This is a fantastic remake of a trilogy I never played. I was having a ton of fun with it, until, about 30 hours in (after completing 100% of the first two games and half of the 3rd), all of my saved progress was inexplicably wiped. No warning, no hope of recovery, nothing. Reading forums online it became clear that this is quite a common issue that the developers haven't bothered addressing.

Now the mere thought of going back to this game just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. So you, too, can have a bad taste in your mouth if you like. Or maybe you just like playing Russian Roulette. If so, this game is for you.

I hate to be that guy who downvotes an otherwise otherwise great game because of a technical issue, but losing 30 hours of gameplay is one hell of a sucker punch to the gut. I mean, I had fun playing it, so it's not an entire waste, but I'm not going to trust this game with my time again.

This scares me a bit. Sorry that this happened.

@Classic Wood - Unfortunately it seems so from various reddit comments and other forums. Some have speculated that it's caused by a flawed DRM implementation, triggered by disconnecting from the internet while ingame, but no one knows for sure, and my internet is pretty solid.

@Classic Wood Apparently it is, as the OP states that it is a common problem since many people have talked about it on Reddit.

That really really sucks, I have had that happen to me before. Do you know if this is a common thing?

Damn that sucks. gonna have to back up my save once in a while if I buy this.

@AriiMe Because the game itself wiped my save, it immediately synced to the cloud after I quit the game, wiping that too (of course I didn't realise all this until afterwards, unfortunately). And Steam doesn't keep backups of cloud saves, I checked.
