Creating new saves for legacies?
So I've seen plenty of players talk about how they start a fresh save for each generation of their legacies, and I was just curious how people really go about doing it? Do you save everyone to your li...

Correct me if I'm wrong legacies players, I don't play them very often. But, from reading threads here I believe what they do is just use 'save as' at the end of a generation with that same save file, and rename that save to 'Generation 2' or something similar at the beginning of a new Gen. I don't think they start a completely new game save from scratch. That would be A LOT of work to accomplish and yes, doing it that way you'd lose relationships, at least.
By doing this, you'll have a save game file for each generation in your legacy. I'm guessing this is a fail-safe in case something should happen to go wrong, whether the file gets corrupted or something and you'd be able to go back a generation and start over without losing much. I can see how this would be beneficial too if you just wanted to go back and use a different heir to see how the gameplay goes with them too.
I hope this helps! :)
