It’s been a while since I played deathloop but I seem to remember you can only save the game certain times, I think only when you’re in the tunnels and time has passed.

Supervisor194@lemmy.world 1 day agoI had the same complaint about Deathloop. If I’m playing the single-player only version, then why do I have to restart the loop if I suddenly have to quit? And why does the game warn me that I will lose all unsaved progress? You literally can’t save!

Almost. When you make it back into the tunnels, the game considers it a finished loop and advances to the next day segment, which is considered a type of “save,” but you never save it. There is no "hit escape " “save game.” And yet, even after you make it into the tunnel and the day advances and you know you’re saved, when you hit escape and exit the game, the game is all “Are you sure you want to do this? All unsaved progress will be lost.” It’s like they had a save in, but decided against it, then never fixed the verbiage. Anyway, it’s a relatively minor annoyance.

God, I hate shit like that! When it makes you wonder if you can quit the game because it’s late for example. Does it save? When did it save last? That’s just asshole design.
I’m playing Prey at the moment, it has quick saves aside of regular manual saving. It’s so comfortable!
