Hello guys ,

Well lets right bumb into the problem :

You all know this nice little FADE thingy , which you got trapped in when doing the mages tower quest as a grey warden. well the problem is when I got to the last boss the "Sloth Demon" My companions arent showing up , and they usualy should show up. Ive freed them all 3 from the Nightmare dreams. Anyway some say I have to restart the whole Fade quest to get this working. Or kill it alone. Well Im not going to start over again , It took me like 2 hours to finish it. And I cant kill it alone even not on "Easy" mode. So I have 2 options , either start over again or get cheats and use them to kill the "Sloth Demon". But I will not start over again nor use cheats.

Someone give me a solution for this "Freakin' anoying problem"

Thats my story:unsure:

Kind Regards,

Armada.

Ok well I figured out that the bug only apears if you talk to the Demon before freeing ur companions , so for all who are going to have this bug , just go to a save before u talked to the demon , free all ur companions , then talk to the demon an defeat him .

I didn't run into this specific bug, but at the same point I did have an issue where Shale completely disappeared in the dialog scenes, but reappeared in the actual combat, weird.

[Sammie_22]

What about people like me, who did talk to the demon, and do not have a restore point prior to that without going way back in the game? How can this guy be defeated? I'll use cheats at this point, I'm sick of dying trying to fight him solo (even on easy mode).

[Allan Schumacher]

Just to be clear on this, you're unlocking all of the parts in the Fade, talking to the Sloth demon (without fighting), then freeing all your party members, and then challenging the Sloth demon?

Thanks.

Allan


EDIT: Nevermind, I have verified the bug and it has been reported.

I am not sure how you can work around the issue if you don't have a saved game nearby. I don't know what the command is to enable the developer console on release versions of the game, but other people have mentioned a god mode cheat, so it seems as though that is definitely an available option. Searching the forums should lead you to that solution, but at this time I'm not sure where/what the solution for that would be.

Yes, that's what happened. I am glad you found the bug. I would prefer not to use cheats, but I'd also like to continue the game. How quick are you guys to put out patches for stuff like this?

[Allan Schumacher]

It's hard to say. I just work in QA so I don't know a lot of the details of the upcoming patches. I know that there has been a lot of discussion lately about what should go into the patch, as it is a balancing act of making sure we get enough of the issues, while prioritizing the big ones, and trying to get as much into one as possible without denying the fan base of a patch.



We've given out some smaller ones that were relatively quick to find, so it's possible that this may continue to happen as we sort out other issues. I can't really comment much further because I don't know the details, and don't want to mislead anyone reading this about expectations of what could be in a patch, and how long it will take. Sorry about that.



Although if you're playing on the PC, it is possible one of your autosaves still has you confronting the sloth demon prior to talking to him at all.

[Sammie22]

Unfortunately there isn't an auto-save prior to that. But thanks for the help and info. I will just use god mode to get through that part and continue the story.

[Selvec_Darkon]

If I may suggest, a tag of *Spoiler* on the topic would probably be a good idea.

Hi,



i have a little problem also depending on this matter. I was able to free two of my companions but im completly lost on Shale.



I haven't talked to the Sloth Demon.



After i appear on Shales Island, i can't move further on. I'm able to click the path i have to move to, but as my char has to move trough a rock and a statue it keeps running arround without moving into the right direction. I tried several appearance changings that i know (ghost, mouse etc.) but nothing is happening at all. I click on the statue to see if anything happens but it was useless.



I'm using the german version an the patch 1.01b with DLC Prisoner of Stone.



I made a save before moving on. As far as i could see i had no problem with Cutscenes etc. But i realy want to make this part of the Fade too.

[AdamSobotka]

Same problem here. This is really ruining gameplay experience guys.

[EnvyW]

What is unfortunate about this, is until you mess up and cause the bug, you don't know to avoid it. I've made the mistake of going into the center to Sloth prior to freeing my party. I've now freed them and the bug is in place. I have to agree....it is stuff like this that ruins a game. I've invested too much of my time to start over. This is a game ender for me if I can't find a way past it.

[judarican]

same thing happened to me (the prob with my guys not appearing during sloth demon battle)

[Matthew Young CT]

On the unable to wake up Shale thing: Use the keyboard movement (WASD I think it is?) to move past the statue. For some reason the pathfinding is broken there.

[phordicus]

there's got to be a way to set the variable of "talkedtoslothdemon" or whatever back to 0 or 1 or whatever it needs to be.

[jonas1978]

i also had this problem, so i cheated to defeat sloth demon, it was the only way to kill him, very sad to use cheat but i didnt want to play the raw fade again, 2-3 hours.

Just a suggestion for the future... keep lots of save files. I always have at least 10.... more on this game. I keep one for each major stage of the game, then I cycle through a few more just in case.
