my understanding is it is saved for only primary PSN+ account?

Are you saying you have PS+ but your son does not?

Had no idea this was not a basic PSN feature. Damn Sony. I take Steam for granted I guess.

If he has used the automatic cloud function on the PS Plus he's good.
If he deleted it, then it´s gone.

Without cloud saves it's over brah. You might want to sign him up for plus to avoid these issues in the future. Or play on Xbox/Steam where this stuff is free.

Ah....I understand. Then I'm afraid his save game is gone

Welp, we have def all been there, mainly due to corrupted memory cards back in the day.
It sucks and it may put him off of restarting. But a fresh start might be fun again.

I'm surprised PlayStation has not been sued over holding save files hostage to a ps+ subscription. At the very least there should be the option to back up saves to an external drive.

True. My sister wiped my PSX memory card full of Final Fantasy saves. Crushed.

You can't save games to an external device on PS5?

I feel that pain, my cousins have done that. Sister never did. But we would get mad and go erasing memory cards lol

Save editor V1.16 FOR PS4 and PC
Elden ring save editor for the latest update 1.16. Adding weapons, armors, talisman, cookbooks. Change new game plus and edit runes. FOR PS4/PS5, and PC version. For mac and linux go to https://github
www.nexusmods.com
The description says "PS4/PS5". No clue if it's legit or bogus. Good luck.

that's pretty common. only 1 account needs PS+ for everyone on the console to be able to play online and play PS+ games. but cloud saves is a feature only the main PS+ account can use sadly

Your son is about to learn all about loss, please guide him through this difficult time.

Nope. You can on PS4, but not on PS5. You could do a full system backup, but then you'd have to do a full system restore. That's far from ideal.

I feel like if you played 700 hours of FFXV, that's just the universe correcting a mistake for you.

Worst father of all time. It's like buying yourself eggs and not letting your son eat them because they're too expensive.
what you can do is do a backup and move save files along with system data. i had to do that recently when i moved to the ps5 pro. but its a full backup of system files and save files. so you might be overwriting other newer save files.
jk. dont do any save manipulation on ps5. sony are cunts about it. just let it go. kid will learn life isnt fair.
no. they removed that. classic jimbo. you could do that on ps4.

This is actually a blessing in disguise. Time for him to move onto a better game like Dustborn.

Unfortunately the only way you can do it is to backup the whole thing. You can't just backup Saves unlike with PS4.
This will work on PS4 games running on PS5 but not on PS5 games.Save editor V1.16 FOR PS4 and PC

The fact that they don't already do this is insane. I don't even have to think about it on PC. I've literally never had a problem with cloud saves and I can't imagine going back. Shit's weak.

Loves his juicy stink trail scent
I've had this happen twice now where ps5 games shit the bed with my saves not syncing with local. Deleted 5+ hours of content I played on lords of the fallen when I was at the final boss. Never came back to the game. Happened again replaying death stranding and dropped my replay of it.
Now when I see that notification I just ignore it and keep playing my game.
As for your son it's time to do a speed run dagger only no mimic no summon man up play through.

I lost my original Bloodborne characters in a similar way. At least this is an opportunity to start a fresh run and create a new build.
Also, has he played any other the other Souls games? If not, it's a perfect time to do so. He can always come back to Elden Ring once the sting of losing his character has gone away. There's also Nioh, Wo Long, Khazan, and Lies of P that are each respectable additions to the genre that he may enjoy.

GAF sends their condolences to your son. I think that save is gone.I once lost a "perfect" Final Fantasy Tactics save file with all the secret characters, best equipment, and everyone at level 99. Looking back now, it taught me to love the journey, not the destination. Your kid will be stronger through this in the end.

need to make this a practice now for non psn+ accounts if possible.
