What are the benefits/disadvantages of jailbroken console ?

[doesnotexist]

I am planning to get a new PS4 Slim with firmware 5.05 and Jailbreak it but have some concerns as i have never used a console before

1. Once i bought it , created an ID , Connected it to internet with DNS configured , Went to Browser and inserted the HEN payload , will it be enough to install and play FPKGs downloaded from internet ?

2. I can download Fpkgs from Internet , but

• Can i convert real Pkgs to Fpkgs ?

• How will i get the updates on Fpkgs ?

• Will i have to play all Games at ver 1.00 with bugs ?

• How to get Dlcs ?

• If i get Fpkgs of Dlcs somehow , will i be able to install and play them ?

1. How are game saves handled on console ?

2. What is console ban , does it mean bricking the console ?

in the first place, you should never connect a jb console to the internet

 

a ban will only prevent the console from accessing the internet services

   Depends on the jailbreak. For instance, when I jailbroke my iPod in like 2008, I had a store/app called Cydia. That was the jailbreak service I used's store.

  If you jailbreak provides software for it, or you put the files on your PC and use a converter. 

• How will i get the updates on Fpkgs ?
  Probably by redownloading them. 

• Will i have to play all Games at ver 1.00 with bugs ?
  Depends on what illegal pirated copy of the game you get. 

• How to get Dlcs ?
  Prolly the same way as getting games. 

• If i get Fpkgs of Dlcs somehow , will i be able to install and play them ?
  Not really feeling like helping anymore. 

1. How are game saves handled on console ?
   By being written to the hard drive? 

2. What is console ban , does it mean bricking the console ?
   Console cannot access internet, & all online accounts are permanently banned as well as credit cards and information tied to the accounts for eternity. 

Why not just buy games? Aren't there still some demos for consoles? You can return PS4 games with a receipt.
