I’m not talking about suspend resume.
I’m talking about saving in the middle of a boss fight, and reloading back to the middle of boss fight if you can’t beat it.
Some people might say that’s cheating. But if you are facing a tough game, and you have limited time, save states can be really helpful for feeling like you were able to overcome a challenge, but in a manageable timeframe.
Or, just being able to skip thru repeating dialogue or cutscenes.
Save states are the only way I was able to get thru harder older games like mega man
I haven’t tried it myself. But, if time is your main constraint, and if a switch emulator has it, save states may be really helpful. Saving during the middle of a boss or puzzle can be a time saver. Restarting in the middle of a boss fight or puzzle so you don’t have to return to the beginning each time you screw up.
Am I right that android/iOS apps require much more maintenance than PC programs? I can load up a copy of WinZip from 2000 and it would work fine, but anything that hasn’t been updated in a few years might be hidden on the app store for not working with my version.
I think that’s the bigger issue. Developers can’t leave stuff up and just let it sit, because you need to maintain a developer acct to have anything listed, and os updates break things
Stop killing games? Hard to believe that StarCraft had this issue solved and we still can’t figure it out for newer games
