@Zarkonnen i tend to only reload when things go really badly (game over ofc, but also stuff like a character irreversibly dying who I don’t want to die, accidentally starting a war because of some glitch or misunderstood/badly made game mechanic, that sort of thing). But I’m more of a casual player when it comes to that kind of games. I don’t feel the need to do things over and over again until I did them perfectly or sth like that. (Talking mostly about strategy RPGs here like baldurs gate 3 or fire emblem: three houses, both of which I started playing because the story and stuff appealed to me, not because of the strategy game aspect, but especially with fire emblem three houses started to like the strategy game aspect after playing it for a while)
