I would like to be able to play a version of the game where your decisions actually matter. Additionally, I agree that in an actual D&D campaign you can create a new character and rejoin the party and I think that is a great suggestion and should be an option in this game.
There's nothing stopping you from doing that, except you. Well, not the new character bit, but the "not saving every step". I don't save every step, and I think saving during combat shouldn't be a thing, so I don't save during combat, to the point where I'm not even sure you can, because I haven't tried. I do save before encounters though, more because I don't want to go back however long since my last save than due to any need to achieve the perfect outcome. I figure that that's what new characters are for.
