I know I'm a bitter old-man....

But beating games in the past used to actually be difficult. On fucking NES YOU NEEDED THAT METROID CODE or you literally wanted to die. Also you had to mitigate other factors such as:

1. dogs and sibling bumping into gaming system, tripping over controller
2. someone was gonna kick you off eventually
3. the game could just randomly fuck up

Yea so often you needed enough time to just beat the game in one sitting. You got mad good at beginning levels and they were still fun.

"more autosave", "lets not even talk about saving anymore....", "games should save more"
FUCK YOU. it just means game devs give you more throw away content.
