      In emulation if you are using retroachievements rewinding / save stating gives you a ‘lesser’ achievement so the precedent is there from the groups that already invented such a thing

        Doesn’t seem like a good sell if they do it that way, though. Let’s invest money and time into this feature that we will disincentivise people from doing by reducing their rewards if they use it.

        Works for people doing these things as a hobby project and accounting for functionality that currently exists, but not great for a corporation that would need to convince devs to implement the feature into their games and design around it.
