@androidarts@mastodon.gamedev.place It shouldn't take more than 2 hours to redo 2 hours of work. It would have to be a really unimportant project for that not to be worth it.

@yora@mastodon.gamedev.place Would be true for programming, but not for creative work, which can simply be impossible to recreate if you can't remember that little neat piece of wording etc. It's like redoing a drawing... sometimes it's better, but it can also get much worse because when you wrote it an nudged everything into position you are in the most informed state. Reconstruction from fragments is much harder, prone to tangling up. Even if you can somehow do it, it's still a blow and loss of time.
