The funniest thing happened to me today. I have a level 52 imperial wich i had at least 100-130 hours and i decided to make a new character cause i wanted to be a elf and i went to load back in my previous character and he was deleted haha i love skyrims way of saving, has this ever happened to any one else hahah im not even mad bro

Wait... in game hours? What does that equal in real time?

Think you have a couple extra zeros in your hours played...

Hm, the only way that could possibly have happened is if you solely relied on the Autosaves...

I'm not sure the game has been out that many hours?

Even if it had, you'd have to have been playing 24 hours and day, seven days a week, non stop. If that was the case, maybe this is fates way of telling you to get a life? See some sunshine?

Somewhere between 11 and 15 years ?

I think a little too much zeros..Anyway that's why its wise not to rely on autosaves OP.

Yeah, basically. Either the OP put unneeded zeros, or is using in game hours.

let's do some math...
One year= 8,760 Hours
Skyrim has been out for roughly one year, and four months, rounded down, unapproximately...maybe around the area of 10,000 hours, give or take...
By OP's figures, He's been playing Skyrim for...roughly 15 years.

Haha oops i ment 100 to 130 hours , how did i mess that up

I want a time machine too.
Figured. Funny mistake though. You even added commas haha.

Do you rely only on autosaves?

Hah wasnt a spelling error i just wasnt thinkin straight

No i dont rely on auto saves i had 2 saves for my main and one when i was lvl 40 so when i created a new one it deleted my last save wich was when i was lvl 52 so i still have the save from ll 40 but im not starting again

my freind recently had his save removed after creating a new character.
he plays on ps3.
i asked him if he chose to make a new save or save over his other character.
he said he chose new save.

it might be a bug.

on xbox i save twice because sometimes after saving, when i switch my console off after it finishes saving it doesnt actually save.

i know this is happening because mutiple times i have went to load the save, but it has not been there so i load the most recent auto save.

Hmm, I have yet to experience that on my Xbox.. (cross fingers)

I play on PS3, and I just keep characters on seperate accounts. Makes it easier when you go to start playing and you can either log into Nord Warrior Logan or Khajiit Thief Qa'Joto.

That was your own fault!
Pay more attention next time when dealing with saves.
