All of my items and gold keep disappearing from my inventory

[D3adey3 Gamer]

All of my items except for the steel sword i get at the start of the game and the starter armor chest piece keep vanishing from my inventory and even most of my gold keeps getting lost when i try to load into a save. This is causing the game to be much more difficult and more unrewarding to play every time it happens. I've restarted the game 3 or 4 different times now hoping it wouldn't happen in a new save but it never fails to happen with each new save. I would try to get a refund but this is a new issue that I've only started having recently and i'm at 50 hours of total game play. Anyone have any idea how I could get this problem fixed?

Are you automatically making potions? Sometimes it takes ingredients you might not have realized are necessary. Concerning the gold, I found this online:

"Some one said earlier never go have more than 60k on you at a time. The game had a sort of cap at 65,500 or some odd number like that. Just stay below 60k and you won't lose any.

Let's say you have 75k. You die.

You had 15k over the "cap". You keep the 15k and the game takes the 60+k.

Let's say you have 67k, you die. You keep 2k game takes the 60k.

That's how it works, and yes it sucks."

I don't know that's a fact though, because it's never happened to me.

I don't think I'm automatically making any potions, but its not just ingredients that are vanishing for instance I just got the silver sword last time i played and when I logged back on it was gone along with everything else except got my steel sword and the dice box. As for the gold I didn't even make it past 5000 gold and when I logged back on I was back down to a little over 460. The game is literally taking everything away except for the steel sword, the chest armor, the dice box and a few random potions I had made prior to getting off. I had more than just the ingredients too it took food/drinks, books/scrolls, weapons, quest items, and anything else that wasn't the few items that i listed that they didn't take. I also just noticed it took away my igni sign which I found in those ruins in chapter 1.

Dude I'm gonna go for a long shot of a guess here, but probably the game is loading a previous save file, because you have steam cloud sync activated.
This game for whatever reason, has saves with 20 MB average size, which means if you save next to 50 times, your save folder will have 1 GB size and so on, which means that you completely fill your maximum storage of save files, in the steam cloud available for this game. And as such, maybe, the game resets some, or all of your local saves with the ones in the steam cloud, everytime you start the game.

Yeah I'll try turning steam cloud sync off and see if that works. I've definitely saved way over 50 times on it by now and I don't know if it clears off any of the saves I delete in game off of my saves folder.

I always delete previous saves and leave only a single save file
