Stuck in Drangleic Castle? (bug?)

[24k magic]

So I'm stuck in this crazy castle, I got inside, made my way to the 1st bonfire, cleared out all those doors that needed souls to open up. Got them opened up and got the loot.
(took awhile lol)

Made my way up to the Queen yadayada talked to her, killed the dragonriders afterwards I reached a bonfire. Now there's a lever that doesn't work and a green that door won't open pretty close to the bonfire if im not mistaken.

I went up the ladder (up along the broken elevator?) into a room with stonesoldiers and one golem but the thing is nothing happens when I enter this room and walk up to the soldiers.

They remain kneeling and by this time I had to go online and watch a walkthrough and the guy I was watching pretty much did everything I did (but faster) the only difference is his stonesoldiers aggros him so he can kill them and power up the golem shrine-thing but I cannot.

Can anyone please tell me what I've missed or is this a bug?

lure a enemy from the other room, it was probably the non DX11 version where they move.

yup like he said lure one of those manikins close to the big statue and kill him so that he unlocks a door.
