    If I really enjoy the game I will have several different save points in my favorite spots so I can reply those scenes as much as I want. Used to do it pretty often with FFVII and FFVIII.

    I probably should do that. Then again, I tend to replay my games at least once.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition is pretty good. It auto saves, but also keeps 'milestone' saves that chart your major progress through the story. I've had to drop down to an auto-save once or twice if I forgot to change someone's equipment before embarking on an mission.

    anywhere from 3 to 6 depending on the type of game... RPGs usually get 6 with "save slot 1" reserved for the save at the beginning of each new chapter then i begin to overwrite 2 through 6 as i reach new save points... with this system i don't have to backtrack too far if i miss something early in the chapter or if a file gets corrupted i have plenty of backups that aren't too far from each other...
