Can't you save manually?
Why should I have to
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
OH GOD LOL
You guys going to give me a valid reason as to why there shouldn't be a competent autosave or are you just going to continue to be condescending assholes?

okay lmao, get this
>do the boxing/fighting quests in Velen
>literally roflstomp every fighter in three to four hits, including the supposed "Champion Of Velen"
>get to fighting the Bloody Baron, a fat middle aged drunk who probably has little to to no fighting skills
>kills me in two hits
someone tell me why this game should even be worthy of a 7/10, let alone a 10/10?
the bloody baron is a mad war veteran, so...
how the fuck are you so bad though? like seriously
As are the supposed combatants that I fought with little to no difficulty, and none of them were overweight or alcoholic. "hurr durr ur jus shit" Yeah okay, I'm shit even though the difficulty between enemies is ridiculously inconsistent. Yeah it's just my skills given that lvl 6 bears give me no problem but a pack of lvl 4 wolves with insane hit detection kill me in a matter of seconds. Yeah it's totally me.

Did you guys timewarp here from 1990 or something?
No I don't wholly rely on autosaves to do everything for me. I save after every significant quest/when I turn the game off. I would at least expect however, the game to autosave during precise moments within gameplay, not 3 hours before I even started the fucking quest. This has been an imperative features for games since, well, I can remember actually playing games. Don't think I've ever encountered an RPG that didn't have the most basic of autosaves.
I've not even had a problem with the save system. It'll save and checkpoint pretty often for me, even then I don't trust autosaves.
3 hours sounds like a bullshit exaggeration.
I saved the game after killing that Draconoid thing in the middle of a field, then went on to begin the Hunting A Witch Quest. I get killed by one of the Wraiths in the cave (at this point I would have expected the game to have autosaved after every precise point in the level) but nope, end up straight back where I had last saved, having never started the quest. 3 hours is an exaggeration yeah, but I'm not that fucking far off.

wait do people actually play rpgs relying mainly on the autosaves
lol
>autosaves
>ever being good
>ever trusting the autosave
Is this your first RPG?
lol who relies on autosaves in any RPG?
Maybe stop being bad at the game too.
Nice jab as well. I know the autosave system is shit.

Consider the implications of these scenarios and whether they should constitute rape.
Scenario 1: One sober person has sex with a person who consents while drunk, but NOT drunk to the point of incapacitation.
Should this be considered rape? The first party obtained consent, albeit tenuously. At what point does being intoxicated eliminate any kind of consensual choices? How would this hold up in a court of law?
Scenario 2: Two people who are drunk, but not the point of incapacitation, consent to have sex, then one party claims rape the next morning.
Is that justifiable? Were they both raping each other? And again, how would this hold up in a court of law?

The astronomical cost of living is precisely because of the minimum wage.
BUT MUH GOODS AND SERVICES ARE 2 HIGH
Yeah no shit. You mandate companies to pay a required amount and they have to compensate all of the excess expense. Here's a novel concept. How about you let the market fix the wage rates so people aren't out of employment and paying $10 for a loaf of bread?
Yeah, but not cost of living like this. The median income is just shy of $100,000 here. A 3-bedroom single family home is a million dollars. Even if minimum wage was $20, that wouldn't pay enough to live here. A minimum wage for $11 isn't what's hurting us.
There's probably nuance as to why that is. I doubt the market magically came to the conclusion of a million dollars for a family home.
Is government heavily involved in the housing scheme where you're from? Because I wouldn't be surprised if it was.
No, it wasn't magically overnight. Over the last 20 years home prices have skyrocketed because of the location and schools here. My parents bought their 4-bed, 4-bath, 3 car garage, and a tiny-ass <100sqft yard for $250,000 in 1994. Last year it was appraised for $1.4m and it isn't even that nice of a house, comparatively.
It's a great investment for them, but you're fucked if you try to move here now.
I coudln't comment on govt involvement,
Shortages of housing seems more likely, then.
Regardless, I don't think artificially raising the minimum wage is the most viable answer. All it really does is just pour salt on the wound at this point.
But why not raise the minimum wage? Cost of living is going up. Even if they stay at the same wage, it's worth less. Regular jobs get a cost of living increase of a couple % every year, why shouldn't minimum wage?
Because, as I said, businesses need to compensate for the increase in expenses when minimum wage is increased, whether that be cutting down jobs (increasing unemployment), or raising the price of goods and services (increasing the cost of living).
Raising the minimum wage is literally the worst solution I can think of when the cost of property is at an all time high.
but keeping minimum wage at $X wont keep costs from rising, businesses will do that anyway. How are these people supposed to participate in the marketplace when they can't put a roof over their head? The economy thrives when more people participate in it.
That's the thing, I don't want to maintain wages at anything. Let the market fix the wages itself. Businesses will only reduce costs when necessary, such as an artificially altered wage.
The Scandinavian countries are a prime example of this. Literally none have a fixed minimum wage and their cost of living is exemplary.
How would the market fix itself? Why would a company ever charge less for a good or service than they do now, when they could charge the same [or more] as wages go down in order to increase profit?
Consumer sovereignty. When the minimum wage is eliminated, businesses have more leeway to charge prices that satisfy more consumers. When you arbitrarily set wages and demand businesses to pay those wages, they lose the autonomy to run the business however they like and satisfy consumers. This causes them to set prices to make ends meet. Without a minimum wage, the labour and goods/services market will equilibrate at a natural rate. Of course, privatisation of the labour market is useless without competition. That's why I advocate little to no government involvement that have a tendency to entrench monopolies.

Chamber Of Secrets segment dueling the Weasley Twins was literally my childhood.
Which version was that I don't remember doing that
Idk, I remember a game where the prologue was trying to find a goblin at the Weasleys, then dueling the twins. If it wasn't CoS the it might've been PoA.

Can't you save manually?
Why should I have to when 99% of games auto save at precise points within the story? Lack of autosave aids games like Alien Isolation where it adds to realism. It doesn't help RPGs where autosave is essential to progress.

It just came out moron
And?
You should probably expect the game to not be perfect on launch. As is with most games these days.
I would expect even the most buggiest of games to have a basic fucking autosave feature. Hell, Crash Bandicoot had one, and that came out in fucking 1996.
I can forgive glitches and graphical hickups. What I can't forgive however, is a basic fucking feature which we've had since the late fucking 90s. Like, what the fuck. I literally have to backtrack about 2 hours of gameplay just to find myself back in the spot I died? That's bullshit.
BHUT ITS BETTER THAN SKYRIM GUYS, TRUST MEH. MUH TROO RPG HAS FINALLY ARRIVED
