Pause to screen: You can put the entire world on pause at will, but your body will also freeze along with others, with only your mind remaining active to think and resume back time.
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.
Fast travel: You can instantly teleport to your personally known safe places, no matter how far away they are, except in situations where you are busy and not allowed to leave the vicinity. (By courtesy of ChrisFhey)
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

HUD would be a great feature. Apart from save/load, another feature I would really love is the success percentage 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

Something like this

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.
