Silver here,
I’m a bit tired so I’ll make this brief would you rather be immortal(slow healing factor, never aging, and always in top condition, can’t be killed) or invulnerable( could swim in lava or take a nuke to the face without a scratch, and never get sick, and immune to all poison )?
Just what to know. Enjoy
I would prefer invulnerability. I would get bored of immortality.

Could I order both for takeout? Tho what would happen if you’re immortal and get hit by a nuke? You can’t be killed, but still take dmg, so what happens.
Still would take immortality to invulnerability, can’t see myself getting bored in the next several hundred years, if humanity doesn’t get wiped out. Explore earth, build an empire, explore the galaxy, invent time travel, make a TARDIS. All the fun in the world.

It’d take a year for your body to regenerate if you’re an immortal hit by a nuke and it’s gonna hurt. One or the other not both.

Well, it’s fine, fainting from pain for a year should be ok when you’re immortal and over time natural adaptability would solve it.

The problem with what you asked is that option 1 basically covers most of the benefit of option 2. While option 2’s only benefits are that it’d be impossible for things like being stabbed or incinerated to happen. Option 1 wouldn’t prevent that, but being able to heal from such injuries isn’t that much of a downgrade, and you get the side benefit of living forever. Option 1’s only real con is that you’re by definition living forever, so most of your friends and family will eventually die leaving you alone and probably depressed.

It might not be a con for everyone, but it can’t be denied that seeing friends and family constantly grow older and die while you’re still there will definitely impact you. That’s how humans are. Of course there are people like that won’t mind that, but that’s not a majority.

Does being immortal mean that you can survive without air or the like? For example, if it takes time for you to regenerate after taking a significant amount of damage, would you be fine if people buried you in the mean time thinking you were dead? Also, what happens if you get torn to pieces or cremated, would you regenerate from one of the pieces over time or what?
LikeLike
Is invulnerability also cancel damage due to suffocating, drowning, and decompression? If it is, I’d take that. Always want to try how it feels to sleep in various places like the lava or the bottom of the ocean, or drifting in space… but still having to eat is a problem in disturbing my nap.
LikeLike
Yes invulnerability also counts for things like lack of air and decompression.

From starving as well? I’d pick invulnerability then. And seek the true history in between my naps. Then passed it on to the ones who picked immortality for safekeeping.

Basically your body would go into stasis until you’re in a livable environment and yes your mind will partially be active. If blown up or sliced up the largest and least damaged piece of the will start the regeneration and anyone piece you manage to find fast enough( in 3 mouths) can be reconnected.

Immortality. I can read all the novels in the world. Invulnerable would still mean I would have my same lifespan. Technically aging is a sickness, so both are very similar.
In game terms and by definition:
Immortality would mean Immune to Death State and would restore health back to 100 percent even if it were at complete zero and body is completely destroyed. From Zero cells left existent, The power will slowly recreate and put the body back together. Or Create new matter if matter is erased. It means will never have death state, no matter what. Can still get certain states put on, like attack down, agility down, stun, accuracy down. But since no Death state can be put on character, can rise up again.
Invulnerable means that Current HP will always be at max. And nothing can change the current value. But the Max value can change. If max is at 0, natural death state induced. Immune to all debuffs such as Attack Down, Slow, Poison, Paralysis, Petrification, etc. Since Death State can still be activated as it is not immortality, natural aging would be applied.

I would mix the 2:
Long live, slow aging, OP but can still die.
At least I can end it when life gets boring.
Living too long and you stop evolving, becomes stagnant and finally an empty husk.
What do you feel if whenever you play a game it feels like a spin-off of another game you played sometimes ago? Whenever you read a novel, it seems to be just a rip-off of some well known books you can’t remember? Whatever you eats doesn’t bring out a new taste anymore?
And what do you do at world end? Probably muttering “whatever”

Immortal(slow healing factor, never aging, and always in top condition, CAN be killed) Honestly, I don’t want to live until the human race goes extinct and the sun dies and swallows the earth. Even outliving all my family and friends would be tough, but I could keep tabs on my ancestors and be all fairy god parent if they ever get into real trouble. I wouldn’t mind living a century young and healthy then just falling over dead in an eye-blink.

I dunno, Invulnerability looks nice tbh. Immortality could really really suck. It could be a curse essentially, depending on how life is. I mean, I assume you still need to eat, breathe, and everything else as an immortal.
So what happens if you get on someone’s bad side and strangled, you can’t die but you can’t breathe, you can only suffocate until someone cuts you down. What happens if you get stuck in one of those weird currents around dams/waterfalls (look up drowning machines and low-head dams).
Also, with all the ways a person can die, not dying could be quite “interesting” to people you don’t want to ever have interested in you. Also, not aging is a very curious thing. Essentially, you could never stay in one place long if you were around people.
Then there’s the living long enough to watch everyone you love die thing.
I kinda think invulnerability would be way better considering all that.

Wait so if invulnerability means you don’t need air either why would you not be immune to aging as well? Surely aging is a type of damage and invulnerability should prevent all types of damage?

Ageing is an internal battle of resources and genetic coded guidelines. Your cells age, reproduce, and die. There is a limit to the amount of times a cell can reproduce.

Immortality, between the two I think the life of an immortal would be easier to stand, unlike being invulnerable its a lot easier to hide meaning you could forge relationships with those who are not immortal or invulnerable, just think about it, if you were to be hit by a car, or attacked by some mugger with a knife and you came out of it unharmed how are people going to react? Sure some would say its luck, but only once, soon you would be classed as a monster, people would fear you, wanting you dead even though you haven’t done anything wrong.
Compared to being invulnerable, if your simply immortal, healing your wounds after the fact you would be classed as lucky and suborn to start with, and if things go wrong you can always fake your own death.
Also some seem to mistake invulnerable for aging, your not, you simply can’t be hurt, doesn’t mean you can’t die of old age. Immortality on the other hand means to live forever, though by definition an immortal doesn’t heal any faster than the average person and can still die from injury, they might one day get to the point of walking skeleton, still living, but the skin and muscles have been destroyed.
Ignoring the last segment as it differs from the concept we are discussing, I would pick immortality for its user friendliness and its ability to get along with others without spending every second worrying about being discovered
