I was thinking like a bear. Big, menacing, kings of the forest. And then they go nap like half the year.

Sounds like the life.

So deleted the corresponding save file....but it just regenerates when i boot up the game. Its the same file I just deleted (even ran some hashes on it).

Maybe they're just paralyzed? I like the lore implications of that. Could be a run plot device to kick off a "why Dracula's been gone for the last 200 years and suddenly popped up again"

I could just see a division of a larger vampire hunting organization calling themselves "The Campers" who's whole mission is to find vampires and set up a tent over their resting places.

Right. I've only played till soul silver of the "real' games and I'm pretty sure Soul Silver is the only one that has that "feature"

Its not something the hacker built in. Apparently the instructions were included in the paper booklet that came with the game. Just pulled up a soft copy and the instructions are on page 10.

Pokemon should always allow you to overwrite existing save data. It just asks you to confirm you're sure before you overwrite.

It looks like for a little bit in the Nintendo DS era, they were looking to make that erasure more difficult (I'm not going to postulate as to why). For HG/SS you had to return to title screen and hold up + SELECT + B and that would take you to a hidden menu for deleting save data. (Forum board explaining the steps, as proof)

Obv this won't work in my case since I can't return to game once I hit the title screen.

Also, the save data isn't baked into the ROM. Save files and save states are stored as separate files from the rom itself.

I was not aware of this. Thanks for pointing me in a direction!

Well by that logic, if you found a vampire's lair /tomb while they slept, and then three a tent over it, wouldn't that cause them to die?

I'm def of the opinion its all about entering a building (not necessarily about being in one).

In this same vein, if a vamp-cop's partner entered the home, then invited the vamp-cop in, would the vamp-cop be able to enter then?

I need this in green text format

Yes, this, 1000x this.

God the only thing it needs is multi threading (I acknowledge it's an incredibly difficult thing to implement). But probably the oldest game I still regularly play. I've put ~~at least 8000~~ almost 6000 hours into it since I first bought on 2016.

New DLC was just announced last month too.

Ninja edit: Just double checked and apparently I'm just short of 6000 hours into the game. Still, incredibly good.

Oh, so that's what cats are up to when we're not looking.

The cat is just good at covert operations.

As a former customer, I can't help but wonder what their catch is.
