If you could gain powers beyond believable reality but at the cost of your emotions and who you are, would you choose it?

No
What kind of powers? An example please
No
I don't think so. If you don't have emotions, you won't be able to connect with others' emotions (empathy) because you won't be able to recognize them. And
Losing your identity is like feeling lost. In my own experience, the worst moment in my life are linked when I lost myself and I didn't know who I was. So
If I have to be here in this world as a human (not a robot). I need my emotions and my identity. I dont want superpowers if I'm not able to connect
I don't think it's worth it. All good though 🙂. Having the powers without a direction, home or even self-identity is really just power for nothing. Just there
Nah, I'm hot garbage but it's my hot garbage and I'm keeping it
Yes
If it cost me who I am, it wouldn't be me with those powers, but someone else. The fact that there would be a continuous line of consciousness between me and that other identity is trivial when taking into consideration that, ultimately, I already am everyone else including those that have powers beyond believable reality (we are all one). Even beside that, I don't think I'd want to sacrifice who I am. Anything I could gain from it would be pointless. Depending on exactly what it means that it would cost me who I am. As for emotions, I already don't have any.
