It's not a unity thing. This is the only game I played that did this and I played a bunch of unity games.Really? As development choices go that is bizarre.
Seems like this is a Unity thing though.

Yes Dude it is a Unity thingIt's not a unity thing. This is the only game I played that did this and I played a bunch of unity games.

I think it is "best practice" to create a "proper" save location/method, but perhaps Uber failed the "best practice" portion of his education or simply disagrees with that particular standard.
Keep looking, most games Unity or otherwise have failures in best practice, but I imagine this is a rare situation because the vast majority of people learned first on a language other than Unity (which didn't have default saves to registry), and carried on that practice when they started with Unity (it does make more sense after all).Guess I haven't played enough badly programmed unity games then.
I get that. I can excuse a lot with games like these, because most devs are amateurs. I feel in all these years now, he should have reworked the save system by now. But that's another topic.Keep looking, most games Unity or otherwise have failures in best practice, but I imagine this is a rare situation because the vast majority of people learned first on a language other than Unity (which didn't have default saves to registry), and carried on that practice when they started with Unity (it does make more sense after all).
You just have to remember many of the Devs here were amateurs/hobbyists before attempting to develop extra income from developing games, I think Uber was one of them, learning as he went by trial and error, To learn best practice you really need a mentor to proofread your work and kick your ass when you start to take shortcuts.
All these years? How many more years would have taken for Uber to revise and correct the save system? I think he is first and foremost an artist, he has always struggled with code and strictly speaking he can be excused for not seeing it needed something better, it's a VN (it's delusions of being a sandbox not withstanding), the number of variables it needs to track are negligible, I agree it would be better reworked (which could potentially fix several of the persistent bugs), but on balance between the amount of time it would have taken for him to actually do the work and the amount of time it takes to do a workaround is significant (another reason you need a mentor, he'd have spotted earlier the false economy of workarounds vs doing the job right in the first place).I get that.

Its a Dev be lazy thing or more likely didn't want to figure out how to do it.Really? As development choices go that is bizarre.

I have played several that do this but I agree most Unity Devs don't use the reg. as a save location its not best practices for sure.It's not a unity thing. This is the only game I played that did this and I played a bunch of unity games.
We can only pray he does fix the save issues along with all the other bugs we have been answering questions about for the last 4 years. Unfortunately Uber has to view it as an "Issue" other wise the coder is likely to be powerless to change it.All these years?

But AFAIK he has a actual dedicated coder on the team now, so maybe reworking the save system will be high on his TODO list.
I will quote the same post again after 3 more years..This game will never be finished with one tiny update every half a year, what a joke.
Who cares if games like this are ever finished? Once a developer is "finished" they don't add more content for the game. I like continued content. Whether you like the series or not, shows like "Simpsons" and "South Park" have been creating content for over decades -- why can't video games do the same?I can quote myself from 2020..

Yup, that option has been discussed in this thread several times in the past. Congrats for getting it to work for you. As a reminder, notes to anyone who decides to fuck around with their Windows Registry:Thanks for your advice guys, right now the save files are working img, If anyone wants to now I had to follow this guide (guide) from the Microsoft forums. Everything seems normal by now and hopefully my SSD doesn't crash and burn in the next few days hahaha
they are all easy to find with google if you type the exact phrase,Guys i need y'all help, i cant seem to find this task
Nobody has thatCan someone be a hero/legend and send the recent testing build for the upcoming update?
2 posts per month isn't enough? idk bro, that gives us a pretty good idea while being misterious on what uber is working on for the update.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
By the end of July would be my guesshow much for update guys? any ideas?
And another 6 months after your guessBy the end of July would be my guess
