MODERATORS
Certain movements making you invincible for a moment, like sitting/standing up animations from old 3d games. I don't say this because I tripped after sitting on a bench for too long.
The sleep mechanic from Elder Scrolls. Being able to sleep when I want, for how long I want. Just need to make sure there's no enemies nearby.
It would be horrifying to go to bed next to your spouse only to have that notification pop up.

Absolutely not. I just know eventually I'd get stuck on pause and slowly lose my mind over eternity.
-
The fear of death is important to me. It helps keep me degenerate adjacent.
-
Too noticable. Once the kids in your middle school figure it out they'll use you as a test dummy and that would only get worse with time.
-
I'm online too much as it is.

Slow, steady progress as you get older but without the hassle of having to level up manually? Perfect.
Just give me saving and loading, and I don’t need anything else. I can defeat the final boss with lvl 1 sword if I get enough retries.
I considered this save & load option, but I thought it would be too OP compared to the others
This was a tough pic between Skill Tree and Built in HUD, but I'm going with Skill Tree, it seems the most useful in my opinion. It would be cool to know what's going on with your body when you feel funny though
Save/Load. Because it is the most OP and basically negates most of the suggestions given. It's effectively time travel, assuming I also retain knowledge of a previously "played game."
And if I'm not allowed that... Modding. So I can add that feature back in. :P
The ability to sell literally anything to an NPC infinitely.
Also where is /r/outside on lemmy?
Teleport to Friend (limit of 5 times a day).
HUD would be a great feature. Apart from save/load, another feature I would really love is the success perfect for various actions, like in the fallout games. If I can see what I’ll get for my different comments, I’ll know when to shut my mouth.
I'm not accustomed to the Fallout franchise and its game mechanics. Could you elaborate? I'm guessing based on the name that it is some sort of perk obtained for performing an action in a perfect manner.
Basically you can see if your response would work or if you need more skill points to make it work
Wow, I did think of this idea, but I didn't know what it was actually called by the gaming community. I could add this if you want.
I don't know the exact name either. I think it's called Skill Check. Before doing an activity, you can see if you have enough skill (speech, intelligence, strenght, dexterity, luck, etc.) for that. You can add it to the list.
quicksave/quickload plz
Are the skill tree points retroactive? If so, that one. If not, I think I would go with rapid health regen. Anything that doesn't outright kill me repaired in a minute would be pretty neat.
I was thinking skill tree too if it was retroactive, but I think I would want to see what the skills were too, to make sure they were worthwhile.
If it's just minor improvements in the skill tree then I would probably go with HUD or health regen.
As a side note, I wonder how lifting weights would interact with rapid health regen? Could I lift heavy for an hour, rest for a minute, and my muscles would be "repaired" and then I could workout again? Could be a hack to get jacked quick
The ability to un-flag PvP
You and your stuff can't be interacted with by other people if you don't want to.
I picked this under the assumption that whatever I wanted might be usable by others as well.
I would choose 2. If I could live forever (kind of) I could technically achieve other “super powers” albeit in another way/taking a longer time.
Savegames... no need to explain.
Aww dang, should have read till the end first
I'd take Skill Tree, it sounds so exciting to use points to improve automatically what I choose. Though it'd probably be impossible for me to make up my mind and I'd end up keeping all my points for later... I'd definitely never use them for fear of missing out on all the other options. Thank God this doesn't exist.
Is Creative Mode an option? I guess there would need to be some limitations, because then you'd just be playing God after a while.
Fast travel and quick save / load are my top picks I think.
Edit: I think I may have misunderstood the question, but I stand with my choices.
If picking from your list, I guess respawn on death would be neat.
Built in HUD for sure. It would be great if I could just check how I’m doing like a Sim. I need an inventory. Let me change my party members
No fall damage would be nice.
Real-time with pause
I just want the ability to gain XP/skills and keep them forever. I'm tired of having to exercise every day to stay in shape!
Or the benefit of being able to eat even when my health is at max and having no negative side effects.
Respawning would be cool under the right conditions. By that I mean, if I die at 100 I don't want to then respawn as a 100 year old in my bed from that morning just to die again.
But if I could pick a previous save point that'd be good.
If it has to be from this list... The HUD. Having a chronic disease, much more convenient than having to do yearly check-ups just to know if I'm still in remission or if I need some new intervention. Just a notification saying "Your crohn's disease condition has advanced to level 2" letting me know it's time to call the doctor.
If not from this list, then video-game style cooking-crafting. Mix the tail of a random lizard with the stomach of a weird bull to make yourself into a god for ten brief minutes.
i guess the rewind from life is strange would be way too op. if that's not an option. i'd probably go for the health regen
If I recall correctly the rewind feature in LiS seems to have consequences? If that’s the case I don’t think it would be too OP.
yeah, it's very ingeniously limited, although i kind of take an issue with the specific consequence posited in the ending. subtracting that, i think it would be somewhat OP, but not more than rapid health regen or respawn.
life is strange spoilers, DO NOT OPEN IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED THE GAME. seriously, it's an amazing experience, don't rob yourself of this one.
you opened it. don't. go back. seriously.
Kate kills Victoria.
alright.
if you're still here, i guess you have played, and you also likely know that's bullshit, lol. let's get serious.
so the game tries to tell us in ep5 that Max is responsible for the storm, and that going back and not using her powers to save Chloe is going to stop causing that. but honestly, that theory is propped up by a ridiculous amount of one-off rules:
- when Max saves William, she somehow brings the storm with herself to that timeline (the bathroom scene does not happen in this timeline for obvious reasons but the storm is still coming). however, she doesn't bring it with herself to the bay ending timeline, even though she enters that one the same way.
- whether Chloe is alive or not is posited to have an effect on the storm but the same is not true for Kate
- Max gets a vision of the storm before she "created" it by saving Chloe
- she also rewinds three times before taking the butterfly pic, which apparently don't cause a storm
- if the problem is deviation from the "original" timeline (which is weird, how does the universe remember what's original and what's not?) why does the deviation only create a storm 5 years later when saving William, but arrive in only 5 days, on the exact same day, when saving Chloe?
in the end, so many rules and explanations have to be fridged for this to work that there are only two logical explanations: that there is an intelligent universe that just has it out for Chloe, or that Max didn't create the storm. she isn't the only thing that's supernatural and weird about arcadia bay, so while she clearly can stop the storm by some miracle, it's very unlikely that she put it in place.
therefore, if we are to consider the consequences of one of us gaining the rewind,
- if the universe just has it out for Chloe, we're safe, unless we meet Chloe
- if Max didn't create the storm, we're safe, we won't create storms
that said, i doubt i'd use the photo-jump much. you can lose so much to the effects of chaos theory -- and i'm not talking supernatural storms, i'm talking very natural things in your life not happening.
Being able to eat a wheel of cheese without putting on weight!
From the choices in the OP though, probably skill check. Would help with imposter syndrome and job interviews
