Missing DLC Backer Beta?

[Alan Nguyen]

So I haven't played the game in for a few years because I keep getting distracted, but I wanted to get into it this past weekend, and so I did. However, after I get out of the area where you save Oswald from the cultists the map freezes in a FoW and I can't go anywhere. When I exit and reload the game the save file is corrupted and says backer beta dlc missing. I'm not sure what that means exactly, but it's kind of frustrating when you sink a few hours into a game only to get hard-locked out of progressing and losing all of it. Is there a way to fix this so I can continue this save file or am I SoL?

edit: I don't know what is wrong with this forum... I can't post some texts without it freaking out completely, so I will add my reply as a picture instead (admins, please do something about this, it is a recent problem):



Cheers!

It is strange.

Is it a new game? It sounds like a new game.

One of my older saves (2nd run) got a bit broken during all the patching that was going on, nothing to the extend that you are describing though.

Looking at DLCs at my GOG there are some fig awards that might classify: Fig - Matakau, Fig - Pet Wurm and Fig - Cloak of the Obsidian Order. Plus there is Gaun's Pledge for owners of PoE1.

Perhaps go to Steam/GOGs DLC management, and make sure all that you have is installed?

Edit. Yes, forum has been very tiresome lately.
