No, it’s a very common bug. I “simply” restarted the game since it was the very first thing I did and everything was ok on the first (would it count as second?) try.
Now I have another bug. I solved the mission of the rotten meat and found who has the bailiff’s key. Problem is I can’t speak with the Bailiff anymore. I get prompted with the key to press in order to talk to him but that simply has no effect. I can speak with anyone else I found but not him. WTF? Tried to save and reload but without success. Tried to restart the game (passing the usual 2 to 3 crashes [1 on game load, 1 just as the savegame is loaded and 1 about one minute later]) without solving the issues. Would very much like to avoid loading an even earlier save.
Other bug i saw, without taking a screen, is that the rain on the road from samopesh to the military camp looked like a river running across the street but the street is actually going uphill so that would be physically impossible.
