Load List vs Continue

Load List vs Continue

Both Load List and Continue load saved progress — but they serve different intents.

Continue

Use Continue when you want the system to:

• Automatically select the best playable profile

• Resume exactly where the player left off

• Skip menus, invalid scenes, or transitional states

Continue is intent-based. The system decides what to load.

Load List

Use Load List when the player must:

• See all available profiles

• Explicitly choose a specific playthrough

• Manage or delete profiles

• Start from a non-last profile intentionally

Load List is choice-based. The player decides what to load.

When to use each

• Main Menu → Use Continue

• Save Slot Screen → Use Load List

• Quick Resume → Use Continue

• Multiple Stories / Characters → Use Load List

---

Key takeaway

Continue resumes a story. Load List lets the player choose a story.

They are complementary — not interchangeable.
