(Bear in mind you should think of what you'd actually do in this situation, not what you'd do in a minimalist game.)

"Woah, woah, woah! What the FUCK are you doing with Cado? I thought a Bay12er would be better than tossing someone else into danger as a first instinct!"

"Can we just... wait a second!? Seriously, where the heck are we!?!?!" Cado is looking around in utter confusion.

Kyle looks around before seeing a giant flashing sign that says 'free introduction books'.
"How about those?"

(Ninja'd, realize this may not be tone appropriate now but don't want to waste a good rant.)

HugoLuman glares at kj "Are you serious!? Listen to me. None of us have any idea where the hell we are, or what kind of shit we're in for. There's something clearly abnormal going on, and we might get KILLED. Let me tell you something. I was once in a school lockdown, someone called the office threatening a shootout. We were all hiding in the corner of the class, fire extingusiher at the ready, waiting for the police, or for something worse to come in. Now, here we are trying to stay completely silent, but this one asshole just would SHUT. THE FUCK. UP. So I shut him up. Now, it all turned out to be a prank, but we had no way to know at the time, and he sure as hell didn't. So, why don't you just take this seriously for a moment?"

"I'm not tossing him in yet. He's not a tank.... Who here has a tanky sounding class?"

"I'm a sniper."  Zanzetkuken says as he folds down the barrel and loads in a lead pellet, but not folding the barrel back into position.  "With it like this, I can just snap the barrel and fire.  Far better when pressed for time," the forumite explains.

Kyle looks around before seeing a giant flashing sign that says 'free introduction books'.
"How about those?"

"Oddly convenient..." Zanzetkuken says, flipping through it.  "Let me see...how to use the datapad...class selection...abilities...leveling up...and thats it."

(I want the poll to run longer before combat and respawn are decided, so I just put in the very basic.)

"Damn.  That's something else.  Closest I had to that were one lockdown for an armed robber in the area, and two for a drug bust.  Neither wound up being as severe as that, though."

Kyle shrugs.
"What about this even follows normal reality? Why should I assume this isn't some weird fever dream I'm having? Besides the fact I can't remember having a fever recently. Whatever. I got things to do like getting out of here. If I scream and something dead sounding hits the floor don't follow us."
Kyle says before going into the next room via the door.

"Because we obviously feel pain here you idiot!" Cado takes one of his arrows and pokes his finger tip, wincing.

"My friend, burden of proof. You, making the claim, are responsible for proving this world is fake, not the world proving it is real."

"Wait! That's the thing! You DON'T know what's going on here! You can't assume that any more than you can assume normal reality! Have you ever experienced an actual fever dream?"

"Woah, wait-", Zanzetkuken begins to say before he notices a shield within the doorframe.  "Oh, this room's safe..."
