Save System
Is there any in fo about the save system?
Especially on hard difficulty for example only save at the base?

There are 3 other games in this series so you can make an educated guess

I am unsure if they limit saves on higher difficulty. But too many years of jank have changed me from "If I don't play with an ironman checkbox I am a cheater!" to "I have seen games softlock you to death in the intro sequence room. I'll challenge myself voluntarily, it cuts save corruption issues in half."

That said I also have horrendous luck with edge case bugs. I can discover "So you got punched walking through a door. sending you outside of the map forever and your save auto-overwrote in that state" insanity.

If you are ever tempted to feel guilty for not having hard limited saves. Just remember. A big boy can delete their own saves. A call of duty baby needs their hand held as the game deletes for them, pats them on the head, and tells them they are so brave for dying to a physics glitched safety cone.

(Ink ribbon style saves just encourage rote memorization over skill anyways. no middle ground between low due to caution saves and a mountain of spares that way)

They better have free saving including quicksaves. I like to play around with how I deal with stuff.
there are hard saves, quicksaves. and probably an autosave function too (whether its based on time. or checkpoints in missions IDK)

I can promise there isn't any of that "only save at base/campfire" stuff. thats a mod function, not from the base game

If guess its the same as in the older entries. Most new games have no save restrictions since wasting the players time with negative progress is usually a negative aspect in the eye of the enduser.

You can always restrict yourself
