include in-game saves to savestates

[LunaMoo]

We have a thread for feature requests here.

Most likely noone will work about optional feature like that through because it's bad, would make rewind useless or even force disable it and increase the time and size of normal savestates as well.

Abusing savestate feature in general is bad not as much because savestates might be buggy, but because games are naturally complex software with it's own bugs and stability issues, even on real hardware most games would end up buggy after many hours of play and abusing savestates is simulating this occasionally leading to memory corruption. This links to time paradox issue as both of them are caused by users laziness and lack of imagination.

In the end as discussed in the past this would be solved better by informing users to not do dumb stuff. IMO preferably in a form of bothersome warning that popups on their screen and stays there for a while before giving any choice forcing affected people to read and understand the situation they created. That would also help much more people as it could be active by default which keeping savedata copies could not because of it's negative consequences that most of us would not want.

Even that might not be implemented any time soon, because it's really a non-issue, most games does not have such protections and even with few that does it affects very few of users which then can easily fix it by themselves by just restarting the game and loading normal in-game save which additionally clears any potential memory corruption issues as well. Or in some more popular cases use a cheat to break that useless game feature(at most protecting savedata made on different memsticks) completely.
