I am still limping through my first playthrough because of how motion sickness this game makes me. I am on Emmrich’s personal quest “Sacrifice of Souls,” and it goes fine until you take the key from Manfred. Then the interaction dialog doesn’t show up on the door so you can open it. It’s impassable now, and I’m pursuing the emmrich romance and want everyone to be Hero of the Veilguard before I go to the end game.
Try to repair the game.
(EA app: My Collection > Click on the three dots on the game cover > Repair)
(Steam: Game Library > Right-click the game > Properties > Local Files > Verify integrity of game files.)
I have tried this. I have also tried reloading at different points, completing other quests first, etc. Right now I’m reinstalling the game entirely.
I have a save editor that I could use to force advance the quest but there’s no information about what checkpoints IDs I should use so I haven’t messed with it. The only mod I’m using (through Frosty) is the Centered Camera mod, because I can’t play the game otherwise because of motion sickness.
Additionally I have now tried it with the newly-installed game, and with the Center Camera Mod disabled. Completely vanilla game. Still doesn't work.
I can't remember if there are any additional steps required for this quest.
What you can try is a save that is older than the one you are currently playing.
