Like a lot of people, I'm stuck in Act 3 because of a bug with Merrill's companion quest. I can't go to Merrill's house without seeing the end conversation for a quest that hasn't yet been done, and then that whole quest chain gets broken.
I've tried the console debug options, I've reinstalled...basically I've done everything of which I could think, or of which I've read on the forums. It is obvious it will take a patch to fix this. I understand that one is "in the works", but do we have any idea when this will be released?
Any news on when a patch to fix Merrill will be coming out?

The cutscene is indeed bugged, as it triggers before starting the quest, but you can still do the quest. It happened twice for me and the quest worked fine.

Unfortunately, I took your advice, but you were incorrect, at least in my case. Since the cutscene happened first, the game treated that portion of the quest as complete, and therefore didn't give me the chance to complete it. As soon as I leave Sundermount, the quest is over, and I can't get it to play out normally even using the debug script.

Apparently doing the King Alistair quest resets Merrills quest for some reason. It worked for me even though the conversation for Merrill remained out of order. I swear i read that on the forums and when i tried it my self it worked

Well that's the point, the quests should end after the cutscene, but now it ends after you talk to the elves. You still finished it and got exp and everything.

So yeah, I started act 3 last night and when I went and talked with Merrill at her house, she started talking about how "what's her name" is dead and so on.
If this King Alistair quest partly fixes it, how do I unlock that quest?

Current fix for the ACT 3 Merrill romance while waiting for the Patch. I found this on the boards a few days ago (sorry don't remember which thread & don't remember the user's name). Anyway it worked for me, here's what you do.
Immediately go to your estate after the beginning of Act III, talk to Merrill
(assuming you romanced her like me). DO NOT VISIT HER AT HER HOME YET!. Go and complete the
"On the Loose" quest after that, return to your estate and read your mail to unlock the Alistair quest (Do not visit him yet).
Next, go and see Merrill at her home. Let her cry and screw up her personal quest, then talk to her
again for the "A Talking To" quest. Now go see Alistair with Merrill in your party.
Exhaust all conversation options, then when its done, "A New Path" should appear
highlighted on your screen as a new available quest. Problem "solved".

Are you sure it making the last part of the quest to appear again (when you visit Merrill at home and see her crying) after your return from Sundermount?
