This is a story filled with sadness, loneliness and heartache, if you have any life threatening heart problems stop reading now.

So there I was relaxing in front of my PC and checking my library when all of a sudden a strange thought crossed my mind. I havent played Witcher 2 for months and I was done with it anyway so why was it wasting precious SSD space? Acting on impulse I promptly uninstalled the game while thinking that the save files would still be in my documents folder.

Much to my great horror, I realized that even though the Witcher 2 and gamesave folders were still there the latter was completely barren. Despair overwhelmed me because I didnt want to play the game from scratch. The missing save files were a mystery, they should have been there. So I started searching everywhere, even Steam root folders without any success and when I locked my eyes with the "Cloud" tab in Steam settings, then and there I understood everything. It was grinning at me with malicious eyes and sharpish teeth, it was the culprit.

So my question is this; Will Wild Hunt pull my saves from the cloud or should I start searching the net for save depositories much like the ones Mass Effect franchise have?

It should pull from the cloud, if you have that setting in Steam. At least it did for me when Witcher 2 was randomly uninstalled (because they released the Mac-version).
