Quits halfway
Darksiders has a lot of out of bounds glitching and to get at least one of the rooms to load, you have to reload the game (done from an autosave). It would be great to run, but would need resets in those very specific instances. It saves time over a regular run because you'd otherwise take a very long time doing arena-type fights and progressing normally.
The game is on both console and PC, so I don't think that making resetting banned on one version (especially because it's from an autosave and not an anywhere-save) is warranted.
The whole game might only have 2-3 loads from an autosave, not to fix any mistakes or luck manipulation, but just to trigger rooms to load when you go OoB. I'd like to run the game SS, because segmented would not be fun at all and would only be optimal by segmenting every autosave or even more often.
Edit:
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow should also be eligible. There's already a run with resets on the site and another category I'd like to do (all bosses) would greatly benefit from save-reset, although it's a special sort of save. You can glitch OoB to get a soul that makes you move about 5x faster, which you do about 6.5 minutes into a ~25 minute run. As you'd guess, that saves crazy amounts of time.
Also one for Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin, the run on the site uses it already. There's another category (NG with major skips/suspend glitch) that would make use of saving/resetting to get OoB and beat the game in about 1/5 the time of a non-SG run. Again, special sort of save, but maybe it should be classified as with resets.
