What's a common feature of video games we could really use in real life?
(sh.itjust.works)
A loosely moderated place to ask open-ended questions

Being able to select dialogue from a few options, instead of having to actually be skilled socially.
Of all the stuff I've seen in the comments, this is actually feasible today.
You mean by pausing before you speak?
People who take time to formulate a sentence before speaking are actually infuriating on some level. Like I've got this friend, son of a diplomat, NEVER puts his foot in his mouth. Can you imagine trying to have a fast argument with someone who considers everything they say!
I can say from experience that it is discomfiting, and maddening if you're actually passionate about the topic.
That is a virtue. Sure, it's good to speak up, but it'd be worse to speak without considering your words.
Yeah there's a time and a place for both.
I mostly meant like, if you really wanted, you could have an LLM generate responses for most day to day conversations. This feature already exists for text and email.
Ohhh I hadn't thought of it that way. Yes, that does sound somewhat plausible
I never think before I speak. For you, I would make an exception.
ROFL you sound like a fellow retail worker, or at least someone with experience toying with shit customers
I would a million times more enjoy talking to someone that thinks before their speech than someone who doesn't
Wish granted, but now people skip your dialogue and only pick the first option that shows up.
Seems I’ve been dealing with that aspect my whole life.
Statistically better than the choices I've made thus far I suppose.
Word
I cant tell if you are agreeing or if you just didnt spec any points into speech & charisma and you speech options were [Grunt / word / punch in face]
Yes
I should go.
We’ll bang, ok?
Or social indicators like in The Sims.
