You just know how stocks or cryptocurrencies did, save scum, put all your money into something you know shoots up that day, and your money will grow exponentially so fast it's basically free money... Why is infinite money even close to save scumming?

Save scumming has MUCH higher potential but requires work. Infinite money is really all you need to be happy, tbh

The problem is save scumming in real life is a real pain, as you can't control the universe your consciousness travels to when you end it in this one, and it tends to move to the next one most like this one, where you currently exist.

The solution is literally a pain for you, as you need to send out an assassin to eliminate any versions of yourself in universes that are closer to your current self the one in a universe that is x amount of time in the past.

Such a program can be generated but, the tricky part, it's quite likely there are other versions of you doing the same thing, in universes that are similar to yours, so eventually this causes all but 1 to be obliterated, just your current one is highly likely to be one of them. Considering the end result is to cease your current existance and continue on in another universe that is back in time, this isn't too bad, it's just alot of pain and suffering experienced in the process.

The REAL danger though is when this occurs across a wide spectrum at the same time, with enough differences in each, to overlap, which can literally end up wiping out anyone in a universe that is similar enough to use the information you have. So you go through all that, and find yourself in universe where Russia rules the world, and all your for-knowledge is worthless.

For all intents and purposes it takes less effort, and technology to create an accurate prediction machine that can mathematically predict the order of events in this universe, especially in fixed location (such as earth).

Your save scumming system can avoid these problems by implementing Closed Timelike Curves to keep things on a single timeline and universe.

Should be mentioned that depending on the setup, save scumming might not be infinite lives, if you need to reload the save while concious. So if you are dead....no way to load a previous save.

Yeah, that's why I just start a new game after the previous playthrough. I don't have to carefully adjust things in order to get the results I want, but rather just go through and hope for the best. Less work, but more time and more fun. Plus when you get good results, it actually feels like you earned it.

Nah, there are a good portion of billionaires that are miserable. Acting like having 1 trillion dollars which is essentially infinite money in today's society solves every problem and makes everyone that has that much money super happy is a joke.

This. I save scum all the time, but I also have the advantage of not being spineless enough to deny that what I'm doing is blatantly cheating, and blatantly scummy.

no. if i'm playing x-com and my soldier (who is supposed to be the elite of the elite) misses a 99% with a shotgun from 1 compact car distance (or less) away i'm reloading that shit.

ofc they determine outcomes before the action so you have to change sequence order

Now I gotta totally watch that movie.

Only problem with this age is there are so many people that any crazy idea you could possibly have, has already been thought of.

Someone probably has already thought of drunken unicorns that seek out virgins and herd them into kennels so they don't become sullied, milking them for their innocence over time.

In a world dominated by unicorns, humanity is dying out, not through death, but from lack of sex!! Unicorn Armageddon, coming to a theater near you!!

Lol, that book looks awesome actually.

There were flesh eating unicorns in ...I think it was the Well World series by Chalker. Might have been the River of the Dancing gods instead...shrug too many...to long ago. But those are the only "evilish" unicorns I have read about at least.

But yeah, even totally wacked out ideas have pretty much all been done already at this point.
