You have time to enter the contest until September 30th, 3 PM UTC.
Job Junctioning, like FF Tactics. Once I gain enough xp with a certain skill I'd be a master. I wouldn't need to constantly train to keep being a master. That way I wouldn't forget things about my job. As a programmer, it's hard to keep up to date and remember all the code shortcuts and algorithms you need for your job. Swap your job to "Athlete" when working out and master the skill physically fit, so you no longer need to keep working out to stay in shape.
I would like the ability to cast heal. I'd like to be able to help people around me and keep people out of pain and regenerate mana and do it all again.
Luck. Topped up. A passive skill, always useful. With luck, you'll manage everything and anything. In case you were wondering which game has it, it's the legendary Nethack.
Time rewind, like in Life is Strange.
Maybe I could find time to play all video games I'd like with 10 lives.
Restarting a conversation so I can choose a better dialog option.
Quick save/load.
It will spice things up, specially if nearby people receive a notification.
I'd love to be able to just duck around a corner or crouch behind a box and be basically invisible. I don't really like being the center of attention, and there have been a ton of times that rpg-style stealth would've been a livesaver.
I want to channel my inner Sheogorath and be able to summon Golden Saints and Dark Seducers on demand.

For science.

I've got one from the elder scrolls series

Enchanting (specifically clothes) - imagine this: you're taking a test that you didn't prepare for, you whip out your "Grand Ring of Intelligence" that fortifies your intelligence by 10 points and you pass the test. What is the teacher going to do? stop you? you just put on a ring, that's not illegal!
Or you're running in race and you want to give yourself an advantage, so you put your "Boots of the Olympian" (which fortifies acrobatics, athletics, agility, and speed by 8 points) and you win the race. No judge, I didn't use steroids! it's just my "lucky shoes".
Speaking of Luck, imagine you're going to a casino and you want to guarantee you're going home with a profit. so you put your homemade "tuxedo of luck" that fortifies your luck by 20 points and you win almost every round. I knew grandma didn't die in vain, shame I had to use my only black soul gem...
Wanna have D&D level-up system:
do something > get XP > get level up > invest in skills
instead of TES level-up system:
do something > > get this practicular skill rise > get level up

In D&D system would got XP by fixing my car and rise guitar skill on level-up )
unfortunately, it never happens, as IRL it's TES system
the same feature to pause my life and consider my terrible life choices

or

respec ability to reallocate all the time spent training to be a doctor and put it something useful like managing an e-sports team

The ability to respawn, it would be awesome
Well, even though the temptation for spectacular dps, mind control, commanding elements or altering the fabric of reality itself is great - at the end of the day I woul like to have restorative spellcasting, preferably of druid or shaman style as I am not into the blindish faith of priests, clerics and paladins.

So... I think druid would be best - able to heal both living creatures and plants, possibly with enough experience the nature itself.
Not flashy, but a "Cure Disease" spell seems super useful right now.

Runner-up ... any sort of quick healing. The older I get, the longer that nonsense seems to take.
From a RPG, I would like to up my skill of charisma because in real life I am not as cool as my created player. I want to be able to manipulate people, including GOG into giving me free stuff. Thanks!
