There's really no need to sugarcoat these things. Sure, there are saves and they technically work, but the whole system is far, far from what it should be and it's indeed not what people expected when DC said saves would work. I mean, it's the only game I know where you constantly have to be aware to not potentially mess up your savegames and where you simply have to hope that your saves from the last update may indeed work. Sure, there are some games where old saves don't work at all, but they usually offer other mechanisms to cope.
Right now for SS it's just a confusing situation which really should be improved to make the whole experience more player friendly. It's simply in everybody's interest.

That's to some degree what I meant with the problem seems to be fixable with money. By now the capacity to recode things without renewing the story or the art for the sake of perfectly working savegames should be there. At least in my opinion the argument of not wasting money, as it was very legit 2 years ago, gets a little weaker once the budget rises by this much.
