You don't just 'get hacked' randomly very easily. Most likely in those cases they were reusing the same password for multiple services, including some that got hacked earlier, and never bothered to change their password on PSN. Then once the hacker finds out the password, they're going to try it on other services, and probably succeed on some service. There's other ways too, but I bet that's the most common reason. Solution? Use a different password on every single service. Preferably it should be a completely different password, but as long as it's different, even if just by one symbol, it's already something. Use a password manager if you need to (and let's be honest, you need to, unless you're barely using any services, because a typical person uses a ton of services).

I wasn't trying to imply that it's easy to get hacked, and I don't really care how it happens, but it does happen so a friendly reminder about 2FA seemed necessary. FWIW I have yet to be compromised despite using slight variations of the same password for like.... 8 years >_> it's just a really fucked up password that is gibberish and numbers lol

Ok, so I think it's a lost cause to recover my save data, but the only save file that I care about is Dragon Quest Builders, since every other game is finished. The way the game works is that there are chapters and on the main menu you can chose to start from the beginning of each chapter. I'm at the very beginning of chapter 3 and I was wondering if there was some sort of website that you can download completed save files from that I could download onto my PS4 with a flash drive, so then I could just go back and start from Chapter 3 again.

Your options for saves are ~

PS+

Whatevers salvageable on that hard drive

a thumb drive/external storage((thumb drives are just easiest to move around, cheapest, and the least obtrusive))

 

 

If you can't recover your saves from your ps4 you're out of luck. Go into safe mode and rebuild your database. See if that helps.

 

I already tried rebuilding my database, but that didn't work.
