My previous PC had an older SSD. I paid a lot of money for a boot only drive (it was 2009 - about $150 for 30GB). Because of the capacity and limited read/write cycles I was forced to use junction to decide where my save files should be stored. It was kind of annoying, but I figured it would be addressed eventually.
It still hasn't been addressed. I love the game, but this isn't okay. This should not be automatically decided - the user needs to be able to direct the location of every file that gets stored on his/her PC. I understand the desire to support multiple users, but the option to control the save locations absolutely needs to be included.
If I have to involve third party programs to store my save files where I want them, something is wrong. Darkgod, your minions beseech you.
Please let us control the location of our save files.

Actually, this was addressed a good while ago 
On windows the launcher has an option for that.
On all OSes you can pass --home <location> to the exe

Any easy way to do this with the Steam version? Us steam folks don't interact with the launcher.

Right click on tome => properties => set launch options => enter:
--home c:\where\ever\you\want
--home c:\where\ever\you\want
