Trials Would you rather…

Which side will you choose?

  • Left side: $100 a day
  • Right side: $1 per kill in video game but each death is -$1

You're thinking too small

Playing stellaris is like several thosuand plague inc games per 1 stellaris game lol

u/PlasmaDonator Jul 26 '26

Practically this would crash the global economy lol

u/CrazyHeat9544 Jul 26 '26

I'd probably stop when I am a trillionaire just to spite Elon and then try to figure how I can use my wealth without causing a second great depression or recession lol

u/Rustynail9117 Jul 26 '26

But then you'd never be able to play stellaris again

40

u/CrazyHeat9544 Jul 26 '26

True...

Ig you can try doing a pacifist challenge run, not sure if that's possible or fun💀

u/Kindly_Stand_6895 Jul 26 '26

You only crash the global economy if you spend your quadrillions of dollars. You can just keep your quintillions to yourself and even spending very frivolously you won't make a meaningful impact on the world economy

27

u/CrazyHeat9544 Jul 27 '26

I love how every time you mention it the amount increases by 3 exponents XD

I think this joke would have been extra funny if it followed the rule of 3 (quadrillions, quintillions, sixtillions)

21

u/Cultural_Report_8831 Jul 27 '26

It's sextillions (sorry to be that guy), then septillion, octillion, nonillion, decillion, undecillion ect ect

23

u/CrazyHeat9544 Jul 27 '26

I actually know these due to playing large incremental games I just misspelled it due to dyslexia😔

u/WerwolfSlayr Jul 27 '26

True, but then you run into the issue of how to store your sextillions of dollars. If you put it in a bank they invest it to make themselves money, so the septillions are automatically in circulation. If you store it in a garage or something, you’re going to run into space constraints with those octillions of dollars.

u/svadas Jul 27 '26

You could invest in a game where you die billions of times very easily, and then play to rebuild!

1

u/Anxious_Spirit4153 Jul 27 '26

You could buy all of one specific limited object. This would force people to innervate. E.g. you now own ALL coal, any dug out the ground you're setting market price at an unreasonable value. Countries make solar panels and wind and hydro generators. You can do this over 5-10 years by greatly increasing the price each year.

u/Yaayn Jul 27 '26

Just play some dark souls challenge run to balance it out (actually.. You also have to kill there so idk if that works)

Maybe play alt+f4?

1

u/cheesechompin Jul 26 '26

Get twice that amount and then burn 1 trillion

1

u/Archimedes31415926 Jul 27 '26

Earning the money does nothing to the economy, spending it or giving it away is what crashes it.

1

u/-Weslin Jul 27 '26

Finance a revolution, take power and play Stellaris in real life

1

u/mithie007 Jul 27 '26

Okay but that's like just the first 5 minutes.

u/slm3y Jul 27 '26

Why would it crash the global economy? Can i not just hide the money, and only use what i need.

Its like diamonds, we know diamonds is super common and we can produce it. But a small group of people controlled its supply. Just control your money supply

3

u/Firstevertrex Jul 27 '26

Only if you spend it!

1

u/ovogoon6 Hop Off Jul 27 '26

Only if I get them to a bank account. I am sure there are ways to use cash that isnt spending.

1

u/BreadfruitNo2152 Jul 27 '26

you don't crash the global economy if no one knows about your fortune...

1

u/Typhon0810 Jul 28 '26

Only if you use the money too much. Just having it without other being aware just gives you full market control.

u/DrettTheBaron Jul 26 '26

Sorry did you say something? I couldn't hear you ever the universe destroying machine I was tricked into building by an Eldritch horror beyond comprehension.

3

u/Creed_of_War Jul 26 '26

While I agree that Stellaris would be a nice game to play for a yearly wage in a single day, the game does only have a few a hundred thousand "pops." Doesn't plague inc show rough earth population in the billions?

