I remember the saving crystals in Tomb raider 3 (playstation), which were at random points in the levels. Dying shortly before the next and having to do it all over again belongs to the most frustrating parts I ever played.
Yeah I really like stuff like that too, preferably in shape of a nice journal where I can see what I gotta do next and where to go for it.
2) Every time I load a save in Dragon Age, it reminds you where you are in the story by telling you what is going on and what you were likely in the process of doing. I've lost interest in revisiting saves in other games before, because when I pick up where I last left off I have no clue what the Hell I was working on or where I should be heading next.

That can certainly be frustrating, especially in a game with a lot of backtracking. *NM*

a lot of the gamer-angst about the new WoW expansion is based on this.

Little things like that can make a big difference - in atmosphere, too, not just game mechanics.
