Styx is a great game in theory. Mechanics are solid and theres a good flow but theres no sense of accomplishment because of the quicksave system.

There you are in the ceiling looking down at a flask of amber inside a room with 2 armed dudes. After asserting the situation I conclude that I will have to use amber to steal it, is it worth it? Maybe I would've risk it, maybe I wont. Maybe theres other riches inside, maybe I have to use more amber to get out of there once I am in, and how will that affect the rest of the map.

Nope, quicksave -> run in and do a 360° and base your desicion accordingly.

One could argue that "then dont abuse it" and I did not. But still the system give it sort of a "trial and error" approach. Even if I plan my moves thoroughly, fucking up should force you to be careful, not to reload.

Edit; and knowing yathzee, this will bug him as well.
