Stuck in Chapter 2...

[mithril83]

With Anna, I push the desk as far as it will go to the right, climb on top of it, but can't use it to climb up the ledge... Am I missing something, or is this just broken?

You're probably just missing something, but I don't really know where you are. Chapter 2, Anna, okay. What desk? What part of the level? What's your goal?

Needs more detail before I can give any help!

It's in the three story house in Ypres. There's a desk on the first floor, a woman (SOS) on the second floor, the bedpan and the gold key on the third floor. I just checked a video walkthrough, and it doesn't look like I'm missing anything. I push the desk all the way to the right and climb on top of it, but it won't let me climb up the ledge to get outside the house.

If you need more specifics, the point I'm talking about occurs at 5:17 in the following video:

I sometimes had problems getting the character to climb up ledges, but they were usually sorted by fiddling a little bit - moving a little bit back and forth on the ledge, pressing up and towards it at the same time as I'm pressing the interaction button, and so on. But I never encountered any game stoppers.

Problems like that are really tricky. I've heard some other people have had issues like that too, but nobody seems to know what actually causes it. :/ Sorry I can't be of much help - I thought you might have had a puzzle problem (in that part of the game it took me a while before I suddenly realized how the paintings were involved), but you seem to have the story progression well in hand.

In a different thread, someone mentioned having talked to the lead designer of the game at a gaming convention recently, who had promised to look into this game's bugs and about getting a patch out. Hopefully that bears fruit soon so more people can get to enjoy the story to the end.

Yeah, I tried fiddling, resetting and even went on a berserker rage with the stick, but no such luck for me... After that, I checked the video walkthroughs and saw that I wasn't messing up. Hopefully they will get this sorted out eventually.

Thanks for the attempted assist.

hello! i think you maybe clear that problem, but i talk to you just in case.
don't press move right and move up in same time. i mean, just stand on desk and close to wall, and press up, not with right.
i play this game on pc, game is awesome but that point was problem to me, like you. i pass that point like what i say to you.

hopely help to you!

[mithril83]

I actually set the game aside, to play some other stuff, but I'll give that a try whenever I pick it up again. Thank you!

Just did it today. I didn't have any issues. I have had a few realisations that I'm pressing sidewards instead of up when the characters don't climb.

I was in the same situation. When you climb on the furniture, get to the right, then press UP, adn just up, she will climb.

Thank you! Geez, I was stuck in the same part. The controls are very touchy there.
