Also on PS5. For me, every time I load into a save, it turns on all the guidance quests and the overlay, and resets all the settings such as sound levels, camera controls, UI sizing, and network stuff to default values. The first time, I thought it was just because of the update, so I reset everything to the way I like it, saved my game, and went to eat dinner. Loaded back in after dinner, and all those settings had been reset to default again. New save, old save, doesn’t matter. Every time I load into the game, the only settings that remain as I set them are the ones that are expansion specific (npc voting and so on). They are reset before I even load a save.
The is taking forever to load now too, and I also get a message upon finally getting to the main screen saying I’m not network connected, and the pretty background for the next expansion behind my sim family is also gone. So something has gone seriously wrong with this update.
