The Little Things You Appreciate About Video Games

[Psychotic Ninja]

Allowing me to change the difficulty setting at any time.

 

Sometimes the mood strikes me to have a challenge, and in games like Bioshock, I can, without having to do a new game.

[Alyxx Thorne]

Explosive headshots.

Just... wish more games had them.

[BTGBullseye]

Bullet penetration.

 

I hate it when you shoot a cardboard box, and it somehow stops an armor piercing .50 high power rifle round that was fired from 3 feet away. I very much appreciate games that not only allow a bullet to penetrate, but also deflect the bullet, and reduce its damage on the other side appropriately, based on the material of what was penetrated. (this system exists in HL2, but you have to use a mod to fully enable it)

[Puhtutz]

Reloading a fully loaded rifle gets magazine+1 bullet in the chamber.

 

I was REALLY surprised to find out Arma 3 doesn't do that.
