G'day, folks!
I now have my PC and PS5 both updated to the newest patch, and I've been able to transfer games between them. However, there are a couple of things to know:
The main one is that the cloud save only saves ONE manual and ONE quick save (the most recent).
So, if you play the game on your console, it happily saves that game to the cloud. However, if you then play on your PC using a *different* save, then that save will overwrite the console one in the cloud, meaning you can no longer load it on the PC until you use the console again and save it.
HOWEVER, if you load that console save on your PC straight away, then save it on the PC, it'll be permanently there and you can then switch between different builds at will. And, of course, any saves you already have on a platform remain there until you wipe them.
The other thing I noted (and need to play around with more to confirm) is that when I disconnected and reconnected my PS5 from the net, I needed to log into GOG again before it'd activate cloud saves. Not sure if this was a once-off thing or something that'll continue to annoy me - alas, I left my PS5 controller at work, so I can't check right now.
(Yeah, I was using my work's internet to download the patch. I'm in regional Australia, and I rely on a mobile phone for my internet out here; not great for big patches!)
Cheers,
Merric
