Title: The horrible dread of forgeting the save button exists.
Post by: ValkyriaL on November 23, 2015, 12:32:42 PM
Because when you realise you forgot to save for the past 2 hours... and then die horribly, only to start from level one...

I might aswell play iron mode right? :-X SO, who else forgot to save their game when they probaly should have(a couple of times during your session)? ;D

Every time I play a game and forget to quicksave something bad happens. Without fail ;)

Depends when you (anyone; no one in particular) grew up.  Early on, games that allowed saving recommend that you save, and save often.  Of course, due to limitations and game, you may have few save slots.

Even if this mod only remainds that you haven't saved in a while it is truly a godsend! (I know normal save can be configured, but I can't be bothered with that.)

When I was in the 4th grade I was writing a book report. Got up to 3 pages! Then the computer (an ancient, ancient mac that could run Word 4 and Sim City!!) crashed and I lost all of it.

Since that day I obsessively save everything every 3 minutes.
