Modding API

Sexy women or cool machines, depending on which one isn't already in the game.

Friend

instant restart. That is, if I feel I fucked up something and I can't beat a challenge, I want to restart it instantly and not take a million years to try again.

The most fun mechanic for sure, love me blue mages simple as

cat

Highly-detailed interactive companion of the opposite sex who adds nothing to the story or plot but is there entirely because they like you a lot and you like them too. I want them to be capable and to never (or at least rarely) feel that they are holding me back, yet never considering that I am being carried by them - a true peer. I want an excessive amount of possible dialogue. I want to look forward to getting home so I can turn on my video game and have a conversation with my virtual companion. I want to play the game 100 times just to experience something and everything together with my companion. I want to walk around and buy my companion gifts just to get reactions. I want to raise a long-term family with my virtual companion. I want an unhealthy level of attachment to my virtual companion that would brick my already sputtering love life.

A cat is fine, too.

Good-natured bimbo

mesugaki sidekick

... 90s game/character design philosphy

OMG is that le fucking old game with UE5 slop graphics and....... NO HEKKIN WAYAERINO!!!?!??

IS that a PARRY DODGE BUTTON, BRUH BROS THIS IS SO LE HEKKIN EPICERINO CHUNGWUNGUS I LOVE PARRY SO MUCH

compass and a static map.

If you're going to do this you have to do it correctly. Fallout 4 had that shit and it was so bad it made the game actually worse because of it

Skip button
I should be able to skip anything
Repeated long animations? Skip that shit. Walk and talk segments no one likes? Skip. Fuck, anything repetitive, just add auto-skip.

Nigger

Homie right here plays all his favorite games on youtube/twitch

Most games already have that. You can just click "Credits" on the main menu and skip the entire rest of the game, then hit esc or something to skip that, too.

Parry is a fine mechanic, it just has to fit into the game. Having a timed/interactive defense is good. Tons of fighting and action games have the same mechanic and functionally it's barely different from pressing a dodge button with proper timing.

Gay muscular werewolf with a human cock

Parry is a fine mechanic, it just has to fit into the game

Newfag parry is so incredibly boring, you ain't getting a newfag to do reactionary parries of <200ms animations. They were struggling with Sekiro despite being able to spam the parry (DSP breezed trough Sekiro) and having 500ms animations.

Parry is a failure of a modern day mechanic, it serves no purpose other than making zoomers not want to kill themselves

Semi naked child

cunnymon

Final boss that's a mesugaki you can correct, marry, then impregnate

becomes a party member in the next game/NG+

someone get this man a job at a video game company!

grappling hook

Gameplay. Most games these days don't have the core feature that all games should have.

I would say that is not "vast majority" because that completely invalidates all retro/arcade games. No you did not by any stretch of the imagination beat the game if you used save states. Just like super meat boy/celeste are designed around instant restarts, megaman/castlevania is designed around endurance runs with lives.

skill tree
fuckin' love filling out my trees with points

CUSTOM DECALS

... focus on gameplay and design instead of things that are better expressed in other media, like storytelling

gacha system

Mandatory stealth section

skip story button.

Minigames within games. Makes me so happy when I walk up to an arcade machine or a pool table and its fully playable.

golf in gta v was cool. optional to drive the cart of just warp

a hot woman with big tits (no scanface)

Mecha

A detailed bestiary of every single enemy in the game that automatically updates as you encounter new enemies.

And it has cool flavor text/lore and maybe some artwork or a viewable 3D model.

food system. This way we can finally know what they eat.

Gameplay
Literally name one single actual (new) game released in the last 15 years

Trigger warning for conservatives.

This game contains LGBTQ characters. If you are easily offended please consult with your doctor before playing.

the game about being a bear

rape

in this rpg you can be totally evil vilian and kill children!

not rape though, rape is illegal

kys

femboy love interests

whammy bar

Online coop that isn't steams remote play together

TRVKE

giant woman

built-in 2x speed toggle

ironman mode

Romancable mommy milf.

loli

Better AI. I'm not talking about the hot new generative dogshit. Oldschool AI. But better, utilizing multicore cpu and gpu shader shit.
Imagine companions with their own will, not just dolls as a start.
But I'm sure devs are hard at work to utilize all that processing power to load 32k nose pore and ass textures, and data gathering.

Fine, I'll give an actual answer.

Fully customizable controls

Cute boy love interest

m1 garand

child

i can't think of any game that wouldn't be better with this
