Good evening everybody! Before I say anything, I feel like I've made a post like this in the past, and if so I apologize..
But anyways, here I am, coming to you alive from nowhere really in particular!
There are some powers that are relatively common in video games, such as pyromancy. However, there are also powers you almost never see, and maybe some not even seen at all!
So here's my question! What are some powers/abilities you want to see more of in video games? Whether you want to see something gameplay wise (push A and fly) or something thematically (fairy powers!) what do you want to see?
My answer
[spoiler]I want fairy powers, and/or non-mechanical fusion. We don't see enough of either, imo.[/spoiler]

Edited by Stormtroupe: 3/2/2017 4:45:33 PMHow about flight? Real flight. Practically every superhero character in games can [b]glide[/b] but not many actually fly. [spoiler]i want a good superman game so goddamn bad. [/spoiler]

Electricity/Lightning
-
Warframe abilities
-
We need to see more space manipulation. I'm not just saying teleportation, i mean full on warping the battlefield as you see fit. Warping enemies into the air and assaulting them with reality itself. We don't see that much....if at all
-
Super speed and time manipulation
-
Vampire powers, that's why I'm looking forward to vampyr.
-
Necromancy/conjuration.
-
I want more unrelenting force or something like that.
-
Power over space or dark matter/energy underrated stuff
-
Imagine a game based on emotional manipulation... You get thusted into various scenarios, having you combat opponents by manipulating their feelings.
-
Second Sight was pretty good imo. Stuff like that would be cool. Maybe mechanically different. But conceptually similar if that makes sense.
-
Saving/Loading being a part of tge games world and not just a game mechanic. Something Undertale got right. [spoiler]I mostly want this because I [u][i][b]LOVE[/b][/i][/u] 4th wall breaking.[/spoiler]
-
Super speed
-
Ice! They did it well in infamous 2 ( and it's why I play Frost in warframe lol )
-
'Fairy powers' are you gay ? I'm asking because I want to know, not because I want to insult you. And the power I would like to see is me eating everything.
-
I'd like to see some more Death from Above super attacks like in Saints Row 4 and Infamous Second Son. Those moves are epic!

Tk powers like push, pull, slam, grasp, stopping incoming fire. Tk powers using items like throwing knives for example. Imagine have like 6 or more knifes floating around your character, and either flinging at your enemies or aiding you somehow. Its been kinda done before in the form of astral swords I think. Speed powers, quick dashes or abilities that can land you behind an enemy, creating fire and whirlwinds around enemies from circling them, etc. Advanced Astral powers. That opens up a lot of stuff in and of itself.

I wish there were more technopaths in movies and games. Not just because of my name either.
-
I wish there were better time based games quantum break I enjoyed just kinda wishing I could do more with it
-
Time travel. Ive only seen one game do it in combat, I cant remember the name of it. But you could slow down, freeze, and reverse time. Imagine, never falling off a cliff again! Seemingly teleporting behind your enemies! Shooting a bullet and slowly watching it travel through the air and penetrate someone skull with them screaming in slow motion!
-
first person line of sight teleportation.
-
Being able to quickly shift between forms that do different things in combat. Maybe even give the character multiple personality disorder and have each form with its own personality.
-
Edited by DirtyBlondeMedic: 2/23/2017 4:15:33 PMI want more games where it's fun to screw around with telekinesis, or stealth kills with invisibility. There is a weak af spell in Skyrim for telekinesis but that's it.
-
Flight done right. Just cause 3 had good mechanics for sort of flight, as well as Arkham, but no game has ever gotten it nailed. Look at the superman games for bad examples.

Flight

I would like to see an action rpg Egyptian game. It could have powers like sand storms, fire balls from the sky, plague, control of beasts or serpents, etc. There would be mummies, pharos, beasts, gods to fight through. Somebody make this game already!
