Cross-eyed inquisitor during speech

Hello lads,

my inquisitor has some "strange" animations during out-of-dialogue monologues, when he turns his head slighty upward and make a strange cross-eyed grimace, like there is something screwed up with an eye focus during these speeches. For example when I explore something regarding a quest and inquisitor has something to say about it.

This bug occurs during ALL inquisitor speeches, which are pretty often and inflicted my both playthroughts (female elf and male quinary). Problem persisted even after I reinstalled the game.

DO you know what may cause it? I could not find any information about this glitch online, so it probably affect either only me, or it is a rare bug.

I also tried different vsync options and framerate limits, but those did not caused it.

Regards

PS: grimace and cross-eyes looks exactly like on that picture I added (not mine and that one is during normal conversation, but the grimace glitch looks exactly the same)

    Hey @rulerkelso ,

    Thanks for trying the repair and reinstallation to see if it helps this issue. If it's still happening this seems to be a Visual issue that I can pass along to my team. We may have to experience this in your game, I do know DA:I hasn't had updates for a while so we may not know when one would be available. For now, continue playing the game normally and if you run into any other issues let us know.

    @rulerkelso Wanted to see if this was still happening in the game or if it was just at a specific point? If it is a visual issue we can try running a repair via Origin and see how the characters act.

    1. In Origin, Select 'My Game Library'
    2. Find the DA:I, Right-click on the tile (while the game is NOT running)
    3. Select the repair option.
  • Hello, thanks for your answer.

    Yes, problem is happening everywhere in the game, where inquisitor has some speech during gameplay (when he/she says something about quest progression or examination of something) . Normal dialogues and cutscenes are fine. It is noticeable only when helmets are turned off so maybe others did not noticed this little glitch unless turn around the camera to look at character face.

    Problem persisted after i "repaired" the game. As I mentioned, I even reinstalled it completely. So it looks like it is problem in the game itself, or maybe grapic drivers can cause it? Which does not make sense to me.

    When I played this game long time ago and dont remember having this problem before, even though i played without helmets and often zoomed in character when he had these speeches as im doing now

    You can try to reproduce the glitch in your game, maybe you has it too and dont know about it🙂
    . Just try any quest where the inquisitor has some remark about and check his/her face. These remarks are pretty often.

    PS: this video I found also shows the problem, so it obviously is not only on my side.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6l7Afy92bs  for example see at mark 11:17 when he reads the book and his inquisitor has a monologue on that matter. THis is exactly the problem me has too. The grimace is more obvious on smallish elven character Im playing now than on a quinari. but it is the same glitched eye focus.

    Checked another youtube video from other player and also saw that his character turning head slightly upward during gameplay monologues althought he probably did not noticed it.
