Ngl, it's become quite tedious having to replay the game over and over each time it gets updated, once or multiple times, cause saves don't carry over.
You might think this doesn't matter, but it does since we have choices that we'd like to carry over, hence having to play from the start again and again. Not only that, but this is probably one of the grindiest games I've played (There are worse out there, I agree), the cheat helps with that, but it's still tedious to replay things like 5 times or more to keep your choices and get to see the new stuff after 3-4 hours of replaying.
Putting in time or figuring out a way to make it so that saves can be transfered from update to update would make this game way more appealing to pick up again after it's been updated. But that's just imo. Also wanna state that it's probably one of my only complaints about this game, rest is nice aside from random hacky bugs here and there, lol.
