I love hearing about unique takes on game mechanics. Someone recently convinced me that limited inventories are kind of abused currently and that unlimited inventory systems would give more player choices.
lack of class or profession decision (one character can do all sucks),
random generated weapon/gear stats
coop where process isn’t shared to every player. Requires a multiple saves system to allow single player, as well as coop play, saves.
enemy level scaling with player level,
fully breaking weapon without being able to repair them
bound items. Seriously, this needs to stop. I’d like to share my gear with guild mates or my other characters. I want to be able to sell a good item again if I don’t need it. But so far only Ragnarok Online managed to do this well, that I know of.
MMORPG with fixed marketplace, like fixed prices, build in price statistics etc. ruining a possible economy focused gameplay in favor of the lazy and dumb players, who complain… because they are not skilled enough.
non MMORPGS with NPC that don’t move or have daily activities. Gothic did this so we’ll decades ago, I thought this would be standard by now
any pay2win element
any pay2skip grind purchases
any quality of life wallet gated
Battle-pass, season-pass, fomo bullshit
What I love
weather and seasons
music instruments, music class or weapons
hidden treasures you need to dig for or find treasure maps
NPC that have activities and are not glued to their vending table
animal follower
jumpsuit/glider
destroyable environment/footsteps
weapon degradation and maintenance
professions and weapon/gear crafting
alchemy like in Kingdom Come Deliverance
NPC that tell you where to go, instead of a questmarker and path showing you where to go,
able to respec my stat points only
verticality in Level Design, like Dark Souls 1
fishing with a bit of a challenge other than just pushing a button in time
character customization, hair, skin, body size, height, voice
fashion slots, like Terraria and now also Cyberpunk2077
changing cities through actions I did in the game. NPC got killed, house destroyed/build etc.
