Switch [BUG] Dark talisman quest Nintendo switch

I am experiencing an issue where the dark talisman quest will not activate. I have finished the community centre, I'm on the new beach island, I have visited the mountain at different times of the day and I have almost full hearts with the wizard. Can someone please help me?

Have you visited the train station? That is technically a separate area from the mountains.

Is it possible you accidentally skipped the cutscene and didn't notice? Have you tried talking to Krobus?

Yes I have tried and he just lets me buy stuff from his shop. Wouldn't the mission/task be in my journal too (it isn't in there).

It should, yes, but I wanted to be sure, to troubleshoot.

I know you said all different times... but all I can say is to make sure to show up between noon and 6. If it's still not working, I can't help you further, I'm afraid.

Aware this is an old thread, and imnvs was kind enough to also reply to the similar query in April 2021, has anyone else come up with other ways to investigate perceived Switch issues, particularly with this cutscene/quest?
I'm pretty sure I've met the prerequisites because I've got the Stardew Valley Hero trophy, and I've tried entering the railroad area at 11:00, 14:00, 18:00. Interacting with the block to the cave shows the ??? dialog, the force field is still in place by the mutant bug lair, Krobus just gives the shop (other than Fridays, when they mention their dedication to Yoba in dialog first), and I have no active quest in the log.

Alright, I have A solution, I was playing on PC, saw the train station cutscene, didn't even skip it, I went to korbus but he wouldn't talk because it was Friday, besides that I had no relevant quest log so I played a bit, completed the "a winter mystery" quest that I forgot to do just in case it was that, it didn't fix anything until I found someone saying they fixed it by manually flipping the flag in the save files, so I closed the game, went away from the PC to do something else and completely forgot what was doing, so when I came back I launched the game again and went to the train station again bc I was playing SVE and wanted to talk to Susan and then the train station cutscene triggered again and after that the dark talisman mission was on my quest log, went to korbus again bc it was Wednesday at that point and he opened the bug place for me
