KCD 2 deleted my game saves

[JediIgoPL]

I have 25h in this game, I was in Kuttenberg standing in the gate and tried to save the game by drinking Saviour Schnapps, but instead I saw the initial cutscene. No confirmation window popped up for me, and I'm sure I clicked the right option. I don't have any save files in the game folder. What can I do? I don't want to play 25h again with the same quests and grind.

I thought when you start a new game, another profile is made, old profile with all saves are still in the computer and in cloud, at least this is how it worked in kcd1

Same for me, 75h lost

the game crashed and closed, after that the game deleted the cloud save. I can't believe I lost 80 hours of gameplay.

Far out. Were you using mods?

I thought something like that and have been creating backups for my save games myself from the start.



Solution 1 (before this mishap occurs):

Simply go to the folder:
C:\users\"username"\saved games\kingdomcome2\saves
(create a link so you can access it quickly)
and regularly save the data in a separate folder.
You can also reduce the save files yourself by simply deleting them manually from the folder.


Solution 2 (after it's already too late):

Otherwise there is the Steam website:
https://store.steampowered.com/account/remotestorage

You may still find your old save games there and can download them. For example, I still have save games from February 8th there.



Then you don't need any other things like a self-written program or something like that.

Really seems my save is gone forever, though I love the game enough to restart anyway, but it's a shame that I was left on a cliffhanger for the story's end.

I think the No.1 Issue is people overwrite their saves without realizing it, because, (like me) they probably assumed the game was asking if they want to overite their last save with a new save, like most games do.

New game in the pause menu is a horrible idea by choice, and given if i can't restore my game or find a save that lets me continue close to where i left off? I'm sadly dropping KC2.

Fck. same here. Lost a ton of play. After the barber patch it just restarted from the beginning. I love this game, but this is too much,

What a new game wipes all saves without a confirmation dialogue?

It doesn't. Still don't know how people are managing to overwrite their playthroughs so easily

It's actually pretty easy.

1) Accidentally Click New Game instead of Save.
2) Know that your new save will overwrite the old one, so click YES
3) Popup for starting new game comes up and you realize you clicked the wrong thing and click back. You have not created a single save at this point, you haven't started a new game, but it deleted your old one anyway.

It's just really badly written code.

BG3s Profile system is significantly better. You have to go in and physically delete the profile, there's no option to overwrite it when creating a new game. I don't understand why they even have a set number of profiles you can have, or a set number of saves for that matter. It should just make a new one each time you click new game. This isn't a cloud based game, if I want to fill my SSD with KCD2 profiles and saves, I should be able to.

Then again, their save system is borked anyway. Half the time it loads up and the state isn't close to the same. That guy you were trying to pickpocket is now on the other side of town.

Exactly what happened to me, at the end of Act 2. I'd completed every side quest in Act 2 before doing the main one, and oops, all gone. Something like 140 hours.

Thankfully it was my second time through Act 2. I missed my chance to romance Rosa, so I went back and restarted just that act. I feel for the people that never even got to see the end, that sucks.
