Has anyone had this happen? I will begin a mystery and the quest giver will just do nothing.

It has happened with multiple mysteries including: A New England and Rekindling.

In a New England the quest giver mentions following him but then does nothing. If I reload a save, right before it reloads, the quest giver will start to speak and love, but then the game reloads.

Same for Rekindling. I enter the house and the wife sits next to the husband. Neither speak. The quest cannot progress.

similarly in the quest to help the seventh son kill a wolf. He promptly died and ... nothing happened. Quest does not end. No dialogue.

I have also noticed that my crew no longer sings or tells stories.

any ideas?

i am having this exact issue as well. I don’t know if it is a “known issue” but hopefully we can bring it to their attention

on ps4

To clarify further, I have reloaded saves from several minutes before ever encountering the quest, and the results are the same.

it appears to be systemic right now. Every “mystery” I encounter that requires an NPC to trigger something fails to trigger that action.

in rekindling for example, once the wife goes into the house, she sits down. The husband is supposed to say something. He never does.

in a New England, the npc is supposed to take you for a tour, he never moves or speaks.

again, my issue is on PS4 but I have seen people on Xbox and pc with similar sounding issues.

thanks again.

@ubi-spud

it does not. Repeated attempts to load prior to the event lead to the exact same issue. It is bad enough now that I have run onto 5 separate events that don’t progress due to this.

I have also deleted and reinstalled. No difference.

it appears to be tied to audio not triggering or something similar, because when I try to reload a save, immediately before the screen fades to the animus load screen, the npc will suddenly begin talking for a split second and then stops as the game reloads.

Thanks

i have this problem as well. I would be interested to see if you also have problems with other events like I do. Such as quest givers not reacting to you once they give you the quest.

@i_am_klutzee

sounds similar to my issue. After beginning a mystery/quest the quest giver just stands there (a New England), sits down and doesn’t speak (rekindling), dies without updating the quest (the seventh son of a seventh son).

Upon reloading, I can hear the quest giver begin to speak riiiight before the game loads into the animus. And then it all happens again.

hopefully they will see this issue and give some feedback.

Im on PS4 though.
