Microsoft predicts that within the next five years, traditional input devices like the keyboard and mouse may become obsolete, replaced by artificial intelligence and voice-activated controls. David Weston, Microsoft's Corporate Vice President, stated that future generations may find using a mouse and keyboard as foreign as DOS is to today's youth. He envisions users interacting with computers through natural dialogue, suggesting that future Windows iterations will understand complex verbal commands. However, skepticism remains about the widespread adoption of voice commands, especially for tasks requiring precision, such as gaming and social media engagement.

Players in Pacific Drive develop a bond with their vehicles, akin to tumultuous relationships, as they repair and enhance their cars during journeys in the Zone. The game has introduced a more user-friendly save system, but some players feel it's too late for them. The System Shock remake initially lacked a waypoint system, which was later added in an update, but came too late for some players. Blue Prince has made quality-of-life updates, such as allowing doors and safes to remain open after puzzles are solved. Games like Pathfinder: Kingmaker and Disco Elysium have received significant updates post-launch, but the timing of these enhancements often coincides with players moving on from the games.

In Team Fortress Classic's VIP mode, known as The Hunted, one player takes on the role of the Civilian, the 10th class, who is unarmed and must be protected by teammates from a squad of snipers. This mode emphasizes strategy and teamwork as players navigate between safe zones. Similar modes have appeared in other games, such as Counter-Strike 1.6's Assassination and Halo 3's Escort, but many have not transitioned to newer titles. Recently, the VIP concept has seen a revival in Among Us 3D's Critical Cargo event, which is active until October 2.
