They are the zenith of bad design. So all games should have the equivalent of save states then? In particular games being able to save just whenever kills any challenge to the game. That's mistaking tedium for difficulty. No it isn't. If I can literally save every two seconds I can just re load every time I get hit so I got full health when I get to the boss. Then I can in turn save after every hit I land on the boss so if I do lose I can load up my save and not have to fight the whole fight again. It kills the challenge of certain games. Some games you'll never hear me claim I beat them even though I did because I know I abused save states to accomplish it. This is silly. When in battles, saving is usually turned off.

I think he was just saying that they can be abused. And saving whenever you want could be abused the same way possibly... Yeah this. Not all games are made to be a casual experience. Some devs want their game to be challenging and added things that could bypass the difficulty would ruin their intentions. Sure you could not do it. Just like if you feel legend of Zelda is too hard do a 3 hearts only run, but if the devs want it to be hard it should be hard. --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!"
