Both make the saves incompatible but dropp a couple of ideally choosen saves before the new parts/update, this method leads to the least amount of moaning possibility form the playerbase. Also who is intrested in the story will replay the old parts who is not intrested will skip it one way or another.
I second that; you might even want to hardcode that instead of just uploading save files somewhere. I.e., when you start a new game, you get a warning "This version is not compatible with old saves; it is recommend to start a new game; but it possible to directly jump to ..". If you choose the second option, you are asked on which path you want to start.

- make sure that saves are not compatible and force people to start from the beginning again?
.....
What are your thoughts?
Ah, the ol' Cavia special - "fuck the players and fuck you, specifically, for playing this game". So this one, obviously.
In all seriousness, this is the better option for reasons everyone else has enumerated. The less you trust the players - including me - to have any technical awareness, consideration, or even basic reasoning skills, the better, and the less headaches you'll give yourself.

Actually, it's thought thebwhole trip, while knowing the way, didn't take more than two weeks (from Greenland).
Obviously, they didn't have to make a porn game in the meantimes, lucky them!
Well I blame worldhistory.org for telling me that each expedition was thought to have lasted between one and three years. That's what I get for just taking something I found in the very first link I opened without double checking, it was probably talking about the first expeditions trying to find the land Bjarni Herjólfsson saw.

Either way, I assume they know how to fish, though without vitamin C, scurvy is a problem for those longer trips.
