Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Ironman Mode

Can we get a mode like Paradox's Ironman mode?

As in, no manual saves, the game automatically saves and overwrites the previous save, so absolutely no save scumming.

No.

Waiting ten minutes for the forum to load your response only to find this...

How do you know? "Hardcore" is a very popular concept in all its iterations. If Larian doesn't make it, people will mod it.

LOL, that was so funny.

I just know, I have that special kind of super power.

Part of my wish here is for a "True to Tabletop" Mode:

-As close to core rules as possible (Like having rules lawyer DM)
-Autosaving over a single file and no reloading or manual saves (Like in tabletop, no saying "That didn't happen," or "Let me reroll that.")
-Limited Inspiration Rerolls

I would support an Ironman mode. I played XCom in Ironman and it really improved the experience.

I wouldn't play a genuine ironman mode ("If you die your save gets wiped and that's it") because it strikes me as complete masochism in a150+ hours game where at any point you could die even just for a glitch...

BUT

I would be absolutely on board for a "Single save mode" that autosaved everything on a single slot and forced you to roll with whatever happened IF it came with some sort of checkpoint system allowing you to "roll back" a bit and reload from there in case of death (i.e in case of death/party wipe you'd restart from the last long rest).

For what is worth I completed XCOM 2 + WOTC in ironman several times, but I think that's a very different type of game.
