omg so many misinformation here. I expect mass ban by trying to transfer edited save files to OFW. Have fun. I warned you all.
One thing for sure is you never edited a save to spout such nonsense. It is indeed a guaranteed whenever you try to edit a game that is highly monitored by Nintendo (smash ultimate & splatoon) and has separate offline & online stuff. MHGU for example is a paradise for save editing, even when getting unreleased content on your save file (my proof is my 1000+h account filled with unreleased stuff that i imported from the japanese version of the game (MHXX). Never banned. Same goes for offline games.
However since all of MH Rise can be done offline, they don't really have a way to figure out whether you're hacking or not since anyone can play offline for 300+h then go online all of a sudden.
Anyway feel free to ask me if i'm banned in a week or even in a month, i'd be glad to show you i am not.
