Save Points
Hey guys, in the idea of Disscussion, here's a strange and interesting topic.
Save Points in D />
How would thy work?
Would they destroy the illusion of reality?
What good things could be gained from implementing such a mechanic?
What bad things would happen when such a mechanic is implemented?
How would you implements something similar which does not have bad elements?
I'll post my manifesto later, but for the moment just ignore your gut reaction of "that's a bad idea" and think about my questions. I'll give you guys the lowdown on my plans during break.

Kind of seems like a hassle to remember exactly what the status of the party was at exactly what point in time. Especially if the party doesn't reach a save point by the end of that week's session.
I've actually considered something like this as a viable option for a game of DnD, although you'd really need to change the format a little. It'd really make the game a little more like a video game, but one of the serious benefits would be that you could make encounters far more challenging, and so that way the party would really need to think about their strategy when it comes to each fight.
Quite frankly, I'd say its perfectly fine idea, but just an unusual one.
