Soft locked on Siege??
So im on Siege part 1 and im destroying the portals. I get to the last one thats in the very back thats blocked by the iron gate. I killed all the demons that were around but then died *even though i still had 3 life sigils?* and when I responded, all the demons were dead and the gates locked. Everywhere I look I cant move on past the gate. Help please?

So fricking stupid. Screw this I'm waiting for a patch. Apparently once this happens that's it, even if you restart the level

Yeah I got softlocked there and had to restart the ENTIRE mission (I was about an hour in on ultra-violence). I also got softlocked in the forge after falling out of the map entirely -- in both cases, reloading to the latest checkpoint just put me back into a position where I could no longer progress in the game.

FIX THESE BUGS BETHESDA! Or make it so that if you restart a mission you at least get to keep the collectibles, secrets, and other extra stuff.

As a completionist it is PAINFUL to have been forced to redo almost 2 hours of gameplay due to these bugs. It's a MAJOR bummer and ruins the satisfaction of progressing in this game because at this point I'm paranoid that I could lose all mission progress in an instant for reasons completely out of my control.

"completionist" - God I hate when people play that card. Also hate when people make up words. OCD and perfectionism are both mental health issues. Let's call it what it is.

Good luck waiting for a patch one a game you just spent nearly $100 on. Glad I came to the forums before I decided to buy.

Man the degeneracy and level of insecurity is insane lol. Funny you are hyper analyzing people based on a post and projecting yourself as above one another. Sounds like another mental illness like narcissism.

I fixed it, when you start siege part one, do the portal thats all the way in the swamp first to avoid this :)
not sure if this helps but I was trying to go through the last portal and it wasn't working. You have to go around to the other side to enter the arena. The portal goes away when you kill all the enemies.

Edit: and I didn't restart the mission. I tried loading the checkpoint but it was ultimately a user error on my end.
