Would you press it?
press button
Get million dollars
Wtf I thought this was the button that turns you into a girl
Money can be exchanged for many hormones
No, the chance of death isn’t high enough
Can always keep pressing until you get it, or just keep pressing to increase odds, these buttons usually allow multiple pushes.
sets up auto clicker
cuz you can only die once anyway, so you will end up with a chance approaching 100% of getting the money
If it continues clicking after your death its infinite money. Not for you, but fir someone…
Meanwhile, people who play Xcom refuse to press the button.
Can I throw a grenade at the button?
I don’t even walk out my front door unless I see full cover nearby
I’m read like a book
Nobody can tell me that the Xcom probabilities aren’ riged. The amount of times I have died because someone messed up hitting something right infront of them is way to high
For the new game, on some difficulties it is rigged. But only ever in the player’s favor.
So like every regular day waking up, but this time with the million dollar chance.
If you roll a 1% chance of dying every day, you don’t make it to your first birthday
I’m just incredible lucky
Damn, what is it like to be you?
My name is Bond, James Bond.
The big question is how many times to press it. Once at least is a given. It does specify the death as gruesome, so I don’t really want the death, but I’d also like enough money to not have to worry again until a non gruesome death.
Like, if it was painless death, I’d probably say something like 20 or 30 times, but with a gruesome one…maybe 5 max, or perhaps even less. Still, one or two pushes is a given.
5 presses would be enough to pay yourself 100k a year for 50 years + interest gained with a 95% chance of success. That’s what I’d go with.
It can be both gruesome and painless. Something where you wouldn’t even know what happened, but the person unlucky enough to clean up would be scarred for life.
Like being hit by a train.
It’s also a gamble because you might get a painless one but also could get one that is insanely painful. Those odds aren’t clearly defined and quantified like the button’s odds.
At 30 pushes you still have a chance of 73,97% to live. Thats not thaat bad for 30million
Only 1% chance of winning? Fuck no.
As many times as I can before dying. The family gets the money, I’m gone. Win win.
Oh no! Family thinks it’s drugs money and gives it to the police!
Monkey paw strikes again.
Long time Xcom player here, back to the original series.
No.
First time I experienced this exact sentiment was years ago playing Dynasty Tactics.
99% chance to hit?
Realize devs forgot to include the decimal. 90.1% chance of exploding.
If you haven’t run across it, UFO:AI is an open source “re-release” of X-COM Apocalypse
I was about to comment about Fire Emblem but yes Xcom is the superior example.
Swap those numbers and you got yourself a deal!
Considering real life, it’s a pretty good deal. Real jobs have a way-higher guresome death chance to 1 million dollar ratio, and most of the time you just end up in a dead-end job.
sweet, a quantum immortality tester that prints money.
Stop, stop, the button only works once!
Your odds of dying are worse if you earn the million through work.
Either way I deal with my dysphoria :3
