  • I tried windowed mode after doing a repair of the game through Origins and it didn't work ☹️ Lemme know how yours goes though.

    Okay, so I got the game for PC today after playing for years on PS4. I knew being in the Fade like that wasn't normal, so I looked around the entire area, and I found a path on the far side. If you face the stairs when you first end up there, go behind it and a little to the left, and you'll see a pretty wide gap in the mountains that is climbable. Follow it, and keep going until you get over the next hill of the mountain. You'll find yourself overlooking the second broken bridge of the tutorial path(the one after the one you fall through with Cassandra). Go left and follow the path back to the first bridge. It will take some Skyrim-style mountain climbing, but you can do it. Once you go far enough back to the start, the screen will go black, and the game will begin as normal(though the opening cut scene you were supposed to get earlier WILL be a little glitchy until your first choice). This is obviously not a proper FIX to the problem, since you still have to trek back, and it does take a while, but if you spent hours on your character and don't want to lose them, this will at least save you from having to remake them, and give you a chance to save them.
