Hi folks,

Has anyone else had any problems completing Oskar's quest in Act 3?

I like the idea of this quest, but have found its execution massively frustrating at times, and now I'm stuck.

Quest commentary and specific issue detailed in spoiler tags below.


I found getting through Lady Jannath's house to the attic tedious, having to walk each of my party members through individually in turn-based mode due to constant combat. Plus the first time I visited I didn't have any way of removing curses so I kept getting blasted by those skulls. (There may well be another way of dealing with them than Remove Curse, in which case grrr!!!)

And then having to slowly walk through the house again as more poltergeists had spawned while I was away getting the item to destroy the possessed portrait just added more frustration on top.

But the final straw was after destroying the possessed portrait, when the spirit of Oskar's lost love appeared and then just stood there doing nothing. The journal said she'd gone to find Oskar but she hadn't, and if I go and try to talk to him or Lady Jannath then I can click on them but nothing happens.

Did anyone else have better luck? Is this just user error?
