    Hello all, first post here.
    Anyway, I'm having a bit of trouble fairly early on in the game, in Tarant.
    MINOR SPOILER: I have spoken to Thom Grak, delivered the message to Matt de Cesare, he killed the Assassin, and then he instructed me to follow him. Sadly, I was a bit slow, and now I can't find to where exactly I was meant to follow him. Walkthroughs say that he waits outside the club, but nope, he isn't there. I hope this isn't a big bug. Am I missing much if it is?

    Ah yes, and I do believe I have both the Unofficial and the Official Patches installed. Nothing else, however.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hmm, not that I can see. Providing the top of the screen is North, right East etc., there is an alley directly next to the Gentleman's Club on the South-West, but he isn't in there... Could you be more precise, please?

    That's the alley I ment.. Perhaps it is a bug then. I believe you should be able to see him when your outside the club. So It must be a bug.


    EDIT: Here's a poorly made picture, hope you can see :p It was more to the west than south-west though.

    Nope, he's not there. :( Not there or in the Gentleman's Club. Curses! Am I missing out on much?

    Only the coolest questline in the entire game, and possibly in the history of gaming.

    Actually, I'm not being sarcastic. It's a great quest.

    So, what can be done then? Werent there a guy who couldnt see the NPC from the L'anamelach questline? He sent someone his save and the person who tried it could see the NPC perfectly fine.

    Welcome to the forum by the way.

    As a probably futile attempt to fix this, reinstall the game and the patches and put the old saves in the newly installed game. :D

    That's totally your line Doggie. Cooto's stealing!

    I'd go for the jugular.

    I’m willing to go for the compromise.
    *kicks Cooto in the junk, then goes off to eat bacon*

    bacon grease is a beverage

    Hey! No kicking.. Or I'll steal your line and run off to china and tell everyone about it, and then everyone will start using it! And when you tell people that it's actually your line they will just laugh at you and walk away. How would you like that?
