A delightful but maddening tension.

200 quick saves before I finished my first play through.

Yeah I'm not even through act one and already breaking through 100

I fully embrace save scumming with this game, and to save often was the first of two pieces of advice I gave a friend who can’t play until the PS5 version comes out.

I use gamepad, but with a keyboard on my lap so I can religiously hit F5

Hitting the menu button on the controller and then triangle (or Y) will quicksave. I do it a lot too and play with controller.

Having a keyboard on my lap ever-so-slightly breaks the immersion so thanks, this will get a lot of use from me.

Why am I thanking you for making the crack more addictive?!

You are welcome and have another rock.😁

That is how I quicksave right before I know shit’s about to go sideways. So, y’know, constantly.

That sounds really low 😂

I keep doing full saves, not even quicksaves. I'm paranoid.
