I updated today and launched, and the game both won't load my saved games and has erased my saved options (keybinds etc.). Any ideas what's going on and how to fix this?

I did experience the same thing on several of my save files. Roughly half of them no longer work.

Do you have mods enabled or on the saves you are trying to load? That might be the problem.

For me, only the saves marked "cross save" are working. I don't use any mods and I only play on ps5 even though I have the game on pc also...So it's not a mod problem.

You're probably using a debug profile. BG3 will automatically create one and start using it sometimes when something "goes wrong" with your game, like a missing or outdated mod or modsettings file, or when you try to open a second instance of the game while it's already running. Check your larian folder in your %appdata% - you'll have a path like <your name>/AppData/Local/Larian Studios/Baldur's Gate 3/PlayerProfiles. In there should be a "Default" folder with your keybinds/options settings and saved games. If you ALSO have a folder like "Debug_Client_Profile_1" then you're using the debug profile. Just move the Debug_Client_Profile_1 to your desktop or something (don't delete it until you're SURE your saves aren't in it somehow,) make sure all your mods are up-to-date for your game version, and then try relaunching. If your settings are fixed and saves are back, you're done, and you can delete the Debug_Client_Profile_1 that you moved. If the game recreates the Debug_Client_Profile_1 in your appdata folder, then something's wrong with one of the files in your Default profile. At the very least, you should be able to copy the Savegames folder from the Default folder, even if your mods are broken or your settings files corrupted or something. Unfortunately for the other poster, I have no idea if this happens on console or what to do about it in that case.

I am having this same issue on PS5. Prior to this patch I was only seeing the lag issues in Act III. Which was annoying, but at least I could play. Now NONE of my saves will load and a reinstall will not fix it. Larian clearly doesn't care that they're essentially charging $70 for a brick.

Used to be developers had to have a finished, working product before bringing it to market. Now they feel they can just release any half baked turd and "fix" it down the line.

I would be demanding a refund if I thought I would actually get it.

My single player saves still load. My multiplayer saves come up with ce-108255-1 error. I tried multiple fixes with the license restore, offline to online, delete and reinstall. Nothing works. Hoping to hear this issue is being addressed

For me it also crashes on PS5 since Patch 5, also with the newest hotfix. It loads to 75%, then takes some time, jumps to 100% and even starts playing music before it crashes.

Seems to be for all manually saved games, but not for autosaves. Before the patch everything worked fine. Also tried a new campagne, there everything works.

Me too. Im on PS5, near the end of act 3 - just get Gortash netherstone and Elder brain to go, Patch 5 applied - boom! None of my recent saves work - crashes at 100% loading.
I played around a bit and it seems to be any save in Act 3, autosave or manual. HOWEVER - some way through act 3 I went back to Rivington and saved there - that works and I can travel from there to the lower city ok (but I havent played further as I am hoping for a fix for this so I dont have to do all that again. So Act 1 and 2 saves work fine, multiplayer starts ok, one save from Act three that loads into Rivington works but all the other saves in Act three crashes! Please fix! Or should I do the Ansur and House of grief all over again.

OK I seem to have got ALL my saves back working. No idea if this will help everyone but what I did was this: I went back methodically all the way through my saves trying to load them. I tried that Rivington save I mentioned earler and this time it did NOT load. So I was angry. I went back further to a save at Wyrms crossing. That loaded and i then went to the next save after that (that didnt load before) and it worked! so I did the next one - that worked - and I did them all right up to the very latest one. Seems to be the sequential loading from one that works before lower city (perhaps). I did notice that when they loaded Astarion got an award "Charlatan: Woman of her word Astarion is inspired" and 275 XP every time on load - I'm guessing that in act 3 theres some achievement thats new and the old saves dont have it so they crash. Maybe. Anyway I can now load any save up including the latest and get on with the game. Charlatan: Woman of her word Astarion is inspired and 275 XP.
I've successfully created a new save now and can move between all the saves at will.

I cannot load any save games after Patch 5 when I have uninstalled all mods. I uninstalled, because I suspected my mods to cause a different bug.
The game warns me that loading the save without the mods might make the game unstable, but offers me to load anyway. If I choose “Yes” nothing happens. “No” does nothing either. This is true for all saves I used a mod with.

So basically, Larian managed to break their own game once more. Congrats. I'm actually impressed.

Patch 5 broke the game's ability to load any modded save that has had any mods removed. It is... unfortunate. There is a workaround posted on Nexus mods for now. It seems to work for some people: https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/4767?tab=description

I tried the same but I only had saves up to three hours prior and none would load

If everyone here on PS5 was in act 3 maybe it's crashing after a certain point in the story line? I know my multiplayer game was towards the end of act 3, 86 hours deep

Thanks! I will look into this workaround as soon as I can muster up the motivation again for investing more time in fixing bugs than actual gameplay.

Report those bugs. The sooner Larian knows, the sooner they will hopefully fix those bugs.

Hello!

For those of you unable to load saves on PS5, are you getting any error? Or is it always loading until a certain percentage (75, 100, etc) and then crashing?
