What one feature from a game would you make universal for all games?

Mattie G Indahouse · September 17, 2015, 05:03:07 AM

For myself I would replace the save feature for whatever game and replace it with the one that Fallout and the Elder Scrolls uses. To me anything else is just shit and a pain depending on how it's down. With Pokemon you can save whenever you like, but you only have one save slot which is retarded. For check points you have no freedom of wherever you like to save and there are times you might have fucked yourself in one. If that's the case you may have to restart the whole level. Then there's games like Star Ocean the Last Hope which has a shitty setup. For the areas there are save points but they are stupidly spread out. For some areas you actually have to travel for around an hour just to get to the next one. If you end up dying that hour you made progressing was for nothing. What makes it even worse is that the area you have to travel are loaded with enemies.

60 FPS.

In order for that to happen Microsoft would need to make an Xbox that can support it.

You'd probably have to sacrifice 1080p for it, Halo 5 for example has a "dynamic resolution" that changes depending on how much is going on in game to keep the frame rate consistently at 60fps

Other games like the Witcher 3 do it too

speaking of which

more console games should do that instead of trying to reach 1080p

Destructible environments from BC2.

Ain't nothing wrong with sacrificing polygon count to keep a high framerate :^)

OT: I'd really love to see more games with mod support.

Good question....

I would say choose your own adventure stories, but imagine doing that in a game like Mario...doesn't make sense.

So, how about cosmetic only microtransactions like in DOTA, LOL and SMITE.
Or get rid of "dlc" and have the return of the amazing EXPANSION PACKS!
((Not Destiny's expansions, two of those suck))

BaconShelf · September 17, 2015, 11:22:43 AM

I take my 60fps back.

Custom button mapping. The fact that cosole games still don't allow custom button mapping is awful.

Excellent choice. Warframe has this option and it completely changes the game.

Field-of-view adjustment.

That'd rock. Could you imagine GTA: Online with destructible environments? It would be absolute pandemonium.

I still think my idea's better. Fixes either microtransactions or dlc

Verbatim · September 17, 2015, 01:46:28 PM

No more DLC. All content that would have been DLC in the future is now already in the game on release.

Either that, or reduce the price tag of games worldwide by 20%. If that counts.

Incan · September 17, 2015, 01:49:03 PM

I'd say button remapping but all PC and PS4 games kinda have it so.

60fps or FOV, I'd say FOV though.

You watch from the bottom of the screen as blocks fall on top of you.

i would've assumed it would be the opposite, because someone's gotta be dropping all those blocks

probably a better example anyway

Button mapping and changing the FOV (provided that it makes sense to have it).

Every game now has a Mario Kart style racing mode/minigame.
