#Game won't load

My 200+ hour multiplayer save file tries and fails to load, going back to the title screen. This happens every single time I load the game, the same way. I am able to create a new mp save file and it loads without issue. I play on steam deck and previously had someone on PS5 who would join in. Game version v1.2b-1245

Took a video (divided in 2 parts) on my steam deck:

Hello @vale lynx

Sorry you’re running into that. Could you try verifying your game files on your Steam Deck and see if that helps?

Also, does this happen every time you load that save, or does it also happen in single player mode?

Let us know what you find! We’ll help you figure it outgoatlove2

I did try both verifying the files on steam deck and uninstalling and re-installing the game with no change.

I only had the one save file but I did create both a single player and a multiplayer test save and both worked fine.

I was playing often until about mid-January without major issues. Took a break and tried playing again about 4 days ago which is when the problem started. I only rarely would have a game crash while playing before. Nothing in particular seemed to trigger it.

Yes, it always sends me back to the title screen, never the deck home screen.

It happens immediately when loading the save in coop as the host, so it never gets to a point of a guest having the option to find the game

I was wearing the dress since the other person I was playing with got married in game (maybe a week or two in game weeks prior). I was not married in game.

Unfortunately my laptop cannot handle loading the game at all.

So I did try installing the game on my laptop and while it was extremely laggy, it did open and I was able to sleep through several days. I couldn't leave my house because of lag but my husband was able to join and was in a cutscene of having a baby with Eva when he was disconnected. I decided to quit and try it again on my steam deck. It no longer brings me back to the loading screen but just tries to load forever. When trying to load on my computer it no longer opens either.

The loading screen continues forever until I force quit on both laptop and steam deck
