House of Hope Portal Bug
I've tried everything, including following the Reddit post from ZzzzZZzzz (I don't recall the exact name), which suggests using the mercenary, removing party members, running away, separating the main character, throwing the materials, and employing the mercenary for it. However, I'm still unable to access the House of Hope. The portal seems to be bugged for me. I summon it, but there's no prompt for entering or anything. I've tried pressing right and using it, restarting the game, experimenting with different mercenaries, and I've spent around 3 hours attempting to reach there, but unfortunately, I can't gain entry to the House of Hope. This issue is preventing me from making progress, and it's quite frustrating.

Same honestly I known this is a huge game but having a bug in one of the most interesting quests in the entire game is just pure grabage

They've apparently fixed it, it was to do with characters level 13 or over. It does not seem fixed for me though and I only just got there. I've also tried the hireling strat

In my last modded playthrough with hotfix 4 this was 100% not fixed.

Works fine, i suspect you placed the things poorly.

I don't know if this issue is resolved since i havent played a while but reloading an earlier save and then trying the hireling workaround fixed it for me but put me in a very difficult situation as you cannot swap out companions.

The issue is not the portal opening, its being unable to go through it. The animation would play, the portal would open up on the floor with its big swirling hole, and the bug prevents you from interacting with it.

Sounds like a bummer. Nosferatu calling it pure garbage is a bit emo and far fetched though. Bugs can happen. I haven't had this issue myself in any playthrough, including plays with mods.
The only thing that you could try is quicksaving and quickloading. If you still can't interact with it, try loading the game before you summoned the portal. Summon the portal again and see if the issue persists.
Also make a bugreport. Even if you would succeed after retrying. Apart form people's reactions, there will be no consequences from making bugthreads in the Steam BG3 general forum.

hi, I found it, the portal hit box trigger is on the top of the portal, this bug is annoyed me.
