Difficulty setting. I play on easy mode and DGAF what anyone thinks because my time is precious and I’m playing for fun. I decide what’s fun.

Creative/cheat mode…let me just pause, build myself a fantastic 10 story house… Open inventory and spawn a wife, 3 kids, a dog and 2 billion dollars in my pocket. Oh no, does that mean I can't get achievements because I cheated? Oh well.

Steal a car, lose the cops and it’s mine now. No consequences.

Important story moments of your life play as cutscenes which you have no control over…so you can’t mess it up and know you’re exactly where you should be. This would be peaceful.

Hints & tutorials.

Play as a different character.

Choose your appearance instantly -gender, body shape, skin/eye/hair color, size of nose/ears/eyebrows, clothes, accessories

Things you buy spawn instantly wherever you are

Change tattoos instantly, including removing

Closed captioning for all dialogue and other sounds

Increase skills simply by grinding, even for things like skateboarding, singing, playing music, acrobatics etc that require raw talent and YEARS of training/practice

This would be great, but imagine being in a cutscene and realizing you're the antagonist and that you're going to be killed by some brat with a sword.
