Matthias stuck, infinite load when trying to talk to him

Bugs
#1

So I managed to finish PESTILENCE side quest without losing anyone to the sickness. And I started to notice some weird things happening, as listed below:

  • Matthias lays down on the ground without animation.
  • When I talk to Matthias, infinite loading happens. Must force quit the game.
  • Sir Radzig cut scene failed to trigger.
  • Sir Radzig dialogues are not logical ( Reported to him that Merhojed is taken care of, Radzig acknowledged all people are healed. Requested me to stay because he has something to say. Talk ends. Then when I talk to him again he asked about Merhojed and ordered me to heal the sick people.)
  • Sir Radzig ordered me to meet the merchant, but there is no marker or anyone suspicious in the inn of Sasau. So the main quest cannot be continued.

I read through the forum, people having the same problem decided to ignore. And there is also a workaround for the cut scene, but then I must give up 6 hours of playtime. (It’s a mercy that I have all my saves backed up)

Personally I am still looking for a way to reactivate Matthias but no luck.

Having the same problem as well, did some side quests not knowing this was going to bug my game. looks like im locked out from continuing the main quests until this bug is fixed.

ah well, time to do more side quests then :stuck_out_tongue:

#3

So I rolled back my game, and found out that if I don’t speak to Sir Radzig about the “plague” before I give any cure out, the game will be bugged. Sadly there wasn’t a quest step where you must report to Sir Radzig first.

#4

I got the same issue. It’s really a pain. All the more so since the main quest is also stuck (no maker for anything, the quest logs says I should interrogate the prisoner, which I did during the Pestilence quest). As a result, it looks like the whole main quest is also stuck. Is it so for others?

#5

It is stuck for you if you don’t get any quest mark after talking to Sir Radzig. I guess you also didn’t trigger the cut scene which you and Sir Radgiz talk at the camp.

To fix that, you need to load a previous save where you must report to Sir Radgiz about the situation of Merhojed before curing anyone in the village ( or even making any potion ). This will trigger another line for Sir Radgiz after you give the potion out, progressing the story. If you didn’t report to Sir Radgiz first, the previous line would bug the main quest.

#6

Argh, I’ve cured the plague some time ago, and I didn’t spoke to Radzig. I’ve to load back and delete eveything i’ve done since? =/
Nobody found another solution? What if you don’t spoke to Matthias?

#7

The first time I realise this bug, I rolled back 6 hours of gameplay. Well, most of them are just roaming, side quests, a bunch of cumans and bandits, around 30k gold of income. Then I spent around 2 hours to figure out how to workaround the quest. The workarounds I found on the web are quite troublesome and confusing, one of them even resulted me -50 reputation in Merhojed.

Regarding to Matthias, I am not sure if not speaking to him would result to bug. But I suggest speaking to him as he would give some useful information.

#8

I have no issue with this mission. I’ve completed it yesterday. I’m on xbox one x btw, with 1.0.0.108 patch.

#9

Hey everyone,

I too just got this bug and I would have to give up 15 hours of gameplay to go back. Is there any talks about a patch? If not I will just be asking for a refund. I am on Xbox ver 1.2.5

#10

I just found the moment when you have to go back. It’s just after crafting the potion and before talking to the priest. If you speak to Matthias during this time, there will be no bug =)
But that made me gave up a lot of gold too T.T
