Save scummers, rejoice: this turn-based RPG is all about the dirty trick we all definitely didn’t abuse in Baldur’s Gate 3

Save scumming. We all do it. None of us like admitting that we’ve cheated the rules in an RPG, but one upcoming indie game canonizes the act of overwriting saves, so you don’t need to feel too ashamed. 

Save scumming is the simple act of reloading an earlier save and pretending you never made any mistakes in the first place. Maybe Liara caught you cheating on her in Mass Effect – you don’t want to hurt her feelings; she’s a gem – so you backtrack, sweep your current save under the rug, and act like the small infidelity never happened. Maybe Dragon Age‘s Morrigan keeps disapproving of your every decision, and since your insecurities only make her disapproval more attractive, you rewind and become the person you’re meant to be. Or maybe you just want to, ahem, test your new shiny gear in Skyrim on random villagers without all the bounties that go along with it.
