When I first started playing this game, the idea that I had to endure a 3-10 second freeze in frame rates every 20 minutes or so to accommodate an auto save feature didn't seem like an issue at all.

Now approaching the 1000 hour mark, I hate it. HATE IT. I find It disruptive, and always annoying.

I would much rather have claiming a bed and sleeping be the mechanism in which the game progress is saved...and instead of "world save in 30" I would like a pleasant reminder...

"You haven't slept in "x" days" Letting me know that my progress is in need of saving.
