We also plan to implement side content later on where having Save Points set automatically within mainstream content could set a location far from ideal when you're attempting one-off Quests, this solution makes it entirely up to yourself to think about where the best place to set a Save Point would be.
The time thing is still a problem, Downsider's suggestion is solid. Like I said, 15 seconds may not seem like a lot when you look at the number, but it breaks the flow when you actually play a game. Gamers don't like that at all.
