Stuck in the quest: The Womb of the mountain

[Pawel Guzowski]

Does anyone know how I can avoid falling down from the wall in this one?

Description:
I get on the wall and talk to Resh.
The little movie starts with the currupter changing the machines.
The movie never comes to an end as Aloy falls of the wall in front of it.
The mchines vanish and she can't get back in as the gate is closed.
I've tried and go back few saves but she always ends up with falling down from the wall during the movie sequence.

Do I have to start all over or is there a walk-around to this?
Thanks in advance for any help.

she is suppose to jump down as the movie shows and you are back to playable third person. the gate doors get hammered and broken by machines and they flood in.

[Pawel Guzowski]

Yes but that is not what happens in my case.

She falls of the wall in front of the gate before the movie is over.
It cuts the scene so the whole charge of those machines at the gate is not there.

When I load the game from last save than the fight sequance within the wall plays out.
But here Resh is dobbled.
There is the one on the ground fighting and the one on the wall talking to the other character.
After the fight is over the one on the ground doesn't want to talk to Aloy and the one on the wall behaves like the whole fight didn't happen yet.

The quest doesn't end so no way for me to play pass this part.
It may need a whole new start.

You might have to go further back in your saves to correct the problems. The game has annoying habit of loading the game as if the objective was complete, which it is not. I had a similar problem later in game with a power puzzle. That when I found there was three auto saves.

I have this same problem IU have gone back 3 saves and still having the issue. I was able to make my way back to the Village by going up the mountain an the Demon attacked but even after killing the demon and getting the cutscene it says I need to talk to Resh to advance but he will not tell me anything other then to go away. Is this really bugged that bad?

[Darkwacky]

IF anyone else is stuck here I finally got past it by doing these steps

Load auto save from inside the mountain
went through the mountain story
When I talked to Resh I skipped the story. That prevented me from falling outside the gate.

Same problem here, but as Darkwacky posted, skipping (SPACE BAR) the video conversation works that the quest proceeds as supposed to, without falling off the wall and still having to talk to the warchief.

Most likely:
Corrupted game data - verify integrity

I have the same problem. I tried starting from each game save I have going backwards. I went quite a ways back and still have the same issue.

I was able to fix the problem caused by this bug - the latest build of the game still has it. When cutscence should end and Aloy falls of the wall in front of the gate before the movie is over - after then it cuts to the scene so the whole charge of those machines at the gate is not there exit to the menu, then choose "Continue". You should be teleported back into the village, in front of the gate, seconds before gate will be ripped off and Demon machine with corrupted Striders will appear. Defeat them as usual and you should yourself in situation when you still need to talk to Resh, as Pawel describes it. Problem is Resh has duplicated and one is waiting on ground level, but has nothing to say to you - talking to him doesn't trigger anything. Second Resh is still on the wall and you need to talk to him to finish the quest, but there no ladder to reach him. On the left hand side of wall there is bunch of logs - you can climb them and try to jump on the platform with basket filled with arrows, from there you'll be able to reach Resh. When you'll talk to him the whole cutscene will play one more time as if nothing happened, you need to choose "Open the gate" dialog option and when the cutscene with Demon machine will start to play you need to skip it. Then you should stay on the platform and be able to talk to Resh one more time, instantly finish the quests as you already defeated Demon machine. I hope this will help somebody :)!

Mike_Sol :: I jumped on the logs as you suggested but there is a support beam blocking me from jumping up to the platform with the basked of arrows. I tried jumping up on the logs nearer to the basked but could not jump up. I tried many times to jump but was always blocked by that danged support beam which doesn't even allow me to grab onto it. Nothing I have tried works.

Because of this bug, I cannot finish Womb of the Mountain -- no completion, no goodies for completing it either. I am loathed to continue without being able to finish this.

The game is beautiful and plays well otherwise, but I am seriously thinking about getting my money back for a game that is broken.

Easy fix would be loading your last save. then as soon as you talk to Resh, select skip and it should lead you to the scene where you would fight the machines. then the task would be done.

More than three years later and this glitch has still not been fixed. I beat the machines and it will not advance the quest.

What have you done to let the developers know about it?
Have you provided them with your savegame file (prior to the wall climb), so that they can see for themselves?

That would be pointless. They haven't updated this game in ages.

Pawel Guzowski and edscam6 seem to be the only two people with this issue. How precisely are the developers supposed to fix something that they can't reproduce?

Not to mention the cutscene can be skipped and it should put Aloy on the 'right' side of the wall.
