For me, and the reason for this thread, it was Kingdom Come Deliverance. I finally got to playing it and decided to try it out. Beautiful scenery, more story focused than I thought it to be, not the cheeseable Bannerlord-like combat I believed it to have.
But gods be damned, that save system. If you don’t know: You can only save the game with a specific item - schnaps - in your inventory, which uses it up. Except that, it autosaves on quest starts and sleeping in the owned bed, as far as I know by now.
So here I am in the beginning zone, having already used all my schnaps, having tried different stuff engaging with the first enemies you are supposed to escape. Alright, lesson learned - But I won’t engage with that, so I immediately downloaded the Nr1 in popularity, and nr1 in listing, so likely the first mod made, for the game - Unlimited saves, eliminating the need for the schnaps. Great!
So here we continue with the game, and I get far enough where I’m getting to …
I really like “sanctuaries” in survival games. The Prydwen in Fallout 4 or Whiterun in Skyrim for example. It’s just so nice to know that, if you want to, you can easily take a break from the horrors of the world by going to a safe space, or “sanctuary” and just relax for a bit. What about you?
