Product: Immortals of Aveum
Platform: Steam.
Which language are you playing the game in? English.
How often does the bug occur? Every time I get to the Mindwalk cutscene with Thaddeus in Chapter 10.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I find it every time I play Chapter 10, no matter if I start from chapter start or quit and reload.
What happens when the bug occurs? I reached Thaddeus in chapter 10 and we started the Mindwalk (sp?) cutscene. After the Hand of Sandrakk showed up and killed Thaddeus, when I got control of the game again I was unable to reload my sigil, fire my sigil, sprint or run. I could use a health stone, I could change my offhand thing (I forget what it's called, the whip/limpet/red spellbreak thing) though I couldn't use any of them. I thought this was a glitch, and tried to reload. No checkpoint save available, so I started from the chapter start. This time, when I got to Thaddesu and we started the mindwalk and I couldn't even get through that. The second time I tried it, I was unable to step off the final small platform and follow Thaddeus when we starts the Aristreya backstory where he conjures an image of Aveum and Jak mentions how small the wound looks that far in the past. I have updated my drivers, verified the integrity of the game files via the Steam app, and tried again from the chapter start. Now, every time I get to the Mindwalk I cannot get off the platform to follow Thaddeus to the final scene.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see the cutscene, and be able to fight all the enemies while chasing the Hand after she kills Thaddeus.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No, it happened the very first time I got to the Mindwalk scene but only the first time could I get to the end where Jak starts to chase the Hand. That was when I realized there was an issue as I coulnd't do anything but walk, change my offhand, and use a health crystal. I don't know if it effected my mana crystal usage, as my mana was full. It did tell me that my mana was full when I tried to use a mana crystal, as the game ususally does, but I can't confirm or deny if it would let me use one.DXDIAG. Full text file attached.

I tried what worked for @TestyGiblets , uninstalling the game and reinstalling, but it did not work for me. I am still stuck in the middle of the Thaddeus Mindwalk cutscene.
I attached a screenshot of where I'm stuck. I cannot pass the invisible boundary at the edge of the platform I'm standing on.
I'm having the same issue where I can't use any ability at all after the cutscene, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game, checked the integrity of the files and restarted computer and even restarted the chapter and it always ends up the same way that once Thaddeus starts talking my abilities stop working and they dont work at all after the cutscene ends

So... I had the same problem on PC, using the steam version.
I tried a bunch of individual things which did not work, but I in the last try, I did the following steps and got it working.
- I verified the integrity of the files (which passed ok).
- Loaded the game. Game starts in the blue "dream" telling you to "follow thadeous", you can still shoot and jump when you load the map, and only lose "combat controls" when you approach thadeous.
- Instead of going forward I turned around and I jumped onto the blocks behind me.
- Then I jump to the blocks on the left of thadeous,
- Then I jump in front of thadeous - his animation and speech did not trigger - and walked to the other area/platform area (even thought there was no bridge floor).
- I moved around and tried to walk back to thadeous but the invisible bridge floor was not there anymore. So I could not trigger his animation and speech.
- Thus, I "returned to main menu", and re-loaded the save again.
- Entered the blue area. As you enter you can still shoot. I shoot some random shots, and recovered life (C).
- Then I moved ahead and talked to thadeous, but as he was walking I tried to always be in by his side - inside his range - so you "walk slow" automatically.
- As soon he was done with his animations and talking, I talked to him and selected the last option (to move on into the cutscene).
- Cutscene played, and "magically" after the cutscene ended, I could use the character properly and start the chase part.
I am not sure which of these made the difference. Bu if I were to guess, I would say: "stay right next to thadeous the whole time he is speaking". But something on this list made the "combat controls" to be reactivated after the cutscene.
Also, I never re-installed the game.
I tried what @elew posted and it did not resolve the issue for me. No matter how close I stay to Thaddeus, I get stuck and cannot proceed past where I indicated in an earlier post with a screenshot attached. Even when restarting the chapter, and jumping/switching weapons/reloading/using health crystals, no matter how close to Thaddues I stay, I get stuck on the last platform before hologram of Aveus comes up. It's the same spot as in the screenshot.
I just ran into this issue myself. Whenever the mind walk cutscene in Chapter 10 ends I regain control of Jak, but I can't sprint, jump or fire my Sigil. I've attempted this portion of the game three times but I'm unable to make any progress. Like OP I am also playing the Steam version. Going to try a few of the suggestions here.
Edit: verifying the files seems to have fixed it!
