(BUG) Prospector's Folly: Mountain Ascent - Can't Proceed Game

Product: STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor
Platform:PlayStation 5
Summarize your bug Reproduction Steps: 1. At Prospector's Folly - Mountain Ascent, the location with the 2 Storm Troopers behind a green laser wall. Talk to them, Jedi Mind trick one of them to lower the laser wall. 2. Have double-bladed light saber wielded, accidentally kill both Storm Troopers. 3. Wait a bit, then action (R3) button pops up in the area where the other Storm Trooper should have been alive. 4. Start the conversation. 5. Then "Unexpected Error You seem to have bypassed certain story elements. Continuing to play from this point may encounter issues. If you choose to proceed anyway, loading any future saves from the Title Screen will give you the option to reload prior to this point. Reload from last save point? 6. So I did the recommended, and clicked Load. 7. But the last 'load' time was already saved in the time of the bug, so now there is no way to proceed. Expected: 1. To be able to load at a time where the bug hasn't taken place, and start the sequence again, where the Both Storm Troopers are alive with the green laser wall. Actual: 1. Both Storm troopers are dead, and no dialog can take place to open the second laser wall behind the dead storm troopers.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)

I have restarted the game, due to this bug. Completely disappointed and upset from wasted time.

    Something similar happened to me. I got through the conversation with the two Stormtroopers, however, but had to leave to work right after the conversation, so I backtracked to the save point just outside.

    Resuming my save just a few moments ago, however, I cannot open the opposite side gate for whatever reason. I remember the prompt being there before I left, though, and I think I even opened the second gate before saving but I don't remember for certain. 

    EDIT: I also have to mention that I did NOT receive a warning like OP did.

    A few days later, but I don't think that gate is actually meant to be open. I'm just going to say that you get an ability later on in the game that allows you to pass through green laser gates.

    Not to mention, that area is not a crucial zone; you didn't even need to restart the entire game to proceed further. Instead of restarting, I chose to just walk away after seeing the main objective lead me elsewhere. I don't know why the game told you that you were bypassing story elements, but Mountain Ascent is not a story zone at all, at least not where I'm at (and even if it were, you would only be able to proceed after getting the ability to pass through green laser gates)

    Right, yeah I realized that once I kept playing the game. But it was still weird to get that pop up from warning, which made me think I messed up. Oh well, I ended up starting a new game with "Story Mode" difficulty to catch up easier, so it wasn't trivial to get back to that point. Thanks for your comments.

    At the terminal after first green sheild, BD can slice it.  However...Cal was muttering something during it and the slice didn't work for me.  So frustrating as now the shield is still up and can't progress.

    Hey relik03, dont read the other comments, because they are spoilers. But Short answer, its not a bug, just leave that area, and continue to do the story. No need to restart game.

    I had something similar. However, I couldn't even get passed the hangar gate. When I fast traveled next to the hangar there were no enemies and the gate remained shut. I fixed this by just killing myself by repetitively falling off the nearby deck.

    By the way, you are only intended to proceed further in this area if you are going through story. The story line objective's last word being "observatory" (don't want to spoil it).
