It drives me crazy when I try to exit a game and it tells me that I'll lose all progress after the checkpoint, and I have no clue where was this "checkpoint".

 

Games should bring back the manual save. Even if it is just one slot; at least I would know when I'm safe to quit the game. I never understood this auto-saving craziness unless it is done right (like the Souls games, which inmediately save everything you do so that you don't cheat; and even then, they politely ask you to leave the game properly so that it can save without problems).

 

Several times I've tried to save in recent years and not a feature so go "Crap...when was last auto-save?" and end up playing not because I want to, but because need to get to next one to be able to turn off system without losing data.  If I am really tired I have put PS4 in sleep mode so can hop right back in next day, get to auto save and then feel safe won't lose data. Just cross fingers no major storm and power outage during that time.
