Persona 3 Reload’s ‘rewind’ feature does your save scumming for you, and it’s a blessing for people pleasers

Is there any worse feeling in gaming than having a pleasant conversation with a character and accidentally saying something that completely offends them? Misleading dialogue options can be the bane of any people pleaser’s life in role-playing games, but mercifully, developer Atlus has made sure it never needs to happen again in Persona 3 Reload thanks to its new ‘Rewind’ feature.

Rewind is basically an advanced version of autosave. In each in-game day, a save state is created at key points, such as after school ends or in the evening, and you can jump back to any of the most recent five at the click of a button. It’s ideal for rectifying the small, annoying mistakes that might normally have you kicking yourself had you not saved your game recently, like forgetting to buy healing items before a fight, or forgetting to harvest your crops. However, it’s also particularly useful for save scumming when interacting with non-playable characters (NPCs) to make sure you never mess up a conversation again.
