Crashing After Questioning Merjohed Bandit *Resolved*

I’ve tried several times now to complete the questions and answers quest by escorting the bandit to Rattay but after deciding whether to put a good word in for him or not the screen goes black to load and the game crashes something along the lines of kingdom come: deliverance has encountered an error closing application I’d really like to progress because so far I’ve had so much fun with the game if anyone knows how to help please let me know.

Right now, that whole quest is bugged, in so many ways. Only way I have heard of past it, is to just kill the bandit. People are either getting hung up trying to heal everyone, can’t question the bandit, or like you, can’t take him in. Most people right now are either just not doing that quest until it gets patched, or just killing the bandit, and taking the letter off him.

Basically there is a bug loading cut scenes since 1.4, and when the game tries to load them, it causes game crashes. It is happening in dozens of quests. Hopefully they will get it patched soon.

Thanks for the quick reply, so if I kill him now does that mean I lose out on a cut scene?

Game is still in beta, so bugs are to be expected

Yep, the cut scene is the issue. That is why killing him and skipping it works.

Many also have a bug with the Straw cut scenes, both in his house, and with the bandit. They have to just never talk to him before going to the monastery to get the cure, and then just kill the bandit and take the letter, to avoid that scene too.

OR - and I understand that this is a progressive and revolutionary way of thinking - the devs could issue an emergency update which will begin to unravel the clusterfuck that is the 1.4.1. update and actually deliver playable content that we paid for. The Merhojed bug is just a tip of the huge iceberg of bugs that are plaguing this game right now.

You just described as perfection my problem… Well i understand that i just have to consider 2 cutscenes doomed. i will kil that guy thanks. i already lost straw cut scene but i didnt know that was because of that; i naturally left the place to the mnoastery constantly avoiding straw house

Agree 100%

So I tried it today and it worked I think the problem was that even though the main quest told me that the bandit was better the pestilence side quest still said wait for the situation to clear up so I did some other quests and tried it and now I can progress
