Gestures not working?

[FadedMaster]

I've tried to use some gestures in front of the NPCs and they don't react. I've seen videos of people doing it and it doesn't work in my game for some reason...

What gestures are you trying, under what conditions? There are only two places you have to actually use a gesture directly iirc.

I tried the greeting and entreat gestures in front of several NPCs and they do nothing. I've read that some of them have reactions. Like Venigni supposedly gives an Ergo fragment when you use entreat. But I get no reaction from him. I think Eugenie is supposed to cross her arms or something similar. No reactions from either.

Entreat in front of Venigni is one of them, yes. Sometimes the place you have to stand is a little finicky, try moving around a little.

The Eugenie thing is incorrect as far as I know. It sounds like either someone's messing with you or someone saw a standard idle animation and thought it was connected to a gesture.

The others are Show Off Clothes for Antonia while wearing the sailor suit, Pray in front of the statue outside of Arche Abbey, and Check Ground for the one decryption quest at the cliff overlook outside Hotel Krat.

Pray and check ground worked fine for the statue and decryption quest I've tried several positions around Venigni without any luck.

For Eugenie, she puts her arms in an X shape.

Fair enough, that's odd. The only other advice I have is to try verifying your files to see if that solves the issue.

[FadedMaster]

That's such a simple possible solution. I can't believe I didn't think of it. I'll give it a try and report back.

I never got around to verifying file integrity. But gestures now work in New Game Plus. So I dunno. Haha.
