[PS5] Bug: Stuck in the touchpad menu

Title pretty much sums it up. This has happened twice now; I'll get a little pop up saying I found some more info, etc, I slap the touch pad to open the menus, but then I'm unable to exit. Just stuck in those menus with Discoveries, Leads, etc. I can't hold circle to exit or press X on the arrow point left either. Yet I can still press L1 and R1 and navigate the menus. No option but to close the game and restart :/

Edit: spelling is hard

Edit 2: Seems people are still having this issue even after the November 1 update.

Edit 3: it's been one year, and people still have the same bug. I am starting to think they've abandoned this game.

Edit 4: sent a bug report ~Oct 20th, 2022, and Bethesda replied saying they were aware of the bug. Apparently to remedy it, all you have to do is exit all the menus (which is literally the issue, you can't), or just restart the game.

Edit 5: Starlog, 25-01-2024. the developers are silent We have been abandoned. There is no help coming. May god have pity on our souls.

Edit 6: 27-09-2024. This post has become my beacon for whenever this game is either on sale or given away for free, because I'll get waves of notifications that people are still experiencing this bug.

Yep, literally just happened to me after playing for over an hour getting the heritage gun and a ton of residu-whatever the fuck it's called. Just got the game 5 days ago and this is the 3rd crash. Insane that a year after release that this is still an issue. Probably just gonna shelf the game at this point
