I just loaded up my game an found out that an entire afternoon's worth of progress is gone. My character, previously level 20 or 21 - I'm not 100% sure - is now back to level 16, and has to go through a lot of questing and exploration (and unlocking Sher'tul) all over again. Weirdly, the charater vault lists him as level 19: http://te4.org/characters/28268/tome/1d ... 1b9bc62d90.
I'm not sure I can stomach going back to playing the game if there's a risk my characters can inexplicably devolve from level 50 back to 5 in a moment's notice. Sadface!

Did you crash/something?
or perhaps it's steam cloud saves that messed it. Without more details I can't do much :/
For safety you could try disabling steam cloud saves in the options

I don't recall doing anything out of the ordinary or the game crashing , I just exited it as usual. I will try disabling Steam Cloud saving for now and keep my fingers crossed it won't happen again. I'll let you know if I run into any more trouble. Thanks for your reply!

Had the same thing happen, nothing was out of the ordinary except losing hours of progress. Disabling steam cloud I guess!

Okay, so beyond lost playtime the save also seems to be broken. Several key abilties are now listed as unavailable and can't be used. Looks like I will have to start over...

Hum ?
Oozewalk is only usable if you are stadnding on mucus, are you ?
Reabsorb is only usable if you have a bloated ooze, do you ?
Oozebeam needs two mindstars & the psiblades turned on, do you have them?
If you are sure you meet those conditions yes then somethign is funny, in which case zip up the savefile and post it somewhere please

Re: (1.1.1. - Steam version) Game reverted to old save?
Duh, you're right, of course. 
However, the reason why this didn't occur to me was that I had mindstars equipped for the whole game - only now they're gone. They're not even in my inventory. Which is not quite as bad as the talents not working, but still weird.
Oh, nevermind, I'm just going to start a new game, I don't want to risk the game going sideways in 20 more hours because the save is borked. I've had a hankering to try my hand on a wyrmic anyways.
If you want the save file for bug-hunting, I can post it here, though.
