You may just fulfill your full potential and apotheosis to god tier, and get your own new universe. But you could die, you will never go home to earth again, and you will never see your loved ones except your fellow players and maybe someone who you prototype your kernelsprite with.
Let's say unlike in homestuck, in this hypothetical scenario, you actually have a choice, and the earth will not be destroyed weather or not you play. Who do you chose to play with? What do you prototype? What are your lands and classpect?
YES. I AM PLAYING. I DO NOT LIKE MOST PEOPLE SO I WILL GATHER MY MOIRAIL AND A FEW OTHERS. AND PLAY. BESIDES I DO NOT CHOOSE TO PLAY. THERES THE POSSIBILITY FOR SOME OTHER SHMuCK TO GET THEIR HANDS ON SBuRB AND I DO NOT WANT TO LIVE WITH THAT PARANOIA. BuT MAINLY BECAuSE I WANT TO.
I WILL BE THE PRINCE OF DOOM. THIS HAS BEEN DECIDED. AND I DO NOT REALLY uNDERSTAND WHAT THAT ENTAILS DESPITE READING ABOuT IT MANY TIMES. I SuPPOSE THIS MEANS IM PRIMED FOR MY GOD TIER JOuRNEY.
MY LAND IS NEW YORK. SEPTEMBER 11TH. THIS HAS ALSO BEEN DETERMINED. THE LAND OF MONOLITHS AND DOOM. WHAT ELSE WOuLD IT BE.
I AM PROTOTYPING MY EDDSWORLD PLuSH AND A uSELESS ITEM, LIKE APPLE SAuCE OR A PILLOW. I HAVE THOuGHT ABOuT THIS DEEPLY AND THAT SEEMS TO BE THE BEST ROuTE FOR ME TO GO.
MY SESSION WOuLD BE ME, TEREZI, TAVROS, JAKE AND LITTLE JOHN. MAYBE DAVE, NICOLE AND DIRK. BuT AT THE MINIMuM THERE WOuLD BE 5 PLAYERS. YOu DO NOT KNOW THESE PEOPLE. OBVIOuSLY.
IF WE GO WITH EVERY POSSIBLE PERSON, THERE WILL BE A PRINCE OF DOOM, KNIGHT OF MIND, SEER OF VOID, PAGE OF HOPE, KNIGHT OF TIME, WITCH OF LIFE AND ROuGE OF SPACE.
THAT IS MY SESSION. ARE WE COOKED? TLDR; YES. I AM PLAYING.
Sincerely, rupaul superfans
FUCK NO. have you READ homestuck??? im not playing that game that shit traumatized like everyone who played it. if i did i think i'd just have all my loved ones play with me but that doesn't MATTER i am NOT PLAYING SBURB
100% i need to take every chance to survive
At this point Id do anything for a magical adventure of some kind - besides of if the universe is going to throw me a bone, Id rather not get smushed by meteors. Like choosing not to play I feel is just giving up before the trail has even begun, shits inevitable so I dont see a reason not to get up and fight with the people you care about
Heir of Space + Knight of Time + Bard of Doom = Reasonable chance of victory in my mind, just gotta hustle
hell no. i love the earth too much to leave it
Fucking NO???? but if it was a universe where homestuck wasn't real so we wouldn't know but Sburb became real uhh,, im very easy to convince to play games so me and my friends would probably end up playing it because someone was like "lol this looks fun" and then we would DIE
rails b4 pails!!
:O3
i would absolutely play the game no hestitation

Depends on the situation. Your hypothetical states that the world survives whether the game is played or not, so other than personal death/traumatic events to the players everything else is safe. While I personally would want to play for both the escapism and the adventures, I know the people I'd want to play would definitely have some concerns (but would relent eventually). I think the session would have a high likelihood of succeeding. The crew would consist of a Maid of Space, a Mage(?) of Doom(?), Heir of Time, Seer(?) of Mind, a Rougue(?) of Breath, and a Page(?) of Blood(?). So as long as everyone communicates we'd be fine, and seeing we're all late 20's to late 30's we don't have to worry about any teen drama! My only fear is my matesprite being a Doom player and likely having to suffer by watching us all die in some form. (Any ? means I'm classpecting without any confirmation just vibes.)
I'm not going to go through each of their lands (mainly because I haven't finalized them in my noggin yet) and still am working to pin down mine as well. I've been though a couple of renditions as a Maid of Space, but right now its LoHaF (Land of Hollows and Frogs). My kernel will be once prototyped before entry with my Scalemate plush I made (Professor Appletums) to give rise to Appletumsprite. Second prototype will be after entry to avoid giving enemies a buff, it'll be my beloved Sollux, an Eastern Hercules (Dynastes tityus) who is lovingly preserved in ethanol in my freezer :'[. But at least I'll get to talk to him again when I get Sollutumsprite!

I'd play the game in a heartbeat. I'd absolutely take a life of fantastic adventure if I'm able, especially if I can bring my friends along
If I wanna die, I wanna die doing something cool, and hell, I'd just be happy to fight tooth and nail on that shit, especially if there's no Lord English or doomed timelines to worry about
As for my prototypes? Easy, my Toriel plush (sure, there's a risk of the Dersites learning fire magic, but also monster souls are weaker and her pacifism might help, and if not that, I at least get a super cool motherly guide to help me out) and a nice suit (that might make Jack less likely to go full 'murder his own queen' mode)
No I am pretty sure I would fuck things up
yes and i'd fucking win
