Baldur’s Gate 3 Is About To Prevent You From Save Scumming

Save scumming is a staple of many Baldur’s Gate 3 campaigns, but it looks like developer Larian Studios is finally going to directly address the practice with an update for the game. As a general term, save scumming refers to saving games right before risky moments and reloading upon failure in order to achieve a more desirable outcome. Baldur’s Gate 3 makes it particularly easy to employ this strategy and build a laundry list of backup points, as saving is possible at any time besides cutscenes and never has to overwrite any previous files.
