Are you kidding me? It's there for like 20 seconds tops.
This is such a nothing to be complaining about.

Why do games still use ugly system UI overlays to save the game? It’s immersion breaking, slow and annoying.

Having to do dpad right, x, wait five seconds and then dpad right, x is very annoying in Yakuza. Why do they need to ask me twice if I want to save when I've already stated my intent on the phone booth?
It's a safety thing. They don't want you to overwrite an already existing file that you don't want to lose.
It makes perfect sense, games have done this for years.
can be a bit annoying, but is such a non issue. It also tells save feature is a system wide function and not inside the game, and for the same thing personalize i can take more time/resources.
Anyway, seems a classic OP thread where he barely participate in his own thread, and only answers to people with very bad takes or people agreeing with him.

That's annoying. Now we know it's possible to do the same thing on PS4. Some devs are just choosing not to.Yeah this bothers me too. The Switch and Xbone versions of FF12: The Zodiac Age have a lovely re-creation of the original PS2 save screen, which shows all kinds of party info and stuff
But then the PS4 version uses this... Loads of info is stripped out, and it's so much uglier, slower and clunkier. I hate it.
I realize this is a stupid thing to complain about, but it does bother me. I wouldn't say it's "immersion breaking", but given how much slower and uglier it is, it's a bit of a bummer.
Never had a PS4 but noticed the same sometimes on PS3. I wouldn't call it immersion breaking but it was ugly, slow and had some weird scaling issue on the fonts. PS4 looks decent I guess but looking at that Spider-Man video the weird pauses/waits between the game and the system UI look like rubbish.
I didn't think about BC. Yeah not for those. Hell it's probably in their best interest to do as little as possible for PS4 games in order to make the next console look better.
The "nothingburger" thing was my way of mocking the mean responses but I'm not sure it got through. Shame OP bailed
Most obvious reasons:
- Cheaper and easier to implement since you don't need to design/code/test/bugfix/localize your own.
- Guaranteed to not fail at certification.

I don't think it's that big a deal, but I do wish more games saved faster (menu navigation and actual saving). P5 is so great about this.
OP
OP
This safety thing makes sense but who the hell doesn't want to save when they actually save? Like 0.01%?
These archaic save games are something I only really associate with Japanese games.
Save game not found , would you like to create new save?
Of course I frickin' would. I'm not using a 8MB memory card.
Also the weird serif'd fonts that they insist on using.

Yes, I agree with you. It's not a big deal but it's definitely a little disappointing and ugly when a game does this
Dishonored 2 has quick save on ps4. I wanna say Prey does as well.
No, it's really not fine, it sucks ass
The checkpoint system is the only part of Control I actively dislike
There are times when I'm rotating save slots or I'm using the different slots for whatever reason. I don't want to overwrite the save slot I loaded the game with, with a new save. Stuff like that.
