Yep. Playing FF XV atm and whenever I select “return to title screen” I see the warning and always think that it could’ve been developed such if you save and then choose to exit to title that the game would simply do that, recognizing that no additional game play occurred between the last save and the input to return to title.
I don’t even think all those check marks are really necessary. Just make it a “save and proceed/exit” type button and you’re good to go. save file sizes are tiny and it would just overwrite the last exit save that you can then load by pressing the “continue” button in the main menu. No back and forth or special tech necessary. If you want to load a different (manual or auto) save just select the “load game” option. That’s how all games should just do it.

Like, cmon, game.
Or when exiting, have the last save file time prompted as actual time and how long ago was the save made. That would be really helpful.
Some games do have this and it is definitely helpful when they do.
Edit: BioShock Infinite was the last game I played that did this.
