Sorry if this has been done before.
Imagine you're given a one-time only offer. You can be plugged into a VR machine, where you will live out the rest of your natural life. There's no coming back.
Once plugged in, you'll live your version of a perfect life, being able to do whatever you want to do. And you won't have any idea it's "not real". It will be your new reality. There will be no suffering (unless you want there to be).
Would you do it? For simplicity, please ignore other factors such as abandoning loved ones. They can all come with you, or whatever. It's purely a question of total happiness versus "reality".
