Save and Reload
Well I play a lot of Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind and a lot of times you are presented with several options ranging from an insult or compliment, to giving a warrior his well earned death or forcing him to continue his life of misery. If you are familiar with the game you have probably saved, tried out different options for fun, then reloaded your save to continue on the desired path.
Lately I have been thinking how cool it would be to be able to have that ability in real life. Boss a real asshole? Think how wonderful it would be to save, give said asshole a punch in the teeth, then reload your life to the moment prior to giving your nemesis the beating they rightfully deserve.
Think about it.

Yeah.

Good idea.

I'm pretty sure if I had that power, I would instantly lose all connection with sanity, and likely my ability to reload. Too many aggressive tendencies that are barely kept in check as it is, if I could follow through with them without any repercussions....well, I'd certainly never move on much further.
But in theory, yes, that would be awesome. Especially when it comes to asking someone out.

Interesting perspective.
Some of these ideas are really interesting.

i often thought of this. there have been countless occasions that i can think of where the ability to go back to a previous save point and retry life would have been useful.
i sense this would make a fucking awesome LRR vid

Sounds awesome, yeah. But the ability I would more like to have is to "switch off the world" whenever I want. With this I mean just stop time, and be alone in the world. So I have time to think and study things and such. That way I would have more time to do my studying and I would have all the time I want to work out my personal problems and thoughts.
THE DUTCH!! THE DUTCH AGAIN!!!!!

Yeah, I've thought of that too. And not just during day-to-day life, but outside of it too, so that if you die you can still access the ability. Also, being able to pause life would be really awesome.
In fact, access to the menue would be sweet. Why take all those halucenogens when you can piss about with the colour options or set the text to appear in big balloons. I'd love it.
Plus, you know, getting at the cheats menue would be fuckin' epic.

I see someone already made the 'Groundhog Day' reference.
It'd be nice on MY terms. Try Baldur's Gate: Throne of Bhaal - namely the part where 'Tim knows Magic Missile!' for an example of you being 'reloaded' by another! Though, I imagine if someone else 'save scummed', we'd never know.
And of course, we typically don't have the big bugs and glitches in Real Life that tend to occur in an Elder Scrolls game.

They might try to arrest you, but just don't turn no-clip off. Problem solved.

It's the same way I would use time travel, e.g. save, sleep an entire night, then reload the night before. You'd be well-rested and not have to spend any time actually sleeping. That's my dream.

I'm a believer of using our consequences to make us stronger so I'd never really agree with people using it.
However, it's a brilliant concept and one I abuse heavily in Oblivion. You can't arrest me for lockpicking a door that was never picked!
