I thought that bug was related to cross-saves, not cloud saves?
EDIT: It might have been related to both, based on the reddit bug thread. But this note was in the first Hotfix list:
Disabled Larian Account cross-saves temporarily to solve an issue blocking loads and saves. Steam cross-saves are unaffected.
From my personal experience -- I never had an issue with saves, and I never disabled cloud saves. HOWEVER, my Steam cloud sync hasn't been working. The game works fine and I have no issues with saving in the game, but my saves fail when Steam tries to sync it to the cloud.
