Siegmeyer of Catarina Bug (Won't Talk)

[Fox]

When will they ever fix this? I don't usually talk to him for the first time outside the sen's gates, I always talk to him on that ledge near where the boulder rolls, But it always bugs and he won't speak, I know he isn't important, But i still want to get the extra items, I am always forced to kick him off the ledge and reload to get his ring, Because there's just nothing else to do

Is it bugging like this if you talk to him before opening the gates to Sen's? Many NPC quests in the Souls games require you to speak to the NPC/complete the current stage of their questline before reaching certain key points in the game. If you fail to do so before moving the main story forward, their quest may auto fail and they won't be interactable (often they don't even show up in their spawn points when this happens), and you'll have to wait until you reach the next NG cycle or start a new character. Siegmeyer is no different, as if you don't speak to him before ringing both bells, you won't be able to start his questline. Same is true if you fail to interact with him at any point later in the game; inside Sen's, Anor Londo, Firelink, Blighttown, and Izalith respectively, before completing the next main story beat.

I personally have never had an issue when going for his questline, so if the solution of making sure to talk to him before opening Sen's gates is not what you're looking for, I'm afraid I may not be much help in the matter.

Eh, I never talked to him before ringing the bells and always start the questline in Sen, so...

It might be a thing where it works sometimes, but not others. The easy fix is to just talk to him before Sen's, in which case there definitely shouldn't be an issue, at least in my experience.
