Most Mondays for me start with waking up, enjoying a coffee in silence as the sun slowly breaks into my living room, before readying the kids for school, packing lunches with my wife, and doing the school drop off before typing away behind a keyboard all day. But this Monday was different, this Monday in particular had a clear schedule, and it had been set aside to enjoy a full day of Baldurs Gate 3 with my closest friend. We are separated by a great distance, and instead of catching up in a coffee shop for a weekly decompress, we meet up in Los Santos, Our Helldiver Frigates, or most recently, in Baldurs Gate.  While we normally squeeze in a few hours a week after hours, the stars had aligned for the both of us with a project wrapping up early on my end, and an early flight on his end. My wife, ever supportive of me, had organised the kids and drop-offs and both my friend and I were messaging each other to confirm a 9 am kickoff. All this joy would soon be met with a gut punch of sorrow, as we were about to go through the 5 stages of grief after losing our save file.
