What game mechanics do you enjoy or that surprised you when playing a game? I recently started playing Tunic and I love building out the "manual" for the game and getting hints on how to play.

              Whatever respects my reaction time is almost automatically a game that I will like. If I die in a game, I want to die knowing that I screwed up and it was not the fault of some clunking movement mechanic or due to some uninterruptible animations. Highlight: DOOM Eternal
Whatever makes great gun-play. I don't even know how to describe it, it's one of those "you known when you feel it" types of situations. There are extremely few games that get this right. Highlight: Destiny 2, Halo Infinite
