I disagree with those who do not want an autosave. You should be given a choice how often you want to autosave and whether the feature is on or off. I have played DD now for over 60+ hours with the game quicksaving approximately every 10 minutes and is great if you accidentaly die. I have created a script to automatically do this (most of the time). See the following link ->
