game is no longer auto saving

I started playing and the game produced auto saves as expected. Then I created a save at the end of my first session. Now the game no longer auto saves. Not in fixed intervals, not after missions, not after chapters and since I'm no longer used to compulsively save every few steps, I have lost quite a bit of progress.
The game is running on win 11

    I have this same issue. Even though the autosave icon shows up often, when the game crashed my only options to continue were the last manual save I made hours ago and one slightly more recent temporary chapter save that changed my character's face and hair. This is really frustrating. I lost a lot of progress and don't particularly want to redo it all. 

    Re: not being able to delete saves, I haven't tried that however I'm not able to overwrite saves. It just saves another file with the same name. Maybe it's the same issue.

    I want to amend to this(and for me autosaves stopped after entering D'meta):

    1. DO NOT deactivate steam synch and reactivate, it will just blindly overwrite any saves you have local with what is in steam, aka you will lose any progress compared to whats saved in steam cloud.
    2. it seems no matter how you manually save during certain passages, they always start from their beginning again.

    So unless you finish them in one go, or you die during, you will always start from the complete beginning of it again.

    Could any of you confirm its fixed by turning Bloom back on in the config files?
    Thats what fixed it for me today...

    Also having the same issue. No autosave even though icon shows and cannot overwrite/delete saves. Turning bloom back on or turning off cloud save hasn't worked for me. 

  • Having the same issue, and my game is no longer allowing me to delete or overwrite my saves either! Keep losing progress and my save slots are rapidly filling up, it's a pretty serious issue...
