From the looks of it, there's no way to manually save — no problem, since the people who made the game prolly wanted to make the choices feel meaningful, and not something you go back and forth on...

However, there's also no indication that the game has autosaved at any point — which means I've sometimes made choices, gone through dialogues, thought that was a good place to quit... only to relaunch the game, hit resume, and find myself having to go through pieces of dialogue I'd already gone through.

Dunno if it saves before fights, when you camp, when you reach towns/villages, when you make any sort of choice... So, yeah: when does the game autosave, exactly?
