The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition

Despite months of play, and now over 120 hours in-game, today I forgot one of the cardinal rules of Skyrim — indeed, of most any game: save regularly. I died in a fight I didn't think was going that poorly, and lost a bunch of progress and some rare loot (at least, stuff I hadn't come across yet) loot. Bit annoying. On the bright side, my horse had also died slightly earlier, and I resigned myself to having to buy another one because it had been so long since my last save (and, yeah, I didn't think to save then! What an idiot), so I got that back for free. Swings and roundabouts, I guess.
