You don't know unless you try though. *shrugs* My saves could have been corrupted by the patch. (They weren't, it's obvious now). No harm in trying the backup. However, my gripe was to all the people responding to the people who were reporting crashes "should have backed it up". Well. Assuming the patch corrupted the saves was pretty logical, but I've been trying to get the point across that this isn't what happened. Not this time, therefor "should have backed it up" is a most unhelpful statement and in this particular case would have not made a lick of difference.

Yes, I backed up my saves, then loaded the save I wanted to play, I didn't make a new one. Fortunately I've had no issues so far.
