Depends on the game, really. If there's a heavy RNG element to it, then yeah I might.

Just got around to playing Divinity Original Sin 2, and the combat system isn't the easiest to master, so I'm finding myself reloading before getting squad wiped.

X-Com 1 & 2, same thing.

Normally no, but I did do it while farming for specific gems in Bloodborne's Chalice Dungeons.

These days I don't play many new singleplayer games that let the player actually choose when to save. But I still savescum in Fallout 3, NV, and the Far Cry series.

I've had to do it a lot recently for Mass Effect.

I would've never finished the me2 insanity achievement without savescumming :lolbron:

The thing about savescumming is: it's not how many times you save, it's how many times you load.

I do it myself though. Pressing F5 is just so damn easy:manny:

Hitman & Hitman 2. To be fair a lot of it has to do with challenges needing a similar setup & I don't want to play through 10 mins of the same actions over and over again.
