Cloud saves ate my local saves
I'm still having unresolved issues. I wanted to go back on a save the other night, accidentally hit 'Restore last local saved game' and then all my local saves got completely deleted with zero of them remaining. I luckily got my ME1 gameplay back just fine, but I want to try and get my ME2 gameplay back and the ME3 gameplay, that I was in the middle of back too. I finished way too many hours for them to just disappear like that. Also, if it helps, they were primarily from Steam as well, not Origin, also tried some file recovering apps and tried speaking to help desk. Thank you!
You can of course try, but this saves are in a unique file format, so it is very unlikely that a file recovery program could put them back into a working order.
The only thing you can do to prevent such problems is to make a real, automated, back up of your save files.
The cloud is a convenience system, completely inadequate for a backup solution.
