Hi,

Limbo's passive (going into the void)(from Warframe) to discover what the unknown hides !
Save/Restore (with multiple save slots, and save anytime/anywhere, of course). When things go wrong, just restore to your last save. Plus autosave every so often (perhaps even every 5 minutes) and autoload on game over, so immediate issues like being hit by a bus can be reverted without too much loss. Of course this only works if you are both the player and the game character at the same time, since otherwise you'd be beholden to some invisible entity to determine when to save/load.
Mine would be to have a cleric's power of healing/raising the dead, as I would single-handily end this global pandemic once and for all!

NOTE: Plus, I could wipe out diabetes so I can finally gorge myself with some donuts/chocolate cake!

As far as the contest is concerned I'm participating for the fun of it, and not for the prize as I have an insane amount of RPGs already so odds are that I would win one I already own!

Easily fast travel to already explored locations. I spend too much time walking and on trains to get the uni. :D
Teleportation (many games, like EarthBound or some Zelda games).

Instead of ordering Ahmad Tea or Island Bakery cookies online from their UK stores and paying for delivery and custom charges, I could teleport to the UK, purchase them directly in their HQ and teleport back to Poland.

Maxed-out gambling skill, so I can go to a casino and win lots of money (until they declare me persona non grata and set their thugs on me...so I suppose some combat skills would also be nice).
Quicksave.

Skill check failed.

Quickload.

Skill check passed.

High charisma.

I'm certain I was born with an absolute minimum number of points in that skill and, because of that, I'm struggling and suffering all the time.
Can I just have a maxed out 'Luck' attribute? I don't need anything fancy, I just want most everything to be nudged into going my way if it can be helped.
Double jump.

Because it's cooler way to bypassing obstacles.
I'd like to rewind time like in Katana Zero, so I could undo all the the times I make a figure, catch the wrong bus, leave home without important things and so on! Sometimes just a minute back in time would be enough to save me!
which video game skill they would like to have in real life and why?

Be able to die doing risky things and start at the beginning of the day again, why? Because i could walk without fear of nothing, i would be almighty.
Ability to gain health and bonuses by eating food. It may not be as flashy as other skills, but being able to heal broken bones just by eating a couple of apples is going to keep me alive longer.
