An auto save happened while I was dying I guess and now I’m stuck in a deathloop. Please give us a main menu dev so I don’t have to delete my save data.
Okay there’s a way out of it but it’s a pain.
Important steps to follow:
Requires disconnecting controller after seeing the epilepsy warning and make sure you don’t have a bluetooth headset connected because it will make the ps5 overlay stick.
Whenever you fail the attempt you’ll need to close the application and begin again.
I was able to get out of the death loop by disconnecting the controller, reconnecting ~3 seconds after hearing the flatlining sound, and pressing X right before being able to see the message “your controller is disconnected.”
If done correctly you will see the menu and be able to scroll down to load game. Be aware not to select the main menu option like I did or you’ll be thrown back into the death loop again.
It took me like 100 tries to get it right but it works and is easy after you get used to the strict timing.
This is my version of the fix. The YouTuber who originally found it is “Eggs and Beans Reviews”
Check out his video he has a tutorial.
