I understand what you mean. I never said that a save feature isn't
necessary, I just don't agree with the saving anywhere method. I think not
having the ability to save for a while, and the frustration involved is part
of the challenge. I see the reasons people have for liking it, I just don't
like it myself

Hi,
Minusing a save feature is good for some games--however, with a lot of
other games the games are simply too long to not include a save feature.
We have to account for the player having a life outside of the game as
well. Plus, getting so far and then losing, and losing again and again
because you failed to dodge ONE missile will get a lot of players
frustrated. This is why with Three-D Velocity, for instance, a "save
anywhere" feature will be available in the story mode.

but that's the whole point, isn't it? of course there's risks involved
with saving in redefined places. Sometimes I wish that in invincible
tiger, you could save after every chapter or something, but you can't,
and I'm glad for that, it makes the game a lot harder and more fun. what
you guys don't realize is that if we have the ability to save anywhere in
a game, we're most likely going to use it. it's an impulse thing. oh no
I'm gonna lose! let me save. but if that temptation was removed by not
having the feature at all, we'd enjoy the game more in the longrun.
