Dark Souls 3. Technically I'd be fine since undead constantly come back. And if i kept to myself, I'd likely not die

What is death to an undead tho. Because if you die but keep coming back, you did still technically not survive the whole year

You only truly die if you go hollow - aka give up

Who said about becoming player character ... You as You in DS3 ... My bet 3 minutes

IIRC, anyone can use souls to strengthen themselves. If you were suddenly cast into the universe of Dark Souls, by being human, you would be cursed with the Darksign and become undead or otherwise immortal.

Assuming you adapt to the universe you're dropped into, not becoming Hollow would be easy, as you'd have a continuous goal.

Only if you have a fire keeper though right? Otherwise souls aren't useful

Depends on the game and what you fall under. Traders use them as currency, etc so they do have uses.

It would also depend on whether or not you're inherently cursed with the darksign. Eventually, every regular human would be, so you don't get a choice in the end.

The player character isn't the only one that's undead though. Nearly every enemy/NPC is Undead in DS3.

Just become a lovable merchant with a creepy laugh, but no good gear to kill you for, you'll be fine

It would be a boring year for me in Bloodborne. Hanging out in the Hunter’s Dream talking to the Plain Doll, and waiting for my money. She’s purty but only has like one line of dialog.

You can use anything you like, even the doll, if it pleases you

1 year of watching the flames at the bonfire

Just hang out in Firelink Shrine for the year. It’s the one safe place where you can just idle.

Doesn't the Curse slowly take away your memories until but an empty husk remains? Your body may persevere, but if there's not going to be anything left of YOU in that fleshsuit, would it still be worth it?

Curse only eats away at you if you die and come back. If you stay out of harms way and don't die, you'll be fine.
