It would suck even more to lose your save in a sandbox builder like Minecraft. Imagine working on a single world for years and then having it lost. Everything you built yourself, all your memories in that particular world, gone. A world you create yourself is easy to connect deeply with.

James Bond GoldenEye after getting 007 status on a save file, lol... That hurt so very much...

I would have to say any of them. Let's face it, have you ever lost a save and said "Well, I sure am glad I lost all that time and progress I spent on that game"
Nope

Final fantasy tactics. Just got the android release. Been binge playing. Had 20+ hours in. All save data gone.

Losing a save game in any tactical rpg is really harsh. I just lost my Fire emblem path of radiance save to a shitty third party memory card. You just prompted me to switch my save to an official psx memory card.

It's not like I rush the game either. I don't let anyone die. 20-30 mins per battle and 1/3 crash....

Has to be Skyrim for me, just because I played it more than anything else. Losing a save in Skyrim was devastating; hell, just dying after you haven't saved in an hour or two was devastating.

Yep, I can attest to that. I was missing a mod or something when Stean introduced paid mods, and couldn't get it back in the end. The whole thing was so messed up that I had to delete it.

I would say Fallout 3. I was about 12 when I lost my save file and burst into tears. I poured about 200 hours into that save. Now I make 6 save files in every rpg I play.

Oh my god, that game came out 7 years ago. Hot holy damn I feel so old now.

I do it incase I miss an autosave and die after a long play through.

GTA San Andreas. Oh, you just want to go fly around in a plane for a while? Nope, you're going to do all the missions again first, else we'll shoot you if you leave Los Santos.

Pokemon on the Gameboy. I traded so much with other people at school and on vacations. Until that one time my little brother accidentally overwrote it with a new game.
