Any way to reset just specific memories?

[Jaggid Edje]

So...at first I didn't fully understand how the memory system works, and when I got to the alter of hope after finishing an expedition I was making sure to lock in a memory for every hero in the party that didn't already have the new slot unlocked.

I did this all the way through the 3rd confession, on every hero class.

Now I understand that I can slot a memory into the unlocked slots even for classes that were not on the most recent expedition, as long as they have previously unlocked the slots. i.e. repeated runs can be used to get more decent bonuses rather than 'settling for' whatever is left over after a few heroes have already cherry picked the best ones.

So that brings up the question, is there ANY way to remove and reslot just one specific memory? Or are you stuck with them once you set the memory, unless the hero is killed/re-rolled, which resets them all?

Once you pick a memory you stuck with it.

*sigh*

That's what I thought the answer was, but I was really hoping that I was mistaken.

I saw a "reset memories" option at the Crossroads, but I don't know what it does.

With any luck it would remove the memories without losing the unlocked slots. Then you could do some easy run and give the hero one a good memory (or multiple). But I have no idea if it actually works like that.

Reset memories gives you a fresh new hero, new quirks new everything. They do not remain memory slots.

yah, I tried it (after backing up the save folder) and it is definitely not the option I am looking for. It resets the hero, entirely. Same as dying, without all the bloody mess, basically.

Okay, so I found a solution.

If you open your save directory and go into the "Actors" subfolder of the most recent save, you can easily edit the text files to remove the specific memories that you want to get rid of. You just have to cut out the memory and replace it with the word "null". This gets rid of the memory but does not re-lock the slot.

They really do need to add the option to remove a memory to the game. Chasing that "perfect combination" of memories for a specific build you intend to run would add to the replayability factor of the game, imo.

Well that's unfortunate. Why doesn't it say "kill hero" instead?

Better, why doesn't it just erase memories without touching anything else (including unlocked Memory slots)?
