[QUOTE="Retros_x, post: 9645275, member: 7033171"] Yet, somehow any number of modern games do not so. Thats not a proof for anything. If its not a technological challenge - why would not every game do so? And yes with turn based games its easier for the reasons I stated. I also never said its a prohibitive case. Just that its more difficult and thus costs more resources in development. Time and money that could spent elsewhere. Also if checkpoint system is done well - it delivers a benefit for players. Its just more convenient. I am currently replaying The Last of Us Part 1 & 2 and the checkpoint system is done so well, I never use the manual save. The checkpoints are at the perfect spots and even in the middle of encounters when for example reinforcements arrive or a big baddie went down but there are still some enemies left. You CAN save manually, but I never felt the urge to do so. Whenever I might want to save I open the menu and see down there a text: "Last checkpoint X minutess ago" and very often it says "less than 1 Minute ago". [/QUOTE]
