First it was "Login Blocked" now it won't even load.
Like most players who played this game for more than 2k hours. We still have glimmers of hope that AGS would fix these game-breaking bugs after each patch.

After 20 levels since I re-downloaded yesterday, today I got a constant "Login Blocked: Suspicious Activity or Corrupted Install Detected". For an hour I tried Verifying, Restarting, Re-installing- and it persisted.

Then I tried deleting the temp files folder in the AppData folder (an old fix to a freezing title screen). Now the game won't load after selecting my character.

Also getting constant "Packet loss" and "connection" icons in-game since re-install.

AGS has completely abandoned PC players.

Having this issue as well

I am seeing the same behavior. It started about an hour ago for me. Server configuration, player saturation, DOS, all guesses. But it's not on the client side as the game checks out.

First day ran fine.
Now permanent issue, no matter if I play via Geforce Now or Steam Deck. Permanent logout after 1-2 minutes in game, back to Character screen.
Annoying

I keep getting "Connection Failed. Your client could not be authenticated. Please try again soon." And on the Select Character area it says "Connection Error. Login service isn't available at this moment. This may indicate trouble connecting to the internet. Reconnecting, please wait..." But my PC is always connected to the internet. Looks like im not playing and going back to WoW & Throne and Liberty.

Same here Steam Deck users looks like it’s a widespread issue. Will give the devs time before I hit the refund button

i haven't played in ages.. started this up yesterday. Kept falling through the world.. then would kick me.. then verified files. then started up. Same thing. Then reinstalled to new location figuring corrupted drive. Same thing. This morning logged in same thing but then got kicked for the same as above. Suspicious Login - Blocked - or corrupt install. This is ridicoulouse.

Same here.
I played the first few hours without any problems.
I left and when I came back later I was never able to play again.
Ten minutes of loading to choose a character, which sometimes appears and sometimes doesn't. Ten more minutes of loading after hitting "Play" to see my character appear in an empty space floating on water... wtf?
