Baldur's Gate 3's huge launch has reignited the age-old debate about save scumming.

I try to think of it in terms of how it would go at a D&D session.

For example, if i roll perception well, seeing a tile is trapped, and tell the DM i avoid it, he's not going to have some NPC trigger it because i forgot to tell them to stop following me, so i feel justified in reloading a save in that case.

Yeah, absolutely reloading after I click on a barrel to search but it's not that kind of barrel so my character smashes it and explodes us all.
