You're missing something really obvious and will facepalm. Either rack your brains or watch a video. But either way, post your reaction.

Are you in sector 2? You shouldn't be soft locked if you're far.

Softlock is when you're stuck somewhere permanently, hardlock is when the game freezes or crashes.

A softlock is an instance where game remains in a playable state, but progressing further or past a certain point becomes impossible. It's an event that can happen to speedrunners where triggers and events are hit out of order, causing the games script to break completely, thus causing the progression breaker.
Contrast this with a hardlock , which locks up the game to the point where command inputs do nothing, and the game becomes unresponsive.

I don't think it's really possible to soft like in Fusion without glitchiness, no. The path through the game is pretty damn linear.
