This game has no auto saves?
Like, this game where you have about dozen routines and have to keep at least half of them in check, and then the game crashes after several hours long session... Like, is there a way to auto save ?

there is a rewind system which doesnt really work well in this title, that keeps all the autosaves hostage. basically if looking to load an autosave from the main menu youre SOL, can only access them while playing the game and im pretty they erase after you close the game BUT im not 100% on that.
didn't quite get it what you've said

I take it, the auto saves your way aren't too reliable

No autosaves but you can save at so many points throughout each day. I generally save before going to bed or first thing in the morning.

You definitely shouldn't be going through 'several hours long session' without even saving once.

I'm just not used to do that. Have to form a habit...

I found out saving every time there is a room for it isn't a guarantee. Half an hour uninterruptible sequence of scenes is quite common thing even after 20 hrs into the game

And crashes aren't common. The chance you'll get a game crash that will happen after half an hour of gameplay and not being able to save during that time is next to zero. If it was a legitimate issue they would've revised the system, they have not for multiple games now.

In short: you're looking for a problem that doesn't exist.

You are probably assuming I'm playing on normal setup. I don't. I play on linux with compatibility tool which often hangs game and I'm forced to shutdown the process

So you're running a janky linux setup you admit isn't running the game well (not the games fault)

you're not using the incredibly accessible save system which allows you to save literally 85% of the time you're playing whenever you want (the worst you'd lose is literally 20 minutes of progress if you're actually saving regularly) because you're "not used to manual saves" (it's literally 2 button presses and takes 2 seconds)

and despite crashing all the time you still aren't choosing to save? Lol, dude the problem is frankly entirely yours. Linux users smh

As someone who played P3 and P4 in their portable versions, I often wonder if P5 is either a dialogue heavy game or the PSP/PSVita just allowed me to put the games on sleep and pause for a bit the moment the discussions drag on.

Honestly, i'm leaning on this game just having mountains of scenes that does not let you save. So yeah, P5 has an exposition problem leading you to restart and do all those things again should you crash.

Let me elaborate.
First, my Linux setup isn't junky. In case you missed it, Proton Linux fixes 99% of incompatibility problems, and I've played a lot of games that had "just" released, including Hogwarts Legacy, Baldur's Gate 3, Cyberpunk 2077 and this list is about 15-20% of games I played on "junky" linux setup I've had for past 10 years on release day. And even if I had crashes or lags or slowness they were not a Linux problem, but a game problem, always.

"you're not using the incredibly accessible save system" I assume you're talking about same incredibly accessible save system which mister PinkDaddySasquatch said in very first comment isn't convenient and actually potentially more harmful using it than not. Albeit not 100% sure about it, but it's his word against yours now. See if he said it's 100% "incredibly accessible" as you said, I'd say nothing here.

"and despite crashing all the time you still aren't choosing to save" I am not choosing not to save, if you read it carefully, you'd understand that I'm just not used to it. I am forming a habit. I am not deliberately not saving progress. Also, it's not "crashing all the time" it crashes occassionally, often times right after moment when half an hour progress was made in palace where I didn't find next saving room to save in. Sometimes I am prepared for it and don't lose progress.

"Lol, dude the problem is frankly entirely yours. Linux users smh" I think you missed the point and making quick judgement cause you are most likely guy who has attention span shortened that much that you read first word of a sentence and that's all. Do better
And btw I deleted this game. So this discussion can be closed. I'll reserve reasons I did that cause many will find it "offsensive" apparently

no autosaves as far as im aware but in my 82 hour playthrough i never crashed or had any issues at all really. remember to save after long cutscenes and you should be fine
