I love hearing about unique takes on game mechanics. Someone recently convinced me that limited inventories are kind of abused currently and that unlimited inventory systems would give more player choices.

While I don't mind openworld games, they definitely feel off, esp. with regards to the main quest. Can't save the world, gotta get this granny laid.

One of the only games with a open world that actually REQUIRED it for the game to make sense is Paradise Killers. It's a detective open world game on an island. The open world makes a lot of sense, because a detective has to find their clues. It's not a detective game if there's a counter of "clues found" or there's a linear progression. The game never tells you that you're done finding clues. Like a real detective in a real open world, you have to decide whether you've seen enough.
