I don't do much PC gaming, and I generally buy on GOG so I don't have to deal with these screwy launcher spy apps running on my computer for DRM. Well, I wanted to check out Hades so I installed Steam again and bought/downloaded it. This morning for the second time it's screwed up my save files.
I played Thursday night for a bit, 3 escape attempts I think. When I was done and exited I went through the main menu and saw it had the new save data there as the number of attempts was correct. Totally exited game, haven't touched Steam or anything since, I had totally rebooted into Linux partition even.
Today, I decide to play some more, and my data is back to as if I never played Thursday. I dug around some in the folders and found the save files and they are from Jan 2. WTF?! I am at a loss. They aren't corrupted, missing, or anything of the sort--they are just straight up different.
Any of you had something like that happen?
This Reddit post says that different accounts on the same computer can overwrite each others' cloud saves. If you've tried playing the game in both Windows and Linux, that would presumably cause the same problem.