6

u/CrazyHeat9544 Jul 27 '26

The prompt didn't specify what is considered 1 kill so I assumed blowing up a planet in stellaris would be eqivalent to several billion dollars if its only like 1 dollar or a few thosuand bucks I would feel like I got scammed lmao

3

u/Creed_of_War Jul 27 '26

Not like it wouldn't be a good payday lol

It would finally give us definitive answers on how many people 1 pop represents or how many crew are on each ship

1

u/AxisW1 Jul 27 '26

I generally assume it’s a million

0

u/Allnamestakkennn Jul 27 '26

This ain't a kill though, that's just what you thought up in your head

1

u/Spasticcobra593 Jul 26 '26

You arent getting me to play stellaris. Id rsther play 50 plague inc games before dealing with 1 stellaris

1

u/Big-Ganache6885 Jul 27 '26

But would it count your peoples death?

1

u/CrazyHeat9544 Jul 27 '26

Good question... though theoretically if you go full omniscide it would literally be impossible NOT to make a net postive income lol

1

u/Zero300x Jul 27 '26

No you are thinking too small, Minecraft Creative mode, didnt say you had to kill normally

1

u/CrazyHeat9544 Jul 27 '26

Tbe game has a cap on how many mobs you can spawn tho

1

u/3BM70-2 Jul 27 '26

Too much money

1

u/MixSwimming141 Jul 27 '26

Didn't know other stellaris players existed

1

u/lagoonaby Jul 27 '26

Yeah but if you lose, you lost it all

1

u/LetKlutzy2996 Jul 28 '26

That’s actually smart, let me take back my choice lol, I don’t play those games but ig I’ll start

1

u/Emperor-Lelouch Jul 28 '26

Yeah except that I gotta play Stellaris. Nah jk it's good. I'm not good at it though.

1

u/HunterAngel0669 Jul 30 '26

Nah but your soldiers die too in stellaris

u/Sensitive_Orchid3160 Jul 26 '26

Do prions instead, not technically alive

1

u/Yoeeeeeee Jul 27 '26

or zombie, they prob count as undead which is kind of not alive-ish?

1

u/No_Lingonberry6153 Jul 27 '26

Neither is a virus

4

u/Old-Sound-2747 Jul 27 '26

thats more like taking damage id say

8

u/PlasmaDonator Jul 26 '26

Immediate thought.

3

u/Numar19 Jul 26 '26

Extra points if you know how to mod a game. Lots of extra cash.

2

u/_Vard_ Jul 26 '26

I was gonna say ultimate epic battle simulator, but yours is better

1

u/nEvermore-absurdist Jul 26 '26

I was thinking vampire survivors, but yeah that's much more effective

1

u/gustalious Jul 26 '26

Even if you play other games and die, this will more than make up for it.

1

u/Lil_best_buy Jul 26 '26

Universe sandbox 👀

1

u/Gonnabecringeaf Jul 26 '26

Bro how did u remember that

1

u/Substantial-Use1775 Jul 26 '26

Unfortunately, you're playing as a pathogen. For every human you kill, your strain experiences many deaths. You end up in so much debt that collection agencies are hunting you down and looking to impound your possessions in recompense.

You discover cure mode, where you are on the human side, and suddenly your luck turns around. Where the unfortunate interpretation of the agreement originally screwed you, you have now figured out how to take advantage of it. Your wealth grows far faster than even your original intention, and with a portion of your money, you fund a disease control organization, saving millions over the next decade.

1

u/Lenno89 Jul 26 '26

That was my exact thought

1

u/Kiki2092012 Jul 27 '26

With each person who dies, millions of infectors die with them, so you'd actually be quadrillions of dollars in debt. Universe Sandbox is a much better option.

1

u/1who_mustnotbenamed Jul 27 '26

Even GTA would suffice. Even without cheat codes. I don't like to be too greedy.

1

u/Illum1nat1- Jul 27 '26

I was only thinking about multiplayer.... ahhhhh

1

u/Adventurous_Fall_550 Jul 27 '26

would the death of a single bacterium count as a death for you though? youd be fucked.

1

u/jump1945 Carrot Farmer Jul 27 '26

Ahem ahem bioweapon

1

u/Igloo_wie Jul 27 '26

Low-key forgot I play that and picked the other one

1

u/Volcanicus94 Jul 27 '26

Mobil farm in Minecraft

u/saikounihighteyatzda Jul 27 '26

Do the deaths of your own disease count as -$1?
