The reduction in save file size is appreciated, but unfortunately it appears to be rather minimal. Just tested it on a couple of saves - after loading an existing file and immediately savings, looks like it went down from

  • End of Act 2 = 12.1MiB → 11.3MiB
  • Middle of Act 3 = 30.8MiB → 29.8MiB

So, only a 1MiB reduction it seems... So, still need to manage like 15 GiB of save files, lol

That is every save though. So when you are 50 quicksaves in on the 5 multiplayer games you have running... it probably starts to get significant

Eh, yes and no. It seems to be roughly a 5% reduction in size. So that means that you're only getting 1 extra save every 20. I was hoping for it to closer to halved, or more.
