Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Stuck in dialogue (Friends cantrip, Kagha, Druid Hall)

A glitch occurred when talking to an NPC (tested with Rath and Findal) in the Druid Hall after saving the tiefling girl: my MC got stuck in dialogue mode (bottom left buttons to change character, trade, attack etc appearing), but the NPC was no longer in dialogue. After a few tests I believe it has something to do with the "Friends" cantrip I had cast on Kagha earlier ending during the new dialogue with another NPC, causing her to become hostile to me, but not resulting in the combat it would otherwise - and instead abruptly ending the dialogue cutscene and freezing my character in dialogue limbo. What leads me to believe this is that if I leave the area, let the concentration end and go back to talk to the npcs, nothing abnormal happens.

Can't save and reload because the game thinks I'm in dialogue, trade and attack button don't change anything, leaving the hall with the rest of the party teleports the MC outside, but he remains the same, unable to move or do anything else.

Character in question is a lvl 3 half-elf bard, if that matters

(sorry if this is a known issue)

It happened to me as well and I don't think I had casted Friends.

Temporary solution: switch to another character, talk with an npc if you don't see the command bar at the bottom, leave the conversation. Use this secondary character now 'free' from the bug to kill your stuck character. Fast travel to camp and resurrect them through the talkative skeleton.
