Nooooo! Is it just local saves or cloud saves too? Seems to be both? The one good thing was that it was only the 2 new saves I tried to make today + today's autosaves. My older saves seem okay. I always save a lot, so hopefully once this is patched, I should be able to pick up not far from where I left off. I just don't want to risk any more saves being corrupted or playing and not being able to create new saves, so I will wait for the patch. I had an issue where it came up and said data corrupted but it was for just one save but I kept playing and at some stage over wrote the corrupted save with no dramas.

Damn, Eivor is a tank in this gear. I don't see how throwing a cloak over this is any kind of "disguise". Okay, "Aelfred the Great" wasn't quite what I expected. Finally spent some time with our huntress... What gear is it Hrungr? Damn the huntress is cute may have to prioritise the hunters hut!!!!! So on the fence re romancing Randvi after all the discussions and was going to romance the baker but .... Eivor is unsure now. Can you have a fling with the huntress, baker etc or are you locked in?

Funnies. I was brought up short when I saw the floating book. It's either not suppose to be there or an invisible NPC is holding it. Presently in Suthsexe and sailed along the coast, raiding monasteries. I dropped off on land after turning into a small river. A soldier rode past on his horse, into the water, past the longboat. What's amazing is his horse was underwater. Have had so many of those weird floating artifacts etc. Is a pain when you need the oil jars for a quest but they are attached to the ceiling instead of on the floor????? In Asgard I found The Builder just treading water in a river nowhere near where he should have been as I was paddling a boat to an island????

Anyone else here turn down Randvi? I mean fully turn down, not just "Now's not the time" that apparently leaves it as an option. I did. I'm curious to see what differences there might be later since everyone seems to be romancing her in the videos. I did. Hooking up with Randvi is one of those decisions likely to haunt you later... Not sure, probably wrong but it almost seems like you are being prompted to romance her. I intended to but am having second thoughts but probably still will but I am waiting for her to leave Sigurd if the game lets me.

You get locked-in with one at some point, but you can break-up with them and get with someone else (can't get back with someone you broke-up with).

I switched a bit my setup. Instead of a tiny axe + shield, I'm now using a big axe (Sepulture) + shield. It made short work of the Beast of the Hill legendary beast and a Zealot around my level. I did. Hooking up with Randvi is one of those decisions likely to haunt you later... You are supposed to betray the dude you know... Is using the big axe with a shield an ability or can you just do it? I have been duel wielding all game and enjoying it but was thinking of using a shield and axe.

At the rate things are going, I can see it happening. He believed what he is but he's also bitter and angry because he cannot be what he wants to be. He blames Eivor. No matter what he said, he resented her "failure". It'll fester and I believe he will blow up at Eivor and Randvi. He speaks of Randvi with disparagement. I was shocked to hear it; you got a stick up your bludy ass man. You don't know a good thing when you see it, you idiot. You're so full of yourself.

The thing I like about the map ui is it gives sounds about the area; like a Monastery will have church music. That's about all to like about it I think, for me on PC it just does weird zoom in out things goes off centre when you zoom back out. You can't zoom in enough to really focus on things like your settlement, markers disappear sometimes I think it is terrible to be honest. The sound thing is probably the only redeeming feature of it. I'm not on pc so....

I ran into the worst bug yet. My saves got corrupted! I am stopping playing for now until they patch this. I have this literally since my first hour with the game. Sometimes it fixes itself or loads the save anyway. Sometimes it doesn't, but there is always a working autosave or quick save.

I am using a heavy axe and a shield, both of which have a chance to ignite my weapon. The game lights even you up if you are just slightly near a flame. I like Eivor fighting while on fire. I have a decent fire resistance and can ignore the effect. It was awesome when Ivarr did the same.

So the last two days have been spent in Asgard and while i enjoyed the overall story which is a Norse Story I have read the overall gameplay was a bit tiresome and grindy TBH. It needed to be shorter I think, just the story would have been good without all the collecting Tears of Ymir and the mysteries. Can someone tell me why Odin would go out of his way to rescue a drunken guy and row him back to the beach to go stop his wifes relatives stealing his shit and why is that a "Mystery"????? Coming back to the main story I felt completely disconnected and overwhelmed with what to do. Anyway going the usual route of clearing an area and moving on for at least probably the first few areas as I haven't even cleared the starting areas of Ledestershire or Grandesbridge or whatever they are. I keep seeing those shiny gold icons but will attempt to resist there lure for the moment. Have raided everything within my power level and slightly above which is disappointing as i think the raids are my favourite part and I need the "Raw materials" to continue building the settlement. Anyway some pics of my time in Asgard The Builder The Builder randomly treading water somewhere he shouldn't have been The management group having a chat Freya really wasn't animated very well something about the eyes and why does Thor look like Blackwall???? Scenery

Question for those of you playing. I currently have all the uplay/connect overlays and notifications turned off in settings. Yet I still get those annoying large pop ups ingame when I complete an achievement. Any ideas how to get those to go away?

^ I just pick a region on the operations table and focused on it. It's not necessary to rush into the region main quest, there's no timer. I'll usually clear up the mystery, artifact, gold and syn points along the path to the region story; it's either a straight line or zig zags. Since I've the cartographer, I'll buy the gear and ingot locations of the region I'm going from him. I'm on Essex right now but I've decided I'll do some of the opal merchant's quests. I just got a tungsten ingot as a reward. I also killed a couple of the identified order members and received a couple of runes. Completing those led to a conversation with Hytham which gives a travel to Vinland. Nice. At present, I've yet to complete Norway so I'll be doing that after completing Essex.

I did the thing with Randvi and didn't like that the tone was flirty right from the beginning and that she kisses Eivor before you get a chance to turn her down Which I did. Does she still rudely leave Eivor in the tower if you accept her proposition? I then went fishing with the baker, and I assume the quest bugged out because Eivor didn't get a fishing pole despite thanking the baker for loaning one. I tried three times.

After all this time, I just found my first Animus anomaly. It was an unpleasant reminder that I'm really playing Layla and not Eivor, but otherwise it was fine. I only got a brief flash of some sort of memory as a reward for solving the puzzle, though.

I've seen someone who wrote a blog complaining the game doesn't show how brutal Vikings were. I suspect the guy didn't play the game long enough to get the entire "Saga of Ivarr the Boneless". Eivor might not be a psychopath that murder innocents left and rights, but the Raven-bearer still just lift a tiny eyebrow when Ivarr does his things. And I got another area pledge to the Raven's clan. Next: London...Lunden...or I might take some time off with Randvi. Oh and I just saw that the farms I built, they have upgrades that cost even more raw materials...

Damn, Eivor is a tank in this gear. I don't see how throwing a cloak over this is any kind of "disguise". Okay, "Aelfred the Great" wasn't quite what I expected. Finally spent some time with our huntress... What gear is it Hrungr ? Damn the huntress is cute may have to prioritise the hunters hut!!!!! So on the fence re romancing Randvi after all the discussions and was going to romance the baker but .... Eivor is unsure now. Can you have a fling with the huntress, baker etc or are you locked in? It is mostly Thor's gear w/ the Berserker cloak. I have a pair of Mythic bracers, but I'm not using them right now. I don't know if you can romance both the huntress and the baker, but I did notice there was a romance option for another NPC in Lunden.
