Paid cloud saves with no portable alternative is a lot of bs

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago

Maybe I'm weird, but I've never needed cloud saves. I play on one device, and when I'm done with the game, I don't care about my saves.

I think I've used cloud saves on Steam once, and that was to play with syncing between Steam Deck and PC. It's just not a thing I value.

Maybe it uniquely impacts you, but I'm guessing the quiet majority are more like me. Then again, I grew up in the OG console days where saves were stored on the cartridge itself.
