OH MY GOSH! I GOT AROUND THE GLITCH!
Okay, so I on a whim just tried something, and unfortunately, it's not going to work for a lot of people. But I kept thinking how the Last Resort of Good Men quest started without an issue in my first playthrough and how some of the people here were convinced that having "too much approval" would lock you out of the quest forever, so I thought back to what I'd done differently the first time around. In my first playthrough, all I had done was killed ONE of the three Venatori groups and Dorian's quest triggered with no problem. It had nothing to do with Hawke or Alexius (at least for me...). So, THIS TIME, I loaded up a save I had luckily created for right after I arrived at Skyhold for the first time. Then I went to the war table and completed "Dorian's Request" which opened up the Venatori quest, and then all I did was go eliminate ONE group in the Hinterlands. Once I saw "Dorian Greatly Approves", I went back to Skyhold and talked to him, and the cutscene where he has the letter from Felix triggered automatically, and BOOM, Mother Giselle was in the main hall right after. YAY!
Here are some things I've seen people claim:
-You have to ignore Dorian before Skyhold and not exhaust all his conversation (FALSE! I talked to Dorian every single time I went to Haven and flirted and used up all his convo options before getting to Skyhold)
-You have to choose "kill corypheous" option during your first speech as Inquisitor (FALSE! I'm a Dalish and I chose the Dalish specialty option)
-You have to ignore all other quests before doing Dorian's or else you'll miss it forever (FALSE! I didn't even talk to Dorian in phase 1 of Skyhold and just activated his quest. I also went around and talked to others as well, left Skyhold once, came back to phase 2 of the building process, and then talked to Dorian again. At this point, there were no more convo options, so I left, killed one group out of the three Venatori groups, went back to Skyhold, talked to Dorian and the cutscene happened.)
So, by process of elimination, there's definitely a glitch with going too high on Dorian's approval, which is bullspit. Because how the heck can someone like you TOO MUCH to start a companion quest with you?
Bioware, please fix this!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm on my second play through now. Once I realised about 50 hours in that my Dorian romance quest was glitched I got really dissapointed and sort of sped through the rest of the gamegame.
Now that I'm on my srecond character I was really hoping the quest would trigger no problem, as it sort of detracted from my first play through in a big way not getting to experience the romance side I was excited for. So when I finished "One Less Venatori" and still got no Felix letter scene my stomach dropped, I was experiencing the bug AGAIN.
Saw your post and decided to try it, it does mean I've lost 10ish hours of gameplay, bu whi cares! I've gone back to just getting skyhold. I sided with the templars this game BTW, I talked to Dorian and recruited him into the inquisition, flirted a small bit, then did his war table mission which triggered "One Less Venatori" went to the hinterlands, killed only one group, went back to skyhold to speak with him and BOOM! Felix letter scene and mother Giselle was in the main hall straight away!
Thanks for the advice!!!!!!!!
Retour en haut
(( but with the patch i got felix's letter cutscene again and mother giselle appeared once more and now i can safely say i've messed around with dorian in bed. fun times tbh.
