Do Save Files Slow Down Loading?

Post » Fri Nov 08, 2013 2:33 am

I tend to save a LOT and I'm not too good about saving over a previous save. I probably have anywhere from 50-100 save files (from the same character). Does having all these save files slow down my load times for areas, etc? It tends to take my game a LOOOOONG time to load, which I know is normal-ish but it seems like it's too long. I have the game downloaded to my hard drive so I feel like it should be a bit quicker than it is. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

One way to find out --- copy them off to a USB thumb drive and delete them from the system (that way you still have them but they are not on the system and see if it helps the game run any better with them not being in the saves folder !

And, try one of those older smaller saves and see if it loads any quicker.
