If this game ever gets a sequel or expansion packs, I think the following features would really serve to make the game more immersive and addicting:
- Educational aspects - I don’t know if there are legal issues here, but I think there should be links to wikipedia that talk about the history of gaming as you encounter it in the game, and more references to historical events like the game already does a great job with. For example, the 2D Graphics V1 should show me some sample images of what that may of looked like and what games used the technology
- Expansion packs, and then DLC later on. I didn’t see any of these. Expansion packs were the predecessor of DLC.
- Adult should be another option to pick like Casual.
- Pick up and translate games from overseas: see also: Working Designs.
- The ability to design your office and the features inside it.
- Offshoring work. H1 Visas. The controversy over that.
- More content and focus dealing with obtaining licenses for things [ie, to make a Star Wars game, you need to obtain a Star Wars license].
- Split your company into multiple divisions
- More random events
- More choice/configuration for consoles. I want to make a mobile console
- More focus on the piracy issue which especially for non consoles was an issue
