"Repeated quicksave" =/= save scumming, as quicksaves are overwritten by consecutive ones. 🤦🏼‍♂️ Tell me your article is AI-gen without saying it is. 🖕🏼

    BG3 has a limit of quick saves it keeps. I think by default it keeps 10.

    But just the same, it's still save scumming if you save just before a check and reload if it fails. You don't need several saves to do that.

    The term is not exclusive to BG3 by a long shot, and while quicksave scumming is pseudo-possible in BG3, the syntax of the article is imprecise, misleading, and incorrect. Don't apologize for shite "journalism", citizen. We are now living through what happens when that's normalized, FFS. 🤌🏼
