I agree, plus these features:
* The combat mode must change to real time. Turn-based in all glory, but nostalgia isn't enough when old games like daggerfall och wizards & warriors have real time combat modes. (Sir Tech's excuse that it's impossible is thereby proven wrong)
* Guilds, like a warriorīs, priestīs or wizardīs guild with individual missions and status. (The T'Rang and Umpani missions is a bit like this, but give us more!)
* Pickpocketing without "talking" to the NPC's -> The possibility to sneak up on and pickpocket a hostile NPC.
* Sex. When have we
ever seen sex in a RPG? Still, it
is a part of real life just like bashing 100's of monsters each day
