Yep. You transitioned into Act2. By doing so, you lose all your act1 WP and also all unfinished quests are gone forever.

Not a big fan of this; it really makes you think about whether or not you've done EVERYTHING before willing to never get a chance to do it again ... on that playthrough at least. A good way to make people play again if there's something they missed that they really want.

Headsup, Act 2 goes by faster than act 1, and you won't have the act 2 waypoints. Do all you can before moving on to act 3!

if only the game would warn you, maybe with a popup that you actually have to click on...

im not saying there wasn't a warning per se.... it's more of an 'instructions unclear' type of warning really...

like the mountain pass warning... entering shadowfell gave a warning but much less in it's tone.

This was only an annoyance for me as due to........things I was dumb enough to let happen I only had access to a single merchant to sell all my milk cans to xD

I felt like it was an equally clear kind of "finish other quests first or you might lose them"

Especially since I think it updates a ton of them to mention you missed out

This, and when it's stated forever, it means it.

Those quests are hard locked to your PC, so you can't even start a new game and get them back. You have to buy a second copy of the game.

Press X to doubt.

My issue with the popups are that they are a bit inconsistent, or slightly unclear. What I mean is that there is also a pop-up when moving into the mountain pass, and yet that's not a change of acts and doesn't lock you out of going back to the previous area or underdark. So if that's your first experience with the warning pop-up, it's easy to imagine just ignoring the next warnings.

It also clears the quest log with a dozen "ya blew it" updates immediately after you enter. What more do you want? Do you want a Larian dev to personally drive to your house, ring the doorbell and scream it at you? Do you want someone to immediately cast Wish and nuke you into oblivion for not reading the very specific "HEY THIS MIGHT BE A BAD IDEA PAY ATTENTION WEE WOO WEE WOO" popup. It's not an EULA. It's like 2 lines that ask you not to mindlessly click though without considering what you are doing first.

It doesn't lock you out, but it does fail some quests you might have going on - some big quests

Wrong, you can still use act 1 WPs in act 2 as long you don't do the Nightsong quest as that's the point where you can't.
