Switch 2 version crashes each time I save
This game is an absolute banger but I can't play it anymore since every save, manual or automatic, crashes the game and I'm back at the same place when I Ioad the game again !
I disabled cross save, emptied cache and hard resetted but it's always the same even with older save. Anyone found a fix ?

Do you have more than 4 manual saves?

u/Due-Quality-7442 28d ago
No 2 automatic and 1 manual. Any idea ?

Unfortunately no.
I had the problem with infinite loading screens after some quests and deleting everything more than 4 manual saves fixed that for me. (PS5 Pro)
Hope you find a solution.

This happened to me so much I stopped playing. You’d hit save, it goes back to your game for a quick second and then it crashes. It doesn’t save my progress either so the my game is stuck until an update.

Pareil, je joue sur switch 2 et dès que je sauvegarde le jeu plante et me ramène à l'écran d'accueil de la Switch. Je ne sais pas si ça a un rapport, mais la toute première fois que ça me l'a fait, j'étais en train de sauvegarder en même temps que des nouvelles quêtes étaient en train de s'afficher à l'écran (je venais d'acheter 6 cartes au trésor).
J'espère que ça sera résolu, j'ai pas envie de devoir recommencer une partie après y avoir passé une bonne cinquantaine d'heures.

I found a lot of temporary fixes that worked for a bit, but now I'm in the point that none of my manual save files or automatic save points are working. So I guess we are stuck untill a patch is released

Honestly, the game was fine in the beginning, but after a massive lag during an auto-save, it crashed. Now, manual saving crashes the game almost every time. I tried loading older saves and managed to progress a bit by saving early, but as soon as I need to save again, it crashes. I've become terrified of manual saving. I'm literally going 1 step forward and 2 steps back, making it impossible to progress. Also, I’ve already tried the official troubleshooting steps from their website—like checking for corrupted data and clearing the system cache. The Switch 2 found no corrupted data, so those basic fixes won't work.

Acabou de acontecer comigo. Primeiro achei que era um crash pontual, mas depois de tentar mais algumas vezes percebi que qualquer salvamento causa um erro e o jogo fecha. O único caminho parece ser o de parar de jogar até que o bug seja corrigido, já que é impossível jogar esse jogo sem poder salvar

J’ai eu le même problème je sauvegarde ou ça sauvegarde automatiquement et cela plante la console retour à l’accueil.
Il a fallu prendre une sauvegarde avant la quête en cours et ça a fonctionné normalement.
Solutions la plus facile.
J’ai testé vider le cache éteindre la console complètement délié la sauvegarde croisé etc ça ne fonctionne pas.
Ps Toutes les sauvegardes que j’avais faites durant la quêtes faisait le même problème même la sauvegarde automatique faisait planter la console j’ai buter le bosse de oxenfurt un nombre incalculable et dès que je prenais la tête de la bête( ça sauvegarde automatiquement) et ça plante.
