Borderlands 2 Read-Only farm

[shabbakun]

I recently got Borderlands 2 and it runs really well with a 60FPS patch.

I was wondering if there was a way to read-only farm on this game without having to quit the game and reload. On PC, you can set your save file to read-only to avoid overwriting it in order to farm one-time quest rewards until you get the one you want. Is this possible on the switch?

Alternatively, is there a way to restore a save while the game is running? AFAIK for JKSV and Checkpoint you can't run in applet mode to restore saves.

You are able to farm quest rewards if you quit the game and restart it, but that takes reaaally long with the loading screens. I did look into backup/restoring but if it involves quitting the game, it kinda defeats the purpose lol

You’re going to have to quit the game to do anything with save games

The fastest way would be with a switch emulator since you could probably set that save to read only. If not it would still be much faster
