    Same shit happens on Windows. Games will just install their shit literally all over OS with no rhyme or reason to it.

    Why can’t the save game and config.ini just be in the main god damn game directory? Nobody knows.

      I have my own directories on windows. I never use system provided directories for my own stuff, it always sucks. And if I want to move directories between drives or just change permissions, all hell breaks loose because everything depends on the default locations… So I just leave them be if I can.

      They’re probably trying to handle per user config. But nowadays, there’s mostly only one user using a machine.
