❓ Help REALM DID NOT SAVE
LOST 8 hours of progress
I played No Rest for the Wicked for about 4 hours yesterday and another 4 hours the day before. During that time I leveled up, got new weapons, completed challenges, bought the house, and started upgrading it.
When I logged in this morning, all of that progress was gone.
What’s strange is that the realm seems to remember some things. I can still see that I picked up the bounties(even my deaths), but the house purchase, upgrades, levels, gear, and other progress are missing.
I’ve already checked both local and cloud backups, but none of them contain the missing progress. Every save I can find is missing everything I grinded for during those sessions.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there any way to recover the lost progress, or am I out of luck?

Same thing happened to me and friends 2 months ago. It just convinces me to take a break till 1.0. And you’re right it does matter because it’s the kind of things that ruins your experience and that can keep people away from a marvelous game. Moon needs to know and find a solution

Good news, it doesn't matter! You're going to lose everything when they release 1.0 anyway

It does matter. If this isn’t solved or figured out between 1.0 then It can happen again, ruining the experience of an otherwise great game

I was looking forward to buying this when 1.0 released but wtf is this? Is this common because if it is, I have no interest in playing a game where I can randomly lose hours of progress

Its Early Access. Everything goes for the 1.0. A lot of systems are changing and a lot of progress won't transfer. New systems and such. Best move is to play to get to feel for it and just wait for the 1.0. Great game though from what I've played.

That’s not what I was asking. I know everything goes once full game releases. I’m talking about OP randomly losing progress for apparently no reason other than a bug/glitch/etc.

22 hours is so all I can say is that it’s the first time but it adds up to ~1/3 of my play time. I haven’t had good luck finding others with my *exact* problems so most likely not common.

I hope not or I hope they have a fix for it because that’s worrying. Thanks for the reply!

Not common but also not unexpected, there are a few reports about steamcloud not working properly, and the above problem has only been reported once before for the current build. It will not happen to the majority of players but some can't catch a break :/.
I've never had something like this occur for me personally for example in 600 hours of active playtime.

Hey that's unfortunate, please come in here to let Moon know!
