hate that games don't recognize that you just saved not more than a minute ago

>Game tells you how long it's been since your last save when you quit, just to reassure or warn you.

T-that's normal behavior r-right?

is there any games that only lets you have a limited amount of saves per playthrough?

would be an interesting game mechanic making you strategically plan when to save

Resident Evil comes to mind

>not cycling your saves

Dead Space 2 & 3's Hardcore mode only allows 3 saves

>manual save system
>uninstall

>Playing through KH2FM on Critical
>Spend multiple hours fighting through rage and finally beat Xigbar
>Go to save immediately after
>Game crashes
>Rage and hate life
>Beat Xigbar again a couple tries later, save and then thank god

>game with no quicksaving
>end up losing hours of progress because I keep forgetting to save
>game with quicksaving
>I literally mash the quicksave button
There's just no winning.

In postal 2 protag will say: "even my granny does not save so often"

>bind quicksave to W
>W is also used for walking forward (which is used quite often)
>don't have to think about saving manually again

>Save
>Walk a few steps
>Forget if I saved or not
>Save again just in case

>play for an hour without saving
>forget I haven't saved and reload

Hitman, limeted saves per mission based on difficulty
