Figured as much and i posted another thread about how i explored and messed up the main quest so now i do not have that skill and i am in act 2 so now have to start all over.

Because larian should say NOT TO EXPLORE this game if you do then you messed up like i did and now after putting in more than 20 hours in one game i can not progress because of it.

Also now trying to get the word out there about this bug or issue so people don't waste time like me.
