I don't even see how people play this game
I am trying to lead brother Martin back to the priory from Kvatch. A dozen times now I have lost him and have to load a prior save to get him back. This is ridiculous. This game is so full of bugs and game breaking ♥♥♥♥ it isn't even the slightest bit fun. I wish I hadn't paid $50 for this POS. I am about to uninstall.

just fast travel if hes not there wait a few hours/days
i have noticed the AI is more buggy and prone to just stand around in this version and it is noticeable/annoying

IF I can fast travel at this point in the game, I don't know how. One minute he is there, the next he is nowhere to be found. Typical in most games with "lead someone to point A". NPC AI is atrocious in video games. Followers in Skyrim drove me insane.

I fast travelled as had visited that point already just by aimlessly wandering around. When I got there they both magically appeared.
You don't necessarily have to do that mission first. Just skip it and started doing random side quests within your players strengths

You can. Unless you're doing a no fast travel playthrough.
Well, generally you see with your eyes. Unless you happen to be a Brittle Star, which you couldn't be since a fully sentient seastar would be news worthy.

As for your issue, people have already stated: fast traveling fixes disappearing companions.
You can easily fast travel back to the priory. Martin is marked as essential so can not die during the travel. You might have to rest or wait for a little bit for him to arrive.

Another option for you depending on how quickly you want to finish this stage of the quest is to just have him follow you around while you do other stuff. Since he is essential and can't die. He will help you fight anything that you come into contact with. He will even heal you if you get hurt.

More jank than the original, since I don't recall seeing that in the original game from 2006 nor on the "2009" game on Steam, or even the GOG DRM Free version (which may have more bug fixes than even the 2009 version).

I did it in two saves, no issue at all.

Same jank as the original. Original Oblivion is worse though.

Nope. You can keep repeating that , but anyone can fire up the original version on either 2009 or GOG version and see that isn't true.

Even the 2005/2006 version that isn't true, and certainly not for the GOTY edition that was on PS3.

But you can keep pretending it is by parroting mindless influencer talking points.

Fact is, this game is even more broken than the original.

I don't need to, you're already doing it for me. It's time to take off the rose tinted glasses.
