Understated Ur-Drakon Earth Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I accidentally loaded yesterday months old save and continued from it and although I wondered why some things weren't what they shouls been (amount of collected rocks from FG's last area (~520 vs ~380) and herbs hadn't returned although there was 2 trips to FG between collecting) I went back to ToM after herb patch check and saved to slot which had newer situation than save I loaded, somewhat luckily I had save from end of august (due I killed Spire's mayor and rest of town moatly and checked if rep got affected) so only ~3 weeks playing lost (~1.5 levels, few k gold in hand, alot stuff at junk bag (~3 full row of Ghostly Bades, Bronze Spears and other weaps and ~15 emeralds and some other goodies what I had got from random encounters) and herbs gathered).

Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 This is why saved games have dates and times on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila RetroBoxGER Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Played 3 hours and forgot to save -.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 And somehow went nowhere with an autosave? —Alorael, who considers the adoption of autosave to be a great leap forward in computer gaming. He prefers games that make different autosaves, leaving a fine-grained record of save history, but even a single one is helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Artila RetroBoxGER Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Right, autosave is a good thing... but you can't save during a fight Sometimes I sit hours and think about, what is the best tactic to win this fight. I play it like chess in torment mode. I love the strategic part in these games. Call me Nerd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Earth Posted September 20, 2012 Author Share Posted September 20, 2012 date and time help but since save are 1-4 misclick can happen. few times I have used autosave at FG due 1 char has died (no chance to heal before death) and then needed to repeat 1-2 fights before last battle or those battles and last battle.

Curious Artila RetroBoxGER Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 And sometimes you have to go all the long way back, and you have to collect all the whole stuff again, that you have found on your way. And when you are doing this over and over again...it is so frustrating...sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt BMA Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I like the idea of having multiple autosaves. Having too many of them can be confusing, but about 3 saves or so should be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Stony Ibis Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I once mistakenly overwrote my favourite party with an experimental one (whick sucks), and the next time when I realized that, I had an impulsion to smash and eat my computer.
