DA Veilguard gives no option to load a game already saved

DA: Veilguard isn't giving me an option to load a saved game.

I've looked for this but either it's not on here or I'm not searching the right words.


I've started the game twice and progressed through a bit saved the game several times but when I exit the game and start up again my only option is to start a new game.

there is not Load Game option.

as I'm playing I've been able to see autosaves and my save, I've even loaded a previous auto save.  But unless I don't let the game go tot he main menu and keep it running I can't go back to where I left off.

    What system do you play on?

    If PC:

    Is there a "Documents\Bioware\Dragon Age The Veilguard\save games" folder on your system?

    Do you use OneDrive?

    My wife is having the same issue on her laptop.
    is there something about STEAM and PC's that it's no putting the saved games in the right location?

    @holger1405 The documents folder series you mentioned is in place. It also says "Onedrive" so is that a concern?

    I did change the file to keep local.  I also transferred the files to the local Documents folder but still not success.

    I'm gong to now turn off EA and see if linking to them is causing the issue.

    If you're using OneDrive, your user profile's Documents folder will be set to the Documents folder inside the OneDrive folder, which means that the system (and the game) will only use the OneDrive/Documents folder, so moving it back won't work.

    I use OneDrive as well and if correctly configured it will work flawless, so there is some mismatch on your system.
    You could try to disable OneDrive (Make a backup of your important files) to force the system back to the original Windows Documents folder.

    If that works you can reconfigure OneDrive.
