I played 1/2 H and I have of to stop..
This morning, paf, I have to begin again everything in zero.
Did not especially say to me that they did not foresee protection in the demand, but only put protections in control points.
That becomes a custom to make games so as to annoy the customers that we are.
I do not see what that can make if a player wants to save his progress when he wants him{*it*}.
I have impression{*printing*}, which the more one advances{*moves*} in the time, the more games are invalid (in part someone)

My translation:

I played for a half hour, and then had to stop. Then I started playing again this morning, but everything was reset back to the beginning. The game didn't tell me that I couldn't save anywhere, but could only save at certain spots.

That's becomming more common, and it annoys me as a customer. I don't see why I shouldn't be able to save my progress anywhere I want to.

((I couldn't get much from the last bit.))

You should read the manual, I bet it mentions in there about saving points and stuff.

My guess on what he means, due to Sheyla translation, is that he's playing this game that only allows you to save your game at certain points in the game. What this guy is saying, is that he didn't know about this and thought that he was saving is game from where he left it, but as it has a save point, it continued from there, instead from where he thought he had saved it.
Then he goes on to say that he would prefer if future games would just let people save their game at any time, not when the game tells you that you can.
I do agree, but at the same time I do see the idea behind the whole checkpoint thing. It's just the developers way of getting you to play a little longer, "play more and you'll find the save point".
