Save Curnow bug?

[jcrow]

So I follow Curnow and Campbell, choke out Campbell before he stabs Curnow, Curnow just walks off.

I finish the mission and get back to the Hound Pits and Callista is sad that her uncle died. Err what! Was there something else I had to do?

Curnow will be killed by the Overseers. You must knock him out and follow the objectives.

I've never had to knock out Curnow, and he's always gotten out of there just fine on his own. OP, I advise hitting Campbell with a sleep dart while you're hiding. That will make Curnow run, and he'll be able to get to safety. The guards won't go after him, they'll be too focused on trying to find you.

After freeing Overseer Martin from his handcuffs, don't open the iron door behind him that leads to the street; don't touch that door. I don't know how they are related, but it's what triggered the bug you mentioned.

Thanks for the replies. Maybe if I play again I'll remember this.

the way you're supposed to do it is you have to knock them both out and pick up curnow, there will be an objective marker called "a safe location" you have to take him in order for it to trigger as he's alive and calista is happy. also, even if you just knock out or kill campbell curnow still dies because the overseers know to kill him.

I have played this game maybe 8-10 times, and I have never knocked out Curnow and carried him somewhere safe. I know it can be done but I always just trust that he will make it out on his own - he always does (In low chaos, I knock out Campbell in his "party" room, and in high chaos, I poison him). Lucky RNG, I guess, but I think putting him in the dumpster guarantees his safety.
