Having to Restart-Reset my Profile/Game for the 4th time
I am getting Soft-locked and it is becoming very frustrating. So post reset, I was completing a quest when a new one became available & sort of wanted to overlap. I completed my quest about freeing Ursula from her cave (this was my 3rd reset issue; now I am on my 4th try) & also Mother G from her willow tree. Something happened where I finished my quest but..weirdly erm as my quest with Mother begun..it's when the characters got locked inside their homes and I basically was forced to reset. I couldn't interact with the characters I need to complete the quest. I couldn't even use Goofy's stall because he was trapped inside his home.
Even now as I reset it, the quest just pile up and I think I have to uninstall my game completely but guys...please help with this.
Quests overlapping. I am on a quest with Scrooge and as soon as I interact with him to check back or complete his current favor, I unintentionally start his very next one perhaps because him n Merlin have sort of merged quests in the beginning. Open scrooge store, Merlin needs blue furniture, oof so im finally am where i left off at Customer's Know Best. So far no glitching or needing to reset but I learned about Soft Locking and please help with that <3 Thank you

quests unlock as they gain friendship levels so i would stop increasing them all at the same time, just focus on a couple at a time or even 1 at a time and their quests won't overlap.

As far as the quest where almost all the characters are locked in their houses- there are two (if I remember right) that remain available. You need to work with them to free the others. It only took a few minutes as I recall. Until you free the other villagers, nothing really works. This is intended.

Since I have only played each update in order from launch, I had no experience as you describe. I am guessing that the game is not single tasking-friendly for those folks who want to complete one quest before moving on to the next. There are also a lot of natural holds built into the quests where you may have to wait several days for that particular quest to move forward.

Using time travel techniques will usually screw things up for you and you can soft-lock yourself out of any progression. Unless you just enjoy chilling and doing the daily tasks (fishing, farming, mining, and gathering) this is not a great game for obsessive play.

As always, this is still EA, so if you believe the game bugged out on you, report it to Gameloft.
