- nottorp 3y agoYea, works like a charm when you have to leave and forget about the console. Save points were invented because of a lack of space for proper saves and because yes, coding a full state save is hard. But with today's hardware there is no excuse. And if it's an AAA they can just take 0.001% off the marketing budget and pay a team to do proper saves.
- ch_sm 3y agoI always assumed old save states were just RAM dumps – kind of like MS Word files pre ’97 or so.
- nottorp 3y agoIf they save everything they could be. But for example the PS1 had 2 mB ram and its memory card was 128 kB... If they just save your character at predefined save points, not really.
