Additional save "points"

19 votes

Hello,

Please consider adding save "points" before battle and after a chapter break. Chapter transition should end with a prompt to save as for some of us, it's a nice breaking point to quit the game.

Thank you.

I second this. At the chapter break having the option to save is important with an option to exit as well as this is a perfect time to wrap up gaming without the need to sit through another 10 mins of dialogue.

Please note, actually we have made a game to save the progress automatically after the battle, at the start of the cut scenes, and at the end of the cut scenes.

Thus, for now we are not going to add extra UI to let players manually save, instead we will see if we can show the message game has been saved automatically at the end of the battle. Let us know if you have other thoughts.

We are changing the status to NOT PLANNED.

Retroactively adding upvote from Discord by katana100:

So its a little thing but at the point where it shows the next chapter screen it would be nice to get the option to save and exit at that point before it goes into the next talking bit before battle - its a good point to call it quits for a gaming session as opposed to having to wait for the next battle

As a tacked on comment to this:

Having the ability to manually save before the battle actually would be a solution for players that happen to miss a chest and have the boss die - thus succeeding the victory conditions. It then requires players to Alt.f4 the game, before the auto-save overlaps the save (Which I assume many players wouldn't do anyway)

Adding to this: What is the appropriate user flow for changing save slots (ie, taking a break from a tough Hard/Maniac chapter to play Normal/Casual for a bit) once the player is on the Preparation screen?

Would opening a different save file or starting a new game not replace the existing autosave?

Since the player is unable to return to camp once at the Preparation screen, I'm not sure how to make this work.
