How does the save system work?

[Chocos Ramabotti]

Does it have save points with consequences where you die like in SMT3? Or is it casual and the game has unlimited saving and auto-saves?

[REBirthTheEdge]

It only has 15 save slots* and you cannot save in the dungeon, but the game has an auto-save system where it auto-save each time you get into a fight, and re-load that if you got a party-wipe (no change in HP/MP tho).

So half & half?

So far the game is challenging though, probably the hardest JRPG I play in years.

[JCKLNTRN]

You can usually save anywhere in town, or while on the gauntlet runner.

In dungeons you can only save at rest areas or the cat, which act as save points.

[Chocos Ramabotti]

Well that's something at least I suppose, there seems to be a minimum of consequence.
