Honour Mode and unstable electricity supply
Hello. I really want to play Honour Mode. In my home electricity turn off suddenly once in month for few minutes. Does it mean that my walkthrough would be lost if that happens while I play the game?

no, it just means that you will lose your progress from the last time you saved.
I'd invest in a UPS in your place as well.

Exactly what BlazeRomulus wrote. Consider investing in a UPS. Blackouts are unhealthy for any PC regardless what you are working with.

There's been reports of people getting their saves corrupted when saving was interrupted so yeah it's a risk without a UPS...

Not sure what happens if the pc switches off instantly, but if you try to exit the game from the task manager then you won't get any achievements, and some other people have already said that if your game crashes that might also disable your achievements but I am not sure about this.

I do know 100% (xD) that if you exit the game from the task manager your achievements will be locked, when you try to do that the game tries to save but fails, I guess that means that the game recognizes that the saving has failed and then proceeds locking your achievements. So I suppose that if you shutdown from the power or your electricity goes off instantly then the game won't have the means to know. If you have any easy achivievement to complete, you can try it out in a new save or something.

I just got soft locked in honour mode so I would definitely back up saves when you can.

It should be fine as long as it doesn't happen while the game is saving. Keep your manual saving to a minimum and rely more on the auto saves and you should be fine.

Is it possible to backup honour mode saves?
