DA2: Final romance scene not triggering!
First off, I play on Xbox 360 and have the latest patches installed.
I romanced Merrill throughout the game and everything seemed to be working fine until I got to the Last Straw. When you have your final companion conversations, during Merrill's it treated me as if I hadn't romanced her at all; the correct dialogue ("My love...") did not trigger. However, after the cutscene, when I clicked on her again, her little dialogue line still referred to me as "ma vhenan," so her romance flag still seems to be working, but the actual romance scene did not trigger properly.
In addition, I don't know if this is relevent, but during the other act 3 quest where one of your companions is kidnapped, Bethany was taken instead of Merrill. I had heard that your love interest is the one who is supposed to be kidnapped, but I thought it was just because Merrill was already in my party so that's why she wasn't taken. If I'm wrong about that, could this be caused by the same glitch as in The Last Straw?
I also double checked before I started The Last Straw and Merrill was still in my estate, so she was definitely romanced. I tried restarting the quest and uninstalling and reinstalling the patches, too, but that didn't work. What can I do to get the scene to trigger properly?
