Gale romance after patch

[Shadow♥]

anyone else having problems getting the weave scene to trigger now since this patch. his romance was working fine before this patch. now i cannot get the weave scene to trigger.
UPDATED: So they actually moved the weave scene to the party as someone told me in this forum. Once you go to the party is when Gale invites you once you do long rest you get the weave scene. I thought it was broken since Larians notes were not very clear on how much they changed.But for those romancing him, you will get the opportunity at the party, just do not promise a night with anyone else visit Gale first at the party and you should be good. just save before so in case you choose wrong dialog you can reload.

I don't really hate straight men or anything I just hate hypocrisy, when a woman hit on you it's okay but when other men do it its not ???? Like come on you either say no to both or just shut up, and I said straight men because they are the one who are hating on gale because of that but when that st upid a££ githyanki did the same thing no one said anything fuing hypocrite, I'm not really attracted to woman and when that githyanki did that I didn't make it my whole personality and talk ♥♥♥♥ about *straight* ppl because of it, and again I don't hate straight men :).

I also never complained when every female character hit on my character. I just want my Gale romance because as a female, he is my kind of man and now after this patch they did he is broken so now females like me cannot even romance him. It is just really frustrating.

I understand romancing Gale has had issues since EA, and this patch made it worse again, and it makes me sad.

I ran into exactly the same problem with the Weave scene, and my older save in which I managed to get it, missed out on the talk a night or so later so my Act II romance scenes failed to be romantic.

Can confirm that it's not triggering for me either. Past the point where it should have by now. In EA this happened, and killing Gale then going through his resurrection bit would sometimes fix it. I'll at least give it a try, I'm close to 20 hours in on this play through. Interestingly I've gotten some sort of fail safe line for Shadowheart to start a romance with her (which I have no interest in). I don't remember ever having that line available before and I've had/played this game since it first released in EA.

Interesting connection. I'm fairly sure Gale died accidentally in my current run and got resurrected through the fail safe, so to speak. Still did not get the scene tho.

I'm not sure if it was answered, but the Weave scene didn't trigger until the Tiefling party. It's like they combined the old kissing scene from EA & the Weave scene into one, minus the kiss. I gotta say, it's the first disappointment of the game I've experienced. The dialogue is kind of buggy. Like if you see Mystra and choose the "I thought you had something to show me" option, the scene ends abruptly. I saw there was a 6 MB update today, so I'm hoping maybe some small fixes, this being one of them.

yes I got that line for shadowheart too even though I had no interest either. they just totally broke Gale romance this patch. I am sad as he is the only one I want to romance.

really? it triggered at the party? that is weird
it was always triggered earlier in the game before.

Yes. I was concerned they borked Gale due to the fact I would trigger the Weave scene literally after leaving the Emerald Grove after talking to everyone. I just stuck with it and polished off the area and it finally triggered at the party. But, it is super choppy and unpolished. I preferred how it was before, even if his "I'm too destructive to be horny" dialogue was all I got.

True. This time I can't trigger the weave scene anymore after leaving the emerald grove.

Wonder is it true the combine the Tiefling party? That's really a disappointment.

That's odd if that's on purpose.

I failed to trigger the romance properly on an older save, because I missed out on the conversation that comes after the weave scene. It's not that likely for a character to stick around in Act I after the party, so it would make no sense if they did that on purpose.

Just use the correct dialogue options, guys. Just say YES.

There is no conversation so I can't say 'yes'. That's the whole problem.

The correct dialogue isn't a question here. The Weave scene was intended to segway into the Tiefling party scene. Now, the Weave scene is the party scene.

I'm frustrated because I rarely get Gale interaction outside of feeding him artefacts and the scene they put together is a bit sloppy in my opinion.

What is strange is I've done a lot of Act 1 plays prior to the patch & only once did I trigger the failure scene and party scene after the Weave scene. Even weirder, I got the "thank you" dialogue only after I promised myself to Astarion for the night & he mentions I'm too busy. When I reloaded on that save & went back to Gale first, the dialogue was back to "I'm too destructive to touch you".

Gale has been an enigma before Act 2 for a long time. I really hope they change things.

It is true it is now at the Teifling party where you get the weave scene. they took away him in the scene where he said he locked himself away that was originally at the party. now you get weave scene at the party but you must go and speak to Gale first and agree to the magical thing. then when you are finished at party he will have the weave scene with you. I think the other way was better because you had the other scene too about him in his tower to keep others safe. the way the romance is now you literally have no clue that he likes you except for the level thing you can look at that shows his approval of you. then at the party you get the weave scene and can pursue the romance. it is way different than before now.
