OP Quote "just an experienced chef doesn't fail at cutting vegetables. " Well in Real life it is possible for a experience chef to roll a 1 and cut their own finger but I digress.
as for how I do it.. I play long sessions and I dont use quicksave. I only save when Im done playing.. so if I wanted to save scum I would have to redo 4 -8+ hours of content .. is it worth it? maybe but highly unlikely.
I do agree on some of the easier tasks.. its a simple task and absolutely no one is around I would just keep trying till it worked cause why not. That said this is a slippery slope cause one could say the same thing when you are in battle with 10 goblins that have 5 hps. I know I'm going to win why don't they just all lay down and die right now instead of making me fight. Extreme example but only you can prevent save scumming.
All that said .. for early access and trying to do all the content its not that big of deal to have save paths for major discussions and conversations and just follow each to their outcome scumming along the way ... .. for science
I save scum because I am testing the game. And as I don't want to do a 40 hours playthough for each permutations of dialogue, I should be able to check it the way I want. But when the game releases, I will definitely not save scum. I will just follow the flow of my adventures.
I do hope there will be an ironman mode with only one save when the game is out.
They said it better .. this ^
