Recently, I upgraded to a new laptop that can play Dragon Age. Much to my surprise, when I started the game on my laptop I was able to pick up right where I left off on my desktop. Now this is very convenient, but I worry about possible problems like corrupted or out-of-sync saves. I know this can be a real problem in other games (e.g., Skyrim), especially when using mods. So has anyone else has a problem playing on multiple PCs, or is it pretty safe?

I prefer copying and pasting the saves manually, but as far as I know sync works fine

I've done it by manually moving saves as well, worked fine. Don't exactly distrust the online functionality, just wanted to be safe. And as I moved my mod folders anyway, I could just as well throw in the saves too.

From my experience the only time it will take a save from the cloud is when you don't have a save on that particular PC or the save uploaded to Origin is newer then the one on your computer. I have been using Origin since it was first released and during that time I have played over 1000 of Mass Effect 3 and now close to 400 hours of Dragon Age: Inquisition and haven't encountered any corruption. I have had a few times where my internet connection died and it asked me which save I wanted to use for it didn't upload my current save to Origin.
The only real problem I have had is with Dragon Age: Origins and that is because the saves for that game can get very large and exceed the maximum allotted size for Origin and that has caused a few frustrations so I don't bother with syncing my saves with Dragon Age: Origins and don't even bother having the client running when I play that game.

I don't trust any cloud storage so, I sync my computers, and other devices via my thunderbolt drive (high speed external, large capacity hard drive array that can transfer data at up to 20 Gb/s)

It's worked fine for me. Its pretty quick and easy. Just have to be careful regarding when you overwrite the cloud vs your harddrive.

If the save on your computer is newer, it will ask you which you want to use.From my experience the only time it will take a save from the cloud is when you don't have a save on that particular PC or the save uploaded to Origin is newer then the one on your computer.
