What type of game do you want to play that doesn't really exist? (reddthat.com)

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?

Yes, this is something I've been wanting for a really long time, I've been playing around with different magic system implementations especially because of playing Arx Fatalis, trying to get a dynamic magic system that feels natural, it's just really hard to get right and from experience, gesture based systems might seem fun, but they fall apart under certain circumstances and are limited to specific actions, so I've actually been considering different types of input systems and effects, for example graph based systems with multiple layers for construction and then for execution using key combos or hotkeys to combine sub graphs or just execute a single graph to perform actions or initialize causality based systems.
