This happened to me with Starfield a 38 hour save file gone and the only one left was from 17 hours in. It made me quit the game and I've not been back to it since.
They managed to fleece enough people out of £40 then it seems, I mean I know people can refund via Steam but I guess some of them may not have and this has provided them something to cut and run with.
I've got about 6.5k at the moment and I've mostly used it to top up my game pass ultimate, but these points nerfs have now made it tough going of late.
I don't miss it really, I thought I would have but I guess there are enough games on game pass to keep me busy anyway. I think for people on Game Pass Core they get a good list of first party games to play with all of us too.
I've vacuumed my console two or three times in the past 3 years and it's definitely helped, it's never looked as horrible as that one in the article however.
Even despite having the red ring of death the Xbox 360 era is still the best of the bunch, it should have been easier to make one of the newer eras better but sadly the damage done at the start of the Xbox One generation was simply massive.
I'm very much looking forward to playing this and I will get it, however I do have a lot of other games on the go at the moment that I would like to finish first so as not to distract from this wonderful game.
@InterceptorAlpha I've got 2FA enabled on my account too and like you I see various attempts on my account every 15 mins, most recently it's a lot of people in Brazil trying it seems.
I've completed it when it came out at about 25 hours and I think I'll go back to it to run it on another character. The frustrating thing is there is no matchmaking even still with the co-op, as I'd like to get the co op achievements
