No, you can still choose your profile But EA account is back, and like Heroes, they'll let you choose between your account (With all your profiles) or a new one (Blank, no profiles) I never played Heroes so I'm afraid you lost me with that example. When you connect to Shit Services as in log in to their shit server, you are making a cloud save. If you opt to skip that shit however, you can just keep a manual aka local save on your device via that file of yours and you can play with as many profiles you have created in the past. But if you opt to eat their shit by logging in, you will be forever forced to select that one profile that is at the first position (because of a bug that is in the current soft launched version). However, if you log out, your cloud save gets removed and your pp.dat becomes dryasadesert.dat.

Got that? I see. So then this will prevent them from ever restoring lost data on alternate accounts then too I assume. And considering the game has been known to do that, that's just lovely.

EDIT: And isn't that what they were tinkering around with not that long ago? Where they had people "log in". They disabled that at least for the time being so I don't see that being an issue. Which is why this "feature" is not exactly needed for those who know how to backup manually. Seriously takes just copying and pasting a file. That is it. Why bother logging in? That's fair enough. Well then yes, I won't be using that feature if they plan to bring it back. TBH, this is not a "feature" per se. A feature is something you appreciate immediately or tend to as time goes on, this is just a tacked-on gimmick.
