Kind of not a problem? If malware in question would try to write itself onto other drives it needs to know my luks pin and support my fs, so at worst it can try and fail. If it’s a windows machine that has it, well I’ll just nuke it after firat reoccurence. Realistically, I’ve had this setup for over a decade and there were 3-5 times when pirated game had malware.
Probably, yeah, but I have exported snapshots and backups for such cases, and data itself is encrypted. So at worst a few hours lost. They can be easily disconnected i just never actually do it.
There is no built-in (usable) browser on ps5 nor switch, and nintendo will burn to the ground before allowing people installing their own software on ‘their’ hardware.
It has more to do with characters not being professional horror survivors at the start of the series and just going on routine missing person in the woods call, that later just became part of the games. Also there is no explanation in any game why don’t they wear something a bit more protective later on.
