You go to bed tonight and a wizard comes to you in your dreams and tells you from this night on, you will be transported to 1 world from any piece of media you know, every single time you go to sleep.
That world will be just as real as this one, as in if you die there, you die IRL, you will still need to eat and use the bathroom. Time passes by a .5x speed in both places while you’re sleeping so for every 8 hours you sleep you will spend 16 hours in the other world. When you go to bed in either world you are transported to the other one.
Green Mars - Kim Stanley Robinson
I’d go to the world of The Culture. Fully automated luxury gay space communism, immortality, the works. The only problem is figuring out how to put my ‘real world’ self into a permanent coma so I can stay there.
Mars.
Need to figure out what the hell happened.
The Elder Scrolls. In the cities and towns it seems like a simple life if you’re just a random NPC. Give me a break from worrying about bills and work.
Do You Get To The Cloud District Very Often? Oh, What Am I Saying, Of Course You Don’t.
Planet Amazonia…
Care to expand on why?
Edit: I remembered what Planet Amazonia was like 3.5 seconds after making this comment, but now I feel weird deleting it.
Hogwarts
I considered going to the Wizarding World too, but what if I end up a Muggle? Also, I’m 34 I can’t exactly enroll in Hogwarts at this point.
I would just be the weird caretaker with the cat
The Culture. It has everything I always wanted.
Seriously. Fully-automated luxury gay space communism. I could do without most of those adjectives and still be living it large.
Absolutely. And when bored (which is likely to happen), I’d visit Moorcock’s “Dancers at the end of times” universe, for the same carefree attitude, but in a much more spicy flavour
I would become a Techno-Mage from the Hat Clan. And spread FOSS around the world.
Down with MATA!
I would take a risk and choose something crazy like The Walking Dead or Fallout. I’m trying to live out my Billy Badass dreams and if I die so be it.
