** [[Geneforge]] [[Older Than They Think|did this earlier]], with the twist that the "canisters" you're using as [[Heart Container|Heart Containers]] and [[Upgrade Artifact|Upgrade Artifacts]] affect you as well as the NPCs you're fighting. [[Parabolic Power Curve|Too many]], and you start picking fights and talking like a psychopath. Way too many, and you may get a [[Downer Ending]]. And heaven help you if {{spoiler|you use the Geneforge}}...
* ''[[Makai Kingdom]]''. Writing wishes in The Sacred Tome is not only what the whole story's about (Zetta using it to recover his netherworld) but is also a central part of the game as it's used to create new facilities, random dungeons, reincarnate characters and unlock bonus content.
* In the ''[[Ar Tonelicotonelico]]'' RPG series, music is both a technological power source (that actually ''shattered'' the world once!) AND the source of the game's magic spells ("songs".) Further, the process used to learn Songs (a form of ''very creepy'' virtual reality psychotherapy) is also an important story element.
* The ARMs in the ''[[Wild Arms]]'' series inevitably have something to do with the story, and the fact that one of the main characters can use them (or use particular ones, or in a particular way).
** Another example from ''[[Wild Arms 3]]'' would be the Dark Mask and the Tear Drop, amongst others. While it looks like just any other plot coupons, Virginia's unique item using ability can turn said items into usable piece of items. For example Tear Drop, containing the essence of Filgaia itself, heals any character it is used on.
