Experiencing the same issue. Steam, version 1.2.5
Just experienced the same dialogue loop, but no sitting down. Steam 1.2.5 latest patch
Sad to see such a so gamebreaking bug reported a week ago still isnt fixed.
Plz tell us that 1.3 patch will fix this.
I had the same issue on Xbox One and I was not sitting down when I spoke to him. I was stuck in the same dialog loop. Very irritated right now. The save system in this game is ridiculous but that’s another issue entirely.
Same here, not sitting down, Henry just keeps saying “About those things bla bla bla”…
Yep happened to me to but the charlatan just stared at me forever repeating a shrugging animation over and over. I had to Alt-Tab and close game. Lost several hours of game play.
Same problem here…i lost 2 hours game…i hope they fix…in in stuck conversation in his house…
Alright I might have a way to actually do this quest. talk to the charlatan in his shop in sasau near the stocks. I have a theory on why this occurs. it seems like there’s a condition in the conversation for the charlatan that isn’t handled properly in the code. When you talk to him(in the tavern, meeting him at midnight in the monastery or anywhere outside his shop) the loop for the conversation tries to loop back to the menu where you trade with him but since his shop is not open/available it doesn’t know which menu to go so it loops around to the conversation about the relics. Though that’s just my observation. and it worked for me talking to him in his shop.
but I am stuck while I try to give him the shroud even though he has waited for him at his house.
I also noticed that point A and B of the mission disappear although I did them properly
The Save Method worked for me, but you have to try several times 
I tre 3 time yesterday…today i try again
I had the same issue (PS4) and tried talking to him twice - once on the side of the road and the second time when he was sitting outside the tavern. In both cases the dialogue got stuck (also in both instances I went through the whole “Miracles While You Wait” quest conversation with him). On my third try I talked to him when he was at his shop and started the Saintly Remains conversation straight away (chose ‘none of your business’ response) and it worked!
Any update from devs on this? No reply so far.
Same problem, thank god I just accepted a quest on the way and it saved otherwise hours of progress would be lost.
Next time when you encounter a speech loop, try to press the skip conversation button very rapidly.
Still broken in 1.3
i tried to stun him then went to sleep for one hour and after i spoke with him and it works
I have the same/similar problem,
I meet the charlatan at his home to hand over the shroud, choose talk and although the camera changes view no dialogue options appear and I have to crash the game and relaod. I’m hoping I can continue the quest after the next bug patch.
Just thought I’d keep this bug thread alive
Still an issue on latest version 1.3.4
same issue on ps4 latest patch. posting for the devs. hopefully a fix soon
Same problem here (v. 1.4.3). Whenever I try to talk to the charlatan to give him the schrood, dialogue options don’t load and I am stuck with a mute charlatan just bobling his head. There no possibility to access the menu and there is no “goodbye” command available in the console to force closing the dialogue.
This is not the sort of bug you can afford in a game with limited saving capabilities.
Closing Urbain’s quest first (“Saintes Reliques” in french) by showing him the bowl solved the crisis. I still don’t understand how these two quests relate but at least I’m done with them now.
