Diagloue Bug - 1. Continue

[Flip]

Got an annoying albeit random bug. When in dialogue sometimes you will not get your dialogue choices and only get 1. Continue option. Pressing that will select a random dialogue choice. Reloading usually fixes this but it's a pain, especially after several dice rolls in a convo. Right now had it twice on the alchmeists mirror.

Same issue happening here. It started after the recent Hotfix. Happens randomly on some choices during dialogue.
Can't see any of the options other than "1. continue" which takes all choice away from me.

Had to get into the habit of quicksaving before every single conversation now.

I found you can quick save during conversations, so when it happens, quick save and load and it will take you back to the portion of the convo just before it happens and usually fixes it.

There was the same problem with the Thai folio, where after clicking continue, my character threw the book away, thereby worsening the relationship with the companions

Anytime you see that just save and reload and it will fix it

Really? You quick saved (F5) and reloaded (F8)? Strange it worked every time for me.

Same here, really making me anxious!

Yep. Very slight spoiler for the tail-end of Act I/beginning of Act II I guess, but specifically, the one that just refused to work was during the Dream Visitor conversation in the Githyanki Creche. As my character approached, the "1. Continue..." option popped up, the voice line the DV was speaking ended, and halfway through a step my character froze in place but the game itself very clearly was not frozen. Hitting Continue allowed me to, well, continue the conversation, but I have no idea what the dialogue choice hiding behind the Continue prompt was.

Some issues are caused by slower HDD. I know you might be using an SSD but when an issue is fixed after a reload more often than not it's because the game won't execute the code in time. There is also a file you can delete that is stored with your savefile or your profile that might fix those kind of things especially if they happen after an update. Deleting it will not delete your save and it will force the game to make a new one and thus fix things like theses.

But yes do try to save before and after every dialogue and quests or big fights. Save all the time and describe where you are or what you're doing when naming the save file. It helps walk around game breaking bugs that might be roaming about. A game with so much race, class and skill specific choices is bound to be very buggy.

Let's hope they dedicate the months to bugfix even if the bigger bulk of players will stop playing in the following weeks. People are in such hurry to finish games theses days it's almost like it's a full time job or a chore to be completed ASAP. Considering the prices of games, I take my sweet time and check everything out.

I'm running the game on a WD Black SN850X NVMe. I'm fairly confident the issue has nothing to do with drive speed.

Currently having this exact issue at this exact spot, i've reloaded several times now and it feels really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ considering it's at such a high tensity moment

I actually don't think this is a bug, I think it is just supposed to be "Continue" as I re-read the dialogue as there was no missing dialogue option I picked when I continued. So I think you are safe to proceed.

Happens all the time. all the way up to the end of game

[Jardikov]

I had same issue few times, even before hotfix #4. It is happening more often when I keep pressing spacebar to skip dialogs.

I am also having this bug. It seems when it says 1. Continue, its actually selecting the first dialogue option that would appear in the normal dialogue tree. When I save and reload when this happens, it doesn't seem to fix it. I have to reload before the glitch ever happened.
