When you save your game are you the sort to save at every special moment, every chapter, or do you just keep the one save?
I generally keep 2. One for the game as I go on and a second for special sections that I can't leave or whatever.
Depends. For visual novels - especially when they don't have a quick chapter select feature - I keep a save file at every important point in the story. For RPGs I stick with two (the extra is for security reasons)
1 per playthrough.
i hope sefie comes here to state her over 100 saves. or maybe.... maybe someone has 1000
One per playthrough.
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
If I'm playing on PC and I'm allowed unlimited saves I'll pretty much always use a new save every time I manually save. Except for in Starcraft.
Most WRPGs I make a new save each time. Good ol' JRPGs get one save each. I think this is just habit from memory cards having limited space.
I keep 3. Both in case one of them gets corrupted, as well as if I screw up and can't progress properly in the game. It's nice to be able to go back a bit and fix it.
FF games- about 3 just in case I up
Other games- just one
On pc i make a new save every time incase i want to go back and take screenshots or something
on old consoles with limited space i liked to cycle between 3 saves. I went up to about 12 on the ps3 generation. everything in the latest generation is all autosave though but ill wtill make a backup if im about to do something irrevesible

I keep about 8 slaves.
...Uh, I mean saves. Yes, of course.
I generally run with two, a primary and a secondary I typically use before entering dungeons, especially if I have a feeling it is a major plot dungeon.
Two. One main, one 'just in case I miss something' which is usually an hour or two behind the main one. It then become one save per playthrough right at the end, like a record, for NG+ and the like.
I used to keep only one, but then I got scared about games glitching out and messing up my saves. So now I rotate through 3 saves.
