Choose an amount of time to sleep, sleep right away the whole time, wake up immediately after and actually rested

Save points

Being able to select dialogue from a few options, instead of having to actually be skilled socially.

I despise Fast Travel in video games, to me it's a feature that appears necessary because no thoughts were given about making the environment interesting to traverse

But in real life ? I crave the time saving it offers

Re-spec. Leveling up instead of getting old.

Everyone starts with the same stats and opportunity.

Recover from any injury by eating whole cheese wheels

Save scumming.

In Rimworld you can click on a pawn and see all of its health stats, stuff like heart blockages, leg and arm injuries, immunity progress of diseases and other things like that. It would make things so much easier. I'd look at my health panel and see "Common Cold (87% immunity)"

New Game+

achievable goals and a clear path to success

I'd settle for fast travel

Pause.

Being able to buy a house by selling bugs and rocks would be cool.

No one has said a HUD yet? Being able to instantly recall information about objects in your environment, how to use them, red outline for nearby dangers, etc? Wouldn't even have to be Terminator T800 level for it to be immensely useful. Google Glass didn't get there, but maybe Apple Vision Pro can help pave the way.

Equal application of the rules

Saves, especially save states/quicksave. Some kind of way to tell you what is actually the correct answer, not just what someone thinks is, or wants to be, the correct answer. Enough predictability to give you a reasonable shot at things.

Going to the gym and getting fit in like 10 minutes like in San Andreas

Medkits. Just grab one off the wall and you're back to 100%.

To be fit and healthy no matter what you do or eat and super fast healing from injuries

To my mind pop:

• Save states (quicksave, load, stuff like that)
• New Game Plus
• Short range teleport, because why not.

3rd person view, especially when driving

Item duplication glitch, infinite gold, infinite health potions etc. Post scarcity world, here we come!

Quit

No damage on friendly fire

Respawning

Being able to play the same scenario multiple times

Save scumming.

A challenge most people fail in video games for unfair reasons will generally be considered a badly designed element of that game by fans and critics.

Meanwhile the challenge of making it ahead in modern life, which most people fail at out of no fault of their own even if they play the cards they were dealt as smartly as possible… is considered a perfectly good design element of adult life.

On a lighter note I really wish the pinging system in games like Alex legends could be combined with a simple face recognition overlay (that only pulls from your semiprivate private network of photos with friends under certain sharing conditions) that just reminded you of people’s names and maybe very succinctly their connection with you.

Instant constructions and destructions. City needs a new road? Done in a second. Wind turbines and solar panels? Plopped before you could finish blinking. Pipe network to get water in and sewage out? There, it's already flowing beneath you.

Checking stats and buffs/debuffs

Re-loading a save.

I'm short af, so double jump would be great

Quicksave

The ability to be disconnected from the internet and still function properly.

Detailed walkthroughs on YouTube

Save scumming. You could get it - whatever "it" is - out of your system, and then just reload from your last save.

Health Potions

Fast travel (assuming nobody beat me to it)

Save games.

"how bout a round of Gwent" answer to everything

The ability to walk at 40km/h speeds.

Eventually being able to defeat the most evil thing in the world.
