Sorry for your loss
>>3285602
thanks I guess
>didn't save for over 100 hours
entirely your fault. You can use a save editor if you're desperate
>mfw about 100 hours lost
How? I'd seen everything the game has to offer at around 30 hrs

After one game, I'm not sure which - maybe Deus Ex? - ate my quicksave once, costing me couple hours of play, I have a habit of making a rolling save system where I use all availible slots in sequence and if a save is minor change, save on the old slots - so I have ability to go back quite while back if I need.
I do it with pretty much every non-linear game, up to this day.
If I'm playing multiple sessions/with someone else using same computer and there is no profile system, I divide availible slots to playthroughs. If there is infinite amount of saves, I decide on a maximum amount (usually about 20) and start overwriting the old ones so I don't clog up the menu, and also it's a habit because Deus Ex saves were able to get quite large so I did that to save HDD space.
Might sound ritualistic, but if games allows saving at any time (or really, multiple saves in the same game at all), I do it instintcually.
Hack yourself an item, genius. There are a bunch of tools for this exact purpose

>he played it with the Fuck Everything Up patch for his first playthrough
You deserved this. Scorch the install directory, reinstall the actual game and do not install fanfiction mod trash because some giant gay neckbeard who hates speech checks, walk speed and melee combat and thinks 10% of a finished module is enough to "restore" it says he "fixed" it.

I do the same shit for the exact same reason. I forget the game, but I had gotten far and was almost to the end when something fucked everything. After that, rolling save file system. I do it out of habit these days, though I rarely see a benefit to it anymore.
Who cares, you know how it ends don't you
>>3287350
no, but I know there is gonna be an intense fight
>>3285571
Don't worry anon, your shit build would've been stomped out by ol' Frank anyway.
>>3287369
He's overrated.
>>3287371
Unless he brought the maximum amount of companions he would've gotten shitstomped.
>>3287375
With the help of the Enclave squad and Turrets he's easy Tbh
>>3287378
No science, no turrets. OP Would've been fucked.
>>3287381
But don't the turrets activate with the presidential pass ?
>>3287384
You don't know that you need the presidential pass without having science. A low science score only lists J.Smith as users and doesn't let you access the Counter Insurgency Protocol line either.
