Progressing the main story line causes bugs with various quests (spoilers)

To be more exact, once you get past magran's teeth, the huana bounty man is nowhere to be found. Also, the mission to get help from that wild tribe for the huana queen doesn't work anymore: relevant dialogue is missing when you talk with the queen afterwards.

usually skipping some steps without giving an order to the sequence of the main missions (that is to carry out the missions following those assigned in succession in chronological order) lead to retroactively cancel missions that had to be carried out, thus leaving a kind of "relative vacuum" , which does not stop the continuation of the story because it gives you the current mission that you have to perform

to avoid this, if you are a person who likes the plot and the narrative written in games similar to this you do not have to explore anything independently if you are not asked by a png .... in case this happened and I understood so translating

I did go there after I got the mission to do so. That is to say, I did Hasongo first, where Eothas 'tells' you to meet up with him in Magran's teeth. I did a good chunk of missions in between to level up for MT. Didn't quite finish them all, as you can see. It might possibly screw with more quests. If this is intended behaviour, a warning would be nice: go ahead and lose some rewards. (The missions themselves stayed in my library!)

Weird. Cus I did the quest for that tribe you're talking about, on my way to magrans teeth. Then when I was back in neketaka, continued main quest, etc, then talking to the queen again I was able to turn in the quest for the wahaka tribe from before no problem. Of course she wanted to lock me in with the huana at that point, and Maia was gonna dump my character til I rejected the huana and burnt that bridge.

So even if you do finish that quest, that's the point of no return for the huana. But is that a similar order you did yours?

I've done a few quests like this in weird orders, but haven't run into a glitch yet (but always had that thought in the back of my mind it may happen because of how I was finishing quests)

I do not know what else to write, I personally are relatively lucky that even if randomly, I can do all the missions .... go to wikipedia of the game and see if you find the missions in sequence as they should be, if you have missed some and from whom you should take and in what context .... but generally if you skip some you should have immediately ready the next, those that you "jumped" because instead of doing "a step" you have made "three steps" , now you do not recover more if not making a load of the game very old .... but in general the missions of the main story, as well as others do not stop, but continue "based on the position" in which you arrived with your progress

with few words the game, this game, does not stop for having missed missions in the chronological order of assignment .... there are few games where the choices / actions made are irrevocable and the failure to follow the missions in succession means to get stuck in the game irremediably, but this game is not among those, because they thought it with a performance for a prevalent public of children from 10-17 years (unfortunately), that is, that does not stop for the choices made (whether they are random and without plot logic or following the plot)

the best advice - delay doing the main plot quests as long as you can.

Do every other quest first, except for:
bounties
exploring islands.

When you run out of actual quests (except for bounties / exploring), then and only then do a main quest step.

that main quest may then unlock other side quests.

do all those other side quests, before you do the next step of the main quest.

also - probably important to have level scaling (up only) turned on :-)

Yea, that was the plan - until I didn't follow the plan. And got promptly punished for doing so. It is not a terribly big deal, but I figured it might be valuable to the devs to know.
