Started the DLC. Need to go to Ledetchko and play the player. He is always sitting at a regular table, not the gaming table, and drinking. No dialogue options. Sometimes if I sit next to him he gets up but he only goes into the tavern. I have pick pocketed him, punched him, whatever, waited for two days, but he never plays. I have sta at the dice table - he doesn’t come over.
I went back to a previous save and looked for more dialogue with Hans Capon. There was one more question to ask: “How can I find the player”. I did that hoping it would put the player at the game. Didn’t work.
This is at least the third time I have started and abandoned the DLC for the same reason, so it’s not a “reload and try again” situation. Been there and done that more than once.
