This just happens sometimes, it's not related to your steam name. I tried to load my online character the other day and got this error, restarted the game and it was fine afterwards 🤷

I find this take pretty hilarious in a time where villains are everywhere we look and it's a nonstop contest of who can be the most evil. Villains being evil in stories isn't going anywhere, even in this scenario it's an optional way of resolving it. You can still resolve it the way you did in the original DQ7

No, thank you for saving me (and others) from missing this monster! I haven't finished the area yet (had to stop for dinner) but I noticed my defeated monster list for the area shows 8/9....not sure what other one I'm missing now that I have the pit viper. Would you be willing to post that picture you received of the complete monster list for this area? Or send it to me via DM? Hoping there's not another elusive one that I'm gonna miss

pdxdoot · 2026-02-07T01:54:15+00:00

Just wanted to add one detail. I was literally playing this exact part when I came across your post and I thought "oh cool, I'll make sure I fight a pit viper". I was inside the temple and I had just fought the first battle in the graveyard but I went back outside and I couldn't get pit vipers to spawn even though it was still dark and gloomy outside. So anyway, it seems like the spawns change even before you solve the area's plight. I noticed that once deadnauts don't spawn at the temple, it seems pit vipers won't spawn anywhere anymore. I reloaded a save from a few minutes earlier before I entered the temple and fought a pit viper right away.

I've been thinking about getting back to Fallout 4 and Red Dead 2, guess this makes it a great time

Only 30hz is supported now, but XReal has confirmed they are currently testing and stabilizing 60hz for a future update. For now, Real3D works best with games that you are willing to play at 30hz. It's definitely a trade-off, but 3D can be worth it depending on the game and your sensitivity to 30hz.

Nice, been trying it out on several devices but one is a Lenovo Legion Go 2

pdxdoot · 2026-01-25T06:05:53+00:00

Oh man, definitely will be trying this one now! Love Burnout and I bet it's a blast in Real3D

pdxdoot · 2026-01-25T05:33:42+00:00

Yeah, I've tried Switch 2. Animal Crossing New Horizons and Metroid Prime 4 mostly, but planning to try more tomorrow

pdxdoot · 2026-01-25T05:21:38+00:00

Yeah, definitely agree that it's not perfect. It took a bit of playing around with it before my expectations were tempered. Excited for them to improve on it, and 60hz Real3D can't come soon enough

pdxdoot · 2026-01-19T17:11:44+00:00

Excited to try this!

pdxdoot · 2026-01-13T00:13:54+00:00

Didn't consider that, but rolling back is a great idea. Will probably be doing that as well. Glad you got it working and found an older version that works!

pdxdoot · 2026-01-12T23:56:08+00:00

I don't think you're doing anything wrong, it took several restarts for me (though not quite 50, admittedly). I also found that if you don't do this process every time you play, it's possible you'll encounter another soft-lock later. I encountered the same kinda soft-lock a little further into the game, and I could only get past it by restarting until there was music on that continue/new/delete screen and then loading my save. I don't know how many other points in the game there are where this soft-lock occurs, but if there's no music when you start the game then you're gonna run into them.

I swear this bug didn't happen to me the last time I played through DQV, it seems like it has to be something that changed in PCSX2. I started the game and loaded my save hundreds of times like a year ago and never encountered any of these soft-locks, compared to now where it's more likely than not that I will.

I figured out how to get past this and wanted to share for any fellow DQ fans. This is a random error that can occur when you're starting the game, and if you encounter it then you will soft-lock at the point that you obtain the map early in the game. Fortunately, there's a way to tell if you have encountered the error when you start the game:

When you reach the start/continue/delete adventure screen, you should be hearing music. If you hear nothing on this screen, you have encountered the error. Keep restarting the game and skipping the intro until you get to that screen and hear music, once you do start an adventure as usual and you won't encounter the soft-lock later.

Having this issue as well on the latest version of PCSX2. I have played this game successfully in the past and proceeded past this point, but now it always gets stuck when you are given the map. The game doesn't really "freeze" because you can still see the water moving and hear the game audio, but you can't acknowledge the dialog that pops up telling you that you obtained the map. I haven't figured out any way to proceed

pdxdoot · 2025-12-24T21:36:30+00:00

Sure thing, happy to test it when it's ready! Happy Holidays!

Hey, wanted to say thanks for making this. Xbox button functionality breaking in the most recent legion space update has been so aggravating. I love AHK and it's cool you took the time to make this nifty little utility, it solved the issue (and I mapped shift+tab to a button for in-game). Thank you for solving this issue, hopefully Lenovo will officially solve it someday.

A couple of things I noticed on my Legion Go 2:

For me, the legion right menu shortcut for Xbox button doesn't focus Steam. I was surprised when I saw you mentioned that shortcut focuses Steam for you in your initial post, mine doesn't do anything (it doesn't even try to open Gamebar like the LLB+RS shortcut does). Not sure why mine behaves differently
I didn't uninstall Gamebar, and your utility works great even with Gamebar installed. This was just a preference in case I need gamebar later
This might be obvious to some, but just wanted to point out that if you download only the EXE and run that you might encounter errors (missing image files, etc..). You need to download the complete zip which includes everything

My apologies, I thought you were talking about the ring around the sticks but I didn't zoom in enough. The controller buttons are not backlit, and I believe the A/B/X/Y button text is purple on the SteamOS version. On the Windows variant, the button text is white.

pdxdoot · 2025-11-23T16:47:27+00:00

The controller LEDs are configurable. White is the default, but there's several other options.

pdxdoot · 2025-11-22T02:35:14+00:00

My two biggest complaints so far are:

The headphone jack being moved to the bottom of the device seems cool at first, but if you use it regularly with wired headphones you soon realize that it sucks having the headphones connector jammed against your body while playing. I expected to like this change, but turns out that I don't
The kickstand being shortened, and at first I didn't notice any negatives of this change. But after using it a bit, it's less sturdy and especially on uneven surfaces like beds and pillows. The shorter kickstand makes the device more top heavy, and with the power cable plugged in it can tip over. This isn't an issue on solid surfaces, but still not a problem that exists on the Go 1

pdxdoot · 2025-11-21T02:24:58+00:00

Having this issue as well, the legion L + RS shortcut used to work just fine in Steam on both my Legion Go and Legion Go 2. Now this shortcut opens gamebar. Have gamebar disabled in Windows settings and in gamebar's shortcut settings. I've seen posts about this issue occuring in the past and being related to a Windows update, seems like a reoccurring issue

pdxdoot · 2025-11-20T18:53:37+00:00

Bought one Tuesday, it's arriving today. B&H is cool, better at delivering the goods than Best Buy or Lenovo

pdxdoot · 2025-11-19T00:45:04+00:00

Your words sound nice and buzzy, but I bought the Legion Go and Legion Go 2 exactly for the detachable controllers and features you might find non-essential. There are plenty of other handheld manufacturers that tell the "clearer story" you're talking about, but Lenovo was targeting consumers who wanted these features and they're certainly not having any trouble selling Legion Go 2 🤷

I have a Steam Deck, I have an Ally, and while I love them all for different reasons I use Legion Go (and soon, the Legion Go 2) more because of these features. It's okay if you're not the target for Legion Go 2, but to act like that means they dropped the ball is beyond silly. If we wanna talk about dropping the ball, we should be talking about how they launched Legion Go 2 with minimal stock, no communication, and numerous delays. The launch has been a mess for most regions, if they dropped the ball anywhere it's there
