PS4 Game Save Data Vanished!

So around 3 weeks ago, I lost ALL my game save data on PS4. It happened after load-shedding hit my PS4 2-3 times within a few minutes but when I searched for this issue I found that some people have faced it for absolutely no reason. There's no way to get the data back unless you have it saved on PS+ which I didn't because I got PS+ a couple of months ago and I used to play games on another non-PS+ ID. I had 3-4 bosses left in Dark Souls 3 and had completed the main story in God of War, Horizon, The Witcher 3, etc. Of course, I had lost the will to play when it happened and I don't plan to touch these games again anytime soon because of the progress lost but I think it's a huge issue that shouldn't exist no matter what.

Same thing happened to my PS4 before 2 weeks i guess but fortunately i bought a Plus for a month at that time and downloaded all my save data from the cloud storage.
I am sorry for your loss. To remain on safe side just always make a backup of save on USB atleast.

It could be possible that the game was auto saving when the power failure occurred. If that was the case then it is almost certain to cause data corruption.

    Just finished Diablo 4 season in hurry to play Fallout 4 but gamepass released another banger in the form of Star Wars on April 25th. Gamepass is a steal man.

    Is it just me or people lately seem to defend every bad game design decision made by the devs and try to give bullshit reasons for that? Or perhaps it's because I'm on reddit and discord :ROFLMAO:
    There are no such thing as "bad design" bro, its all "artistic vision" now :ROFLMAO:
