For me it’s mainly a nice backup for when the Xbox or TV is occupied by someone else. I don’t think I’d use it as my prime source of gaming. It works but it’s not quite as good as the actual playing on your own hardware.

Saw that, isn’t it strange to never have seen that from any other app then?
Really looking forward to this… been itching for a new playthrough for quite some time now but saving it for the traverse day.
Looks pretty nice tbh! Probably going to stick to my current phone a few more years until it stops being updated but if I manage to break it this might just be the replacement.
Really? Any idea how?
I do use that. I have a Series X but I play on PC as well. Some games aren’t available on xbox and sometimes the TV might be occupied or I might want to squeeze in some quick gaming while already at my desk.
Well of course. There’s always room for improvement though.
You can still have checkpoints and auto saves at intervals. That way you can reload if you save a second before dying or whatever.
Meh, annoying save systems won’t stop me for buying an otherwise great game but it will somewhat bug me while playing.
Very much so! For the longest time I had a xerox of some gaming magazine with all the save codes for Lemmings!
Pretty much this. And if they’re worried about that just make it so you can only save and quit?
True but that won’t help with many modern games.
Ugh… I wish more developers kept their customers engaged by making good games instead of creating some meta game to keep the hamster wheel running. That feels like a lot of MMO’s…
I’d never play that on PC. It would work on xbox though since quick resume just let’s ju pop out to the dashboard and resume whenever. It’s not foolproof but I’ve only had to restart from a checkpoint a few times.
Some games seem to manage it quite well though? But yeah, they probably had to pit a lot more energy into implementing it.
Yeah, it really can’t be that hard to show a saving indicator…
I never really managed to get into NV. I really should give it another try soon. I loved 1,2 and 3. Played 4 a bit but lost interest after a while.
I think it’s the whole western vibe that NV has going on that put me off.
Might have to install it again and put some serious hours into it to see if I manage to get hooked.
Oh… I used to play this way back when! Might just have to install it again! Thanks fpr the trip down memory lane!
Same! I miss being able to use it for swipe actions like I could on my note 9 a few years ago too…
