    You end up stranded on a foreign planet. You need to build a rocket so you can go home, but unfortunately you have to build a whole manufacturing facility to do that. As if this wasn’t hard enough, the inhabitants of the planet are environmentalist assholes and will do anything in their power to stop you.

          Elden Ring was the correct answer, but I don’t disagree. I just played BOTW and am now playing TOTK. Up until you get a few heart container upgrades it might as well be Legend of Zelda: Darkness of the Souls.

          Once you get to the second row of hearts, it’s a much easier game though.

    You’re an alien frog archaeologist that launches themself into space in a rocket jerry-rigged out of wood and ancient alien goat-person tech. After dying repeatedly in several excruciating and brutal ways you learn to embrace death.

    Fall really far a lot. Stick sticks to big sticks. Throw fruit to avoid confrontation. Frequent fashion changes. Still can’t pet dogs.

      Seriously!!! I don’t want to just leave random meat by dogs, I want to pet them!

      (also, it’s a bit creepy you can feed the dogs gourmet meat from wolves … it’s sort of cannibalism)

    You’re a disenfranchised spacefaring race perpetually performing an, ultimately, menial task in an extremely hostile and dangerous environment. You only exist to create wealth for the company, at the expense of your health and wellbeing. Personal relationships are fleeting as you only interact with strangers you are randomly teamed up with to complete a job at which the company has neither adequately trained or equipped you to do well. Climbing the social ladder in your community is a function of finding ways to more efficiently extract resources from a ripe planet unable to sufficiently defend itself from your advanced technology.

    I don’t think I followed your prompt, but I got carried a way.

    Incompetent engineer arrives to work late, botches an experiment, and ends up ripping a hole in the universe to a world full of “creatures”. He then mercilessly murders the scared creatures while sabotaging efforts by security forces, and an elderly man in a suit, to resolve the situation.
