#Wanting to modify my save.
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
If you're playing on Steam, the game automatically makes backups of your save every ~30 minutes; you can reload a backup to before the last Weaver encounter, finish up with all the rot stuff, and then reencounter the Weaver to continue with that
(This is precisely how things went on my own Watcher 1.5 playthrough
)

Hi there!
I was seemingly having weirdly terrible RNG ||spreading the rot|| to the final region. Apparently it’s due to the final ||Weaver upgrade|| that I just found. This seems to lock me out of one of the endings that I was working towards. Is there a way to modify my save so I can meet the conditions for that ending again?
I’ll see if I can try that. Probably take some digging since it’s been more than a few hours. Wish I could just do this in dev tools.
Sorry about that. I think a mod may have fixed that for you?
ya one of the felpers reposted the title
cant wait to be able to do that too
you can just reload a backup in settings, its really simple!
there should be a "backups" button under the save slots
Yeah there's no funny gamefile business needed to load backups, it's got an easy ingame menu
Got the ending. Thank you everyone!
A bit diabolical that an achievement was locked behind that ending. Way too easy to miss!
...Is it?
It's an ending to the game, you kinda deserve an achievement for putting in all that effort 
I’ve been playing Watcher for 30ish hours now. I feel like it’s a little unfair to make achievement hunters replay all that for one achievement.
Or two if that monument in Daemon requires that ending.
I mean, if you know what to do, it's probably not that hard 
Sure you have to replay through the campaign to get that far, but that's more Rain Worlding
But I don't think it's any more egregious than the two hardest Downpour achievements
I can see experienced players cutting it down to 10 or less, but I feel like it’s still a bit much. I can’t recall anything else like that in Downpour or Base game.
Being locked out of an achievement without restarting I mean.
That is fair
....Though I can think of one instance in Downpour, actually, where that might be the case-
Ima check real quick
Artificer?
Oh, nevermind 
Guessing you’re talking about Artificer ascension, but that campaign wasn’t for me so I don’t know.
I was, but also it's not a unique achievement 
It’s still unique content.
I DID, however, remember one pair of achievements that are impossible to get on the same save file 
Betting it’s something with Moon.
I can see Stolen Enlightenment locking you out of some stuff.
||Stolen Enlightenment|| and ||A New Friend||, yes
Ah
Physically impossible to get on the same save of a campaign without loading a backup or anything 
I don't believe you can get it in Hunter
Thats really unappreciative of her.
The speedruns for this ending are like an hour 
Why does Cold Storage have a fake shelter?!
What are these things? There’s some edible mold mixed in too.
Are they maybe dead sea snails?
Thought something else was being set up so I was caught a little off guard.
Going from asking about mold to the ending is kinda crazy
I mean that ending came out of nowhere.
That is true…
I think my Mark of Communication may be bugged. I still can’t understand the pearls!
What pearl did you try to read? 
NEVERMIND!
Got one talking about Star Energies
Another talked about Bell of Gesture. Kind of annoying how little dialogue I got with all these pearls.
Yeah 😔
