I bought a super fast NVME drive just for this game as I acknowledge that I am a save scummer and hit F5 before and after anything important happens. It's muscle memory by now. Someone looks at me sideways, they get an F8 to the face.

On top of that I do periodic named saves because I left number of autosaves and quicksaves set at default 25.

I realize I haven't Got Gud at the game as quickly as a result, and do respect those that only reload after a TPK.

When watching streams, I start to stress when the player hasn't saved in the last 5 minutes. It's the price I pay.
