Re: Envy Demon

I have a similar issue. You see, my party does load, but my characters (even my inquisitor) are like paralyzed, with their arms extenden and not performing animations...

    I am alos having this problem.  All of my characters are paralyzed like they are being crucified.  They can still fight, butthey move slower and there are no combat animations, which makes the battle too hard to complete.  Plus Blackwall won't activate his abilities..

  • I am having this problem too....characters are like paralyzed...anyone had any luck solving this???? Do they know about this problem?

    Set the graphic lower and reload. Solved the problem in my case.

    Same exact problem, characters stay in bind pose.

    Similar problems with my second playthrough. I went with the mages during my first playthrough and was pretty much bug free beyond some clipping issues.

    Playing on nightmare mode. I tried a wide array of graphical settings and nothing really seemed to remedy the issue other than persistence.

    By loading an old save repeatedly until the characters rendered right, I finally got them to work. Kind of.

    It seems that there are a lot of graphical glytches involving the area of the Envy demon fight, even when the characters aren't stuck in that da Vinci's Marcus Vitruvius pose.. A couple of times the character I was controling would fall through the landscape, sometimes the screen would go black but I could hear the fight continue.

    Eventually, after multiple saves, I got through the fight. However, that was just the beggining of the problem.

    Whenever I crossed the threshold to talk to the templars after the fight, the screen would go black and the loading image showed up. A few times the conversation between the templars would initiate, but the screen remained black and despite the dialogue wheel showing up, I was unable to manipulate it and move on fromt he scene.

    Eventually, after having to fight Envy several times on nightmare (challenging fight when it was a roll of the dice on how many of my characters would be playable), I got the black loading screen, but rather than enter the fortress after loading and talking to the templars, I reapeared back in the center of the Envy fight area. From here I was able to again cross the threshold and talk to the templars.

    Really weird bug. I think it must have something to do with that threshold (instance or whatever) between the fortress and that courtyard area where you fight envy.

    I've found that if you alt-tab during the loading screen right before the boss fight, it seems to avoid that specific case. Worked for me 3 out of 3 times, at least.

    Okay, a lot of people in this thread had derailed the issue of the Original Post.

    Yes, there is the glitch where your party turns into puppets and so far a lot of you have figured out a work-around.

    For the Original Post, myself, and several other people--- we're stuck with NO party members. Hell, even if we had a puppet party, I'd at least have the hope of the "reload"-workaround.

    As it is, I'm stuck at the Envy Demon--- alone. As a Melee Rogue.
