4. A Pause Button
Sometimes whilst playing Dark Souls, life itself demands your attention. Maybe I've had to answer the phone, look at photos of hotels or respond to nature's call. In those instances, a pause button would have been really quite useful. But it could go much further than that. Imagine being able to pause a furious battle in the midst of the chaos to equip new items, queue spells or use healing potions. That would really take the edge off the often merciless combat! It would also be nice if, upon seeing the horrors you're about to fight, you had an option, accessible via a pause menu, where you could instantly dock their health in half. I sometimes like to feel like I have a fighting chance. Who plays games to lose, after all?
