Rook's Face Changes when loading a save

When loading into a save I created instead of one of the saves the game generates on it own (auto save, temporary decision saves, etc.), my rook's face will change to one of the default presets and they become bald.

If I go to the Mirror of Transformation, their face returns to the custom face I made at the start of the game, but I have to go into edit, change nothing, and finalize again for it to save Rook's face when I exit the mirror.

If I load into a temporary decision/chapter save, my face is fine, If I use an auto save most of the time it's fine, though I have had my face reset by some of the auto-saves.

For some reason, I have not had this issue while loading saves made in the Arlathan Forest. Yet.

For reference, I am playing on pretty much the minimum requirements of the game:  HDD, GTX 1660 super graphics card, 32 GB RAM, I can't remember what my CPU is but I can add it later after looking it up. I know when I compared it to the minimum requirements CPU before Veilguard launched, it preformed comparably.

  • You can have more than 1 Character did you choose the right one first?

      Its a genuine bug because people have been reporting this since the game first released. For me I only have ever made 1 Rook and I still get this bug. 

  • Same issue. I customized my Rook from one of the presets - completely different now. 

    But when I load a saved game, Rook is the preset I chose when I was customzing.

    Then if I go to the mirror, my customized Rook is there so I just select it and leave.

    This needs to be fixed. It happens about 3 times out of 10.

    Either that or my hair has disappeared, or when going into the inventory menu to change items on my character, its a bald old man, where my character is a female with hair and a young complexion. i have tried new loads restarting my computer etc. i know its not my specs on my computer either.

    The only time it doesn't happen is if I start the game again and literally play the game without reloading at all, just continuously playing through, which is not ideal at all.

  • Same here. It's not every time and reloading the same save will fix it for me but very weird when it does happen. 

  • Im so glad I’m not the only one who is experiencing this issue! But it still frustrating! Every time I die and have to restart from last save or wanna reload because I missed something I get the preset default. It’s been happening for me since the end with the lyrium ghoul and I yet to find a fix yet to it. 
    can you even submit a ticket about this ? If so where ?
