Saving multiple saves/ Cloud
No Cloud support really hurts this game. However, the save system is god awful. Even if you have manual save, if you make a new kid to play a different class. IT OVERWRITTES EVERYTHING. Yes I'm warning you. So, to fix this mess grab a folder on your desktop or a Usb drive. GO to C:\Users\*Windows Username*\Documents\my games\South Park - The Stick of Truth\save and copy all files to the new folder or USB. All of my friends have done this to one another on my laptop. While my charater is sittng on my desktop at home

This is a huge flaw for an RPG, how could they miss this? There is a hard save option ....why its pointless like this,lol. NO multiple characters to try at once and NO letting others play on your PC when your at work.....was this greed?

no problem did it work
I experienced the same, after trying a second game from the start, and when saving i pressed one of the unused save slots, in order to create the new save. Which ended up in my old saves being deleted. *sobs

However, the reason the game only says it will overwrite your auto save checkpoints when creating a new game, and not state that all previous manual saves will be deleted, is because it IS possible to keep your old save games!

When you save your game, dont click on one of the empty unused save slots, but go to the top, and press "Create new save game", this will create a manual save, AND keep your old saves!

currently have two different games i am able to load in same folder, so i am very much pleased to know, that i now can have multiple save games, without having to save games in another folder.

Hopes this help you others out :)

Unfortunately, I noticed this a little too late. Any idea on how to restore a previous save if there is such a way?

Since it seems like it overwrites the save file in this case, i see no way you can undo the saving progress, and return to your old save. After all, you have overwritten the data with new data.
So i dont believe you can restore your old save in these cases :)

My ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥ excuse for a brother decided to play this game, and this happened. I had 5 hours on the game (and the first two hours are really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ tedious.) Now I'm left with a game I bought two days ago that I have zero motivation to play because of my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ brother
