Quick saves are automatically overwritten?

Post by Gotcha! »

Hi there,

I had started a game of Serpent Isle and was quick saving mostly.
Eventually I wondered about the characters' starting stats, so I started a new game to see these stats.

Afterwards I loaded my quicksave and it's gone. Then I found out that the game quicksaves whenever you start a new game or load an old game.
That's not really logical. Quicksaves should only be triggered by users, not by the game. That's how every other game in the world works.
When the game saves, they're called autosaves.

It's very confusing, not to mention time costing, since I can basically start all over again. >_>

Yes, it's not exactly working as in other games. But as in other games save often AND in regular save slots
