are consistently kept in check and even rehabilitated by trained animals.

The Elder Scrolls, because I know the duplication glitches and the restoration portion loop. I shall become a vampire Emperor, personally slaughter every fucking Thalmor, and use my magical staff to turn my enemies into sweet rolls and then fucking eat them.

Probably a wizard of some kind, as long as it's not a Rowling one. Just wanna draw runes and ponder orbs, you know?

@nicgentile@lemmy.world Either Star Trek when they are reached the level of The Culture or The Culture. A advanced enough ST, would have dimensional & time travel so you could visit other existences.

I would choose Pokemon because childhood. When I experienced my first mushroom trip, I found myself in a different realm where I had infinite connection with the love of the universe. That would be an incredible place to exist....

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Specifically, being an ordinary inhabitant of one of the best custom planets without any knowledge of the unethical origins of the planet or even that other planets exist would probably be pretty dope.

Also, all the people answering The Culture has convinced me that I'm gonna need to check that series out when I've finished the Ink & Sigil trilogy 😁

Hey you, you're finally awake...

Not sure, but I know which one I absolutely would not choose: Westeros.
