Quest bug (What was lost)

[terminatorgeneral]

I need help...
I'm still stuck with the Kotallo quest and his arm... All my quests are blocked despite the end of the quest!!!!
Has anyone managed to get around this bug?
AND I add that I have already done all the manipulations found on the internet

Just for quickcheck: did you talk to him back in the Base after finishing quest?

Apparently the bug has been around for a long time

[terminatorgeneral]

Yes...
As said I was able to do all possible manipulations...
I don't understand why he doesn't patch the bug!!! However, it is easy to find an alternative..

At what point are you stuck?

[terminatorgeneral]

I'm stuck on Kotallo's quest to have his arm made. I completed the quest, I received the XP and skill points but my quest remains blocked as if I had not completed it. AND so it blocks me from all the quests in the game...
It's a hellish bug and what's more, it's known on console!!!

I hit this about a month ago, and have been frustrated as all hell trying to figure out how to "undo" it. I'd unfortunately progressed so far after hitting the bug that I had no older saves from before hitting the bug - I was totally stuck :(

If you're on PC though, and you have Version History in OneDrive (I'm not sure if you have to pay for an O365 subscription to get this, but for what it's worth, I do pay for such a subscription) you're saved.

Find your save files location, it's usually like:

C:\Users\<username>\OneDrive\Documents\Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition\76561198046116302

Right click the autosave0.dat or quicksave0.dat file > OneDrive > Version History. I had versions of this file going 5 months. Download a copy of one of these files from whatever date before you hit the bug (which in my case was from early September), and copy it into the above directory as eg: autosave6.dat or quicksave6.dat (whatever filename doesn't already exist). Then fire up the game, on the main screen go to load a save, and you should see the save file you restored, in the list.

Doing this, I only lost 2 hours of gameplay which is way better than starting all over again!!

Did anyone report this to Guerilla games via the support link? They don't seem to give a ♥♥♥♥ if it was allowed to go over to another port? I'd never buy another game from them.
