Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Technical & Gameplay Problems Glitch in Festering Cove cutscene

Just found the festering cove - upon entering, no one would speak. I was able to talk to Pooldripp with Scratch only.

But then after the cutscene started, it appeared to fast forward a little bit and then fell into the actual frame of the game. I can see what looks to be NPCs from a completely different part of the story/map. Looks to be a bunch of mindflayers with knights in gold armor. There's a tiefling hanging out far behind them, too.


Not sure if anyone else is experiencing this issue?

Apparently only Scratch is able to talk to Pooldripp. I tried unsummoning him and I no longer get a prompt.

Reloaded a save and made sure Scratch wasn't in party and that seemed to fix the entire issue.

Note to others: Do not have Scratch/Familiar out during Festering Cove
