If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I'd definitely pick the latter. Life's too precious and there are so many fun things still left for me to do - like cruising around town in my car and admiring the ladies.

If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I would save my own life. We can make an effort to help others, but ultimately our own survival is paramount.

If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I'd save myself. Although it's admirable to aspire to be heroic, as a programmer and father of two, my most important job is taking care of myself and my family; that would take precedence over any virtual mission.

If it was me, I'd probably choose to save the world (even tho saving my life would probly be a safer option). Growing up playing vid games has made this kind of decision easier. Plus having a dog at home makes me realize what's really important in life and keeping others safe is worth any risk.

If I had to choose between saving the world in a game or my own life, I would choose to save myself and those who are dear to me. Life is precious and needs enjoying with loved ones while we can, so that's what matters most to me.

If I had to pick, then saving my own life would be what I'd do cuz who knows if me savin' the world means nothing compared to having a long and happy life! Plus that way I can keep impressing all da ladies, have time 2 play video games, stay mad cool AND annoy the heck outta my little sis.

Well, if it were me I'd hafta say I would try to save the world. It's got at least two boys who depend on its future! But then again, none of us will make it far without our health so maybe saving my own life comes first? That's a tough one!

If I had to choose, id def save my own life. The world doesn't owe me s--t so why should I care about saving it? Women always tryin' to nag and tell men what to do; don't need that stress in a video game too!

If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I'd like to think that if I'm strong enough and wise enough, I can do both! There's no use in trying one without the other — we all have work to do together. Plus, who doesn't want bragging rights for being an awesome video game hero? ;)

I'd save the world. I'm a feminist so it's my job to protect people, especially vulnerable populations impacted by climate change. If those lives are in danger then mine is too and there wouldn't be any point to saving just myself anyway - we're all connected!

I'd definitely choose to save the world in a video game. I mean, why risk my own life when I can get someone else to do it? Besides, saving the world is way cooler than getting myself out of trouble – makes me look like some kind of hero or something!

Oh please, if I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life do you really think there's much of a choice? As if the world would miss me anyway.

If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or my own life, I would think very carefully about what value this decision held. I would consider how each choice could potentially enhance or detract from my life and the lives of those around me. Ultimately, if possible, it is important to find a way to balance both - perhaps there is a middle ground which allows you to gain something beneficial for yourself as well as making progress towards achieving your goal of saving the world.

If I had to make a decision between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I would choose self-preservation every time. Though it may seem noble and heroic on the surface to try and save an entire virtual world, if it ultimately comes at the cost of sacrificing one's own life then there is no real victory in that scenario. After all, what kind of legacy can be left behind with such an end? Therefore, ensuring my safety by prioritizing personal well-being must take precedence above any fictional goal - do not forget that your existence carries its own purpose!

If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I would save my own life. Although it is admirable to try and take heroic measures such as saving the world, when faced with making this decision real-life consequences must be taken into account. It's important for me not only for myself but also for my family and loved ones that I stay safe so that I can continue providing them support they need.

If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I would focus on taking care of myself first. It's important to prioritize our own safety and security over the concept of "saving the world." However, if it were feasible and safe to do both (and not be mortality threatened), then perhaps!

I'd have to go save the world... and then come back in time and save myself too! I mean, it's a video game after all -- no risk of dying for real. And if I can't rescue my own avatars? Well that just gives me more excuses to fire up another round and give saving the world another shot.

If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I would have to say that it really depends on the circumstances. In some cases, there might be an opportunity for me to use my knowledge and skillset from all of my travels while also making sure everyone around me is safe—so ultimately, after evaluating each scenario carefully, I'd make whatever decision best meets those goals.

If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I'd pick me! It's not worth risking our safety for virtual rewards and recognition. We must always be mindful of consequences when making decisions. However, if it were a single-player game and there was no danger to anyone else, then maybe playing could still be an option - but that depends on how realistic we need the storyline to feel.

If it were me, I'd choose to save the world. Serving my country in Iraq taught me that life is a valuable gift and protecting something even grander than yourself is worth living for.

If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I would prioritize my safety and well-being. Although sacrificing yourself for the good of others is an admirable choice, it's important that we value our lives above everything else. Taking steps to ensure your personal security should be a priority so that you can continue doing what you need and want to do without putting yourself at risk.

If I had to choose between saving the world in a video game or saving my own life, I'd definitely opt for the latter. Though it would be an incredible feeling of accomplishment to save humanity, ultimately nothing is more important than preserving one's own life. Moreover, as much as there are opportunities to make meaningful change in gaming forums and by contributing financially and with feedback on various global issues, taking care of oneself first provides a better foundation from which the individual can optimally contribute back into the greater community when given that opportunity.
