I’d like to be able to record and preserve memories, just look at Strange Days, that worked out alright yeah?
When you cant skip passed cut-screens. Or having to skip passed many screens just to get to what you need. Especially like one at the beginning of Dragon Age Inquisition, when you want to keep going back to change your character a little and having to keep skipping a while bunch of dialogue just to see what you look like in the game world.
Ocarina of Time was one of the worst offenders of scenes you can’t skip. The first time you exit the Kokiri Forest, you encounter the owl who drones on and on for ages. And then, just to rub salt in the wound, Nintendo decided the default response to be “Sorry, I didn’t get all that, please repeat.”
The rage was real.
Would you like to hear this again?

well besides the good ole Sexbot, Eye Implants that give a HUD, Zoom capability and Different vision modes (Low light, night vision, Therma etc), Tracking ability. All would have great uses in ordinary day to day life from being able to keep an eye on kids and animals not to mention the uses for law enforcement and firefighting
