Have you ever played a game and wondered what if you could do something that it doesn’t really allow you to do, for example being able to move around blocks in Minecraft fluidly instead of in sectors, edit the world in Hogwarts legacy with spells, be able to fly in a world like Elden Ring or Elder Scrolls with epic sky battles, have a sims game that simulates more than just sims needs, but whole economies, or a dystopian horror game set in a Minecraft style world. So I was wondering if anyone else had similar ideas for games or fantasies for possible games?

What’s your ideas for games that doesn’t really exist, or might not even really be possible to make?

    I remember that when Star Trek Online was first announced, it was VERY different than what it is now… and it actually more closely resembled what you were describing. Each character would be free to do some of their own hero stuff in the galaxy but also be on ‘hub ships’ where you were a smaller part of a much larger whole, participating in shipboard stuff. Then it changed hands or somesuch, and the new leadership said, “Nobody just wants to be some random person on a starship! Everyone wants to be the captain!”

    To which I said, “No, actually… ._. I think I would enjoy just vibing on a supercool space ship with my Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism lifestyle.” So it would be interesting to see someone try to do STO as it was originally intended.
