While I'm equally annoyed that nobody does even basic reading to resolve their issues themselves, the fact remains broken saves is a genuine error worth noting & griping about. Surely even minimal testing would have revealed this issue?
Probably, yes. But the same question being asked multiple times, answered multiple times, then asked
again is just downright lazy & ignorant by the people asking.
Effectively it equates to:
The answer may be here but I can't be bothered to find it, so I'll just ask the same question that was posted and answered for the 50th time 2 posts above mine.
Doing the same again is absolutely ignorant. These people should have been taught, as children, to open their ears (eyes) before their mouths.
The fact of the matter is quite clear. The "gripe" has been raised many, many times. Raising it yet again is simply annoying repetition, widely known as flogging a dead horse.
It's been raised 50 times already, does the person raising it for the 51st time think that they are special, or that 51 is the magic number??
Guess what? They are not, it is not.
Asking for the 51st time does nothing that the 50th, 49th, 48th, etc. did not already do. (Except for irritating & disrespecting the people who have been kind enough to answer previously.)
Devs just telling users to play the whole game again is bullshit. Don't screw up the code and then the saves won't be broken.
Did this happen?
I didn't notice that the dev has told people to "play the whole game again", as per your claim.
Not sure why the "dev" would say that when, as the previous posts clearly show, you do
not need to play the whole game again. You merely need to load a save from v0.7, instead of v.08.
0.7 - 0.8, 1/9 episodes doesn't equate to the "whole game", in any way, shape or form?
