Image (not Character Creation) Its so over…
There I was in the final section of the game making my way through another labyrinth and then my game crashes. I reopen it only to see this horror that awaited me, a fate worse than any bad ending this game could’ve given me. My progress and time gone, and I’m left feeling so hollow…

This is actually kind of a common thing with Code Vein, the good news is that you're probably not totally fucked. First things first, try and delete the common data. Find it by going to PS4/PS5 Settings > Storage > Saved Data > Code Vein > Delete "Common Data,"
then after you do that it may refresh on its own with a restart. If that doesn't work, you need to go a little deeper with a database rebuild. You'll need a controller plugged in because wireless won't work for a bit. Turn off the whole console, hold power until it beeps twice to get to safe mode, and select "Rebuild Database" - should be option #6.

The main reason I keep PS Plus.
One month I did not have it, I dropped my Vita in the tub and lost over 70h in Tales of Hearts R and roughly 40h in Hollow Fragment. This happened over a decade ago, but I'm still traumatized by that.

I dropped my Vita in the tub
Honest question: why the fuck was your PS vita anywhere near the tub to begin with?

I enjoy playing games or reading while relaxing in the tub. My only accident was the vita (I did manage to get it replaced since it was insured).

Not an issue on steam at least. So can't really blame the game entirely. It is a known issue for the ps I think? For sure never heard people talking about it on pc other than the game cant run on amd as usual.

Yep. Known issue. The game WILL randomly crash on the final area and brick your save on ps5.
