Quick save, do you use it? Options

Just a question. I voted for "Always". I can't live without it.

I voted "never", since there isn't a quicksave feature on consoles for Oblivion. Not that I know of anyways.

This must be a PC thing, huh?

.... There is a quicksave for Skyrim's Kinect on Xbox (you literally say "quicksave" and the game does this within 3 seconds) but there isn't one for Oblivion. I quicksave quite often in Skyrim, and make more permanent saves at moments that seem epic. And if I somehow forget to do this, I have no one to blame but myself.

While we're on the subject of saving, let me ask: when do you guys & gals choose to save? Is there an exact moment? .. for some reason, I often make Oblivion saves if my character's in the middle of doing something; like opening a gate, a door, or casting a spell. This way, later on if I load my game up, I'll get to see this door opening or closing, or a spell being cast, or my character on horseback, jumping in mid-air, or something equally as cool.

I actually wasn´t kidding, I usually save about every four-five minutes regardless of what I´m doing. Those saves gets deleted by and by as I make new saves. Every now and then I also make a permanent save which usually is a nice piece of scenery or something. That way when I scroll down my save list it´s like looking through my character´s personal photo album
