All you really need is about 2 or 3 save files, and then the rest is autosave. I too used to have a bazillion save files, but then i learned that just waiting for an hour initiates an auto save, and i save actual deliberate saving for when i'm about to enter a boss battle or if i'm trying something i'm not sure would work.
