I actually figured it out, if anyone has a similar problem in the future. Very strange solution. Starting with a fresh install and copying over the entire SH5 folder (under users\[username\documents) with your old save games does not work. The game pulls the list of possible saves to load from somewhere else, maybe the cloud.

What worked was to start the game up, go to Load Game and then with the game open, alt + tab to the desktop and then delete the contents of the current SH5 folder (under users\[username\documents) contents and replace them with your old saves. When I switched back to the game and refreshed the list, only then did it see the desired saves. Weird. Must be some new cloud save mechanism from Ubisoft Connect?
