Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - Enhanced Edition Save times on PS4

Just started this game on PS4 and I'm really enjoying it! Except for one thing: The slow save times.

When I quicksave, I get the save icon in the bottom right corner of the screen. It stays there for about 10 - 12 seconds and then I get a big centered message stating the save was succesful. Why does it take this long? I can play on during that time, but it seems odd to me.

If it can't be changed/fixed, at least move the big success message to the bottom right corner and make it smaller!

I've recorded a small video to showcase this:

You should probably just stop playing now. The PS4 has game ending bugs that will completely ruin the game for you around level 15. Larian has been telling us for MONTHS that they are fixing this. I have been unable to play the PS4 version for two months now.

The potential bug (related to trying to destroy troll droppings) in Luculla Forest will be fixed in the next update, which is currently going through the submission process with Sony.

But the really slow save times are 'normal' ? It is really breaking my game immersion when I quicksave, go on to do stuff, have a conversation and suddenly, after 12 seonds or so, have a giant popup on top of everything saying that the save was succesful. I'd already forgotten that I saved!

I would get that checked with a doctor to see if you have any serious conditions such as sleep apnea or narcolepst if you forget what you did 15 seconds ago.

In all seriousness, I should point out that when you quick save you do not have to wait for it to finish. When it finishes the save, you will load at the exact same spot you started the save.

This means you can quick save before a battle starts, and while it is saving you can start the battle. If you lost, when you load it will be at the same spot, before the battle.
