[2020] Every Volcano NPC, Thrall and enemy are GONE since latest patch! Many other enemies missing on map

Hello @Keokisun, thank you for reaching out!

It’s possible that something is wrong with the savegame/database as this is not a common occurrence, which could happen due to disk errors or game crashes, for example. Should that be the case, it won’t be solvable by patching, only by restoring an earlier save or starting a new game.

In any case, we’ll register your current findings to your previous report.

As a provisory measure we’d suggest backing up your saves periodically to a pendrive as this issue has occured to you a few times already.

You may refer to Sony’s guide for managing saved data on how to perform this sort of backup.

Regarding multiple save slots, we’ll be sure to register your feedback for future consideration by the developers.
