I do not know how it could be fixed (perhaps a new storyteller - Henry Hertless?) but it would cool if you were unable to reload saves. Too often do I find myself reloading a past save when I am about to lose so that I don't have to start over. For instance, in minecraft, if you die you drop all your stuff and the game auto saves so you can't reload the game and have all your stuff again. Although frustrating it makes the game more fun, somehow. If saves were disabled, I would get way more frustrated (in a good way) if one of my favorite colonists died. But instead I will just reload the game and there will be no consequences. You could just play the game and swear you wont reload a save but that takes a lot of willpower and if I am failing in the game and about to lose the colony that I spent two hours building, I would, and I bet many other people would reload their last save.

Hardcore/Iron Man mode. The games handles saves automatically and player is unable to load previous ones. Absolutely needed as an option :D

I have renamed your topic to hardcore/iron man saves. Alot of people will know what that means since its used in loads and loads of games.

I guess, but I personally think implementing this is an almost waste of time, since you could just refuse to load...but whatev.
Why to people worry about following their heart? Its lodged in your chest, you won't accidentally leave it behind.

Its bad because reasons, and if you don't know the reasons, you are horrible. You cannot ask what the reasons are or else you doubt it. But the reasons are irrefutable. Logic.

It doesn't work that way with gamers ;)
