Respawn on death: Upon dying against your will, you will be presented with an option of respawning back to your bed or any familiar safespace, and an option to confirm your death.
-
Rapid health regeneration: Your body will quickly heal after sudden injury to full health when left undamaged for a minute.
-
Built in HUD: You will be able to view your body’s stats directly within your vision, like meters/numbers for any type of body metric, your inventory, a minimap and reminders/alerts.
-
Skill Tree: You level up on your birthdays and acquire a skill point to spend on various types of stats and powers of your choice.
-

-
Skill Check: While doing an action, you will be able to observe if you have the necessary stats required to perform that action successfully. (By courtesy of nieceandtows)
Note: Save/Load has been intentionally left out since it is essentially more OP than all of the other options listed here.
Edit: changed title from ‘superpower’ to ‘game feature’ + misspellings + 6th and 7th point
No fall damage would be nice.
Teleport to Friend (limit of 5 times a day).
quicksave/quickload plz
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.Fast travel is a great idea! If I may, can I add it to the above list of options?
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
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.
-
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.
-
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.
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.
The ability to sell literally anything to an NPC infinitely.
Also where is /r/outside on lemmy?
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
Real-time with pause
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.
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
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.
