What I would like is...

I usually play with several characters when I play games like this. One for stealth/theft, one for magic, one soldier etc. And in my opinion this game is made for one character. You have to put your character on a save file, wich you can accidently overwrite if you dont look close enough.

Wouldnt it be cool to see your characters in full size when you start the game, and choose who you want to play with?
I realize you can do this with the savefiles as well, but it just feels so tricky

Anything is an upgrade over the save file system they have implemented now.

Giant list of saves = No bueno.

Yeah like you see your characters in the menu and you pick up were you Last left off with that character. Also I would like a delete spells button to remove destruction and Reatoration out of my enventory

I saw a mod that had a character save manager at skyrim nexus, haven't tried it myself yet. I just rename the saves charactername1 and save over that file to keep it from getting so out of hand.

I agree. At the least, let us rename our saves... For a game this in-depth, I never understood why they wouldnt have a better way of organizing your saves. Even on loading screens, it tells you to save as often as possible... Sometimes Bethesda makes you wonder.

I too agree with this, I've saved over countless files by accident, I wouldn't mind seeing a more Fable II styled save management system where you select load but instead of Tarrot cards and a picture of where you are currnetly it should be your character and what ever she's/he's wearing and using.

This could be a temp. fix for computer users, but Ive sold mine, and I'm playing on a PS3. So, make me a mod for the PS3! :-D
