The games and their results
Hades 2 - Result: No data loss.
Still Wakes The Deep - Result: Absolutely fuckaw.
Dread Delusion - Result: Getting very bored of entering my Windows password.
Cyberpunk 2077 - Result: Regret starting this pointless experiment.
Alien: Isolation - Result: Just glad this is over, to be honest.
“Assuming your save file isn’t very large or that you don’t get unlucky, you’re immune to anything bad happening” doesn’t quite have the same ring to it as “you’re effectively immune to anything bad happening” does
I would imagine it also creates a temporary file to replace the file, so if the pc crashes it reverts to the temp file. Would be silly to not have a safety net.
If the computer is powered off when in the middle of writing a game’s current state to disk, that write is going to be incomplete and the state lost.
Sure, your save slot may not get corrupted and you’ll probably still be able to load whatever was in it before, but no amount of temporary files is going to help you recover data that was never written to disk in the first place
Which isn’t an issue in most games since they usually have an auto save that triggers every 3 seconds. It would only be a factor in games where you can only manually save. And people know to save those VERY frequently for various reasons already.
Ah well if we’re going to just make shit up to win an argument, I’ll have you know that my uncle works for Nintendo and he said that’s not true.
Other than fromsoft games, can you name a few that don’t have an auto save or a crash backup save system?
Sure a few games like Stardew valley, but that’s also part of the game mechanics.
That do it every 3 seconds?
Omg… a minor very obvious exaggeration that doesn’t affect the conversation at all….… it’s usually around a minute, or when an action is triggered.
Better hurl insults and make extremely obvious claims that mean nothing in response! That will show the class I’m smart! I was agreeing with you originally, but you’ve gone and made an idiot of yourself here.
Can you provide a few games, or no?
Buddy you might want to take a breather, this can’t be good for your blood pressure
Edit: lol, they apparently went to my profile and downvoted pages worth of my comments because suddenly all of them have one more downvote.
