Any update on this issue. It keeps happening in my game when there are a lot of enemies on the screen. A few enemies will become untarget-able (usually with some buff/debuff icon on them.) The enemies will follow my group on screen in a slow fashion, but since they can't be targeted I end up stuck in combat mode and not able to loot, leave area, or otherwise interact with environment. This is extremely frustrating for me because I either have to load an older save before the fight in question, or choose an option that does not end in a fight if fight starts from dialogue choices. I do really enjoy playing the game and any feedback from devs would be greatly appreciated.

I am having the same issue multiple times. I sent files in on previous post on the 16th, but did not hear from developers. Hopefully, they will address your post and/or take a look at my save files as well. "appears that certain debuffs on an enemy prevents the ability to attack that enemy and consequently you can not end combat. It has happened a few times and I have had to load an older saved game. This last time it happened was during a ship fight. The last enemy that had a "marked prey" debuff on him could not be hit/engaged so I could not complete the battle. The enemy just stood there and I could not target him/attack him. This also happened a few more time, but I did not recognize the debuff symbol that the enemy had on him. I play the game on PC using steam."

Hi Developers, This is a game breaking bug for me as I am not able to continue when I can't end combat. I hope this will be addressed. I absolutely love the game and I think you all did a great job with it.

Hi, it appears that certain debuffs on an enemy prevents the ability to attack that enemy and consequently you can not end combat.

Hi, I have cleared all three levels and yet I am unable to open adra portal to complete the poko questline. All I can do is interect with the magnifying glass tooltip thing on the Crystal in the third floor?

Hi, I am not able to activate the adra portal in the Engwithan Waystation level 3. I have cleared all three levels. Am I missing something?

Thank you for the additional suggestions AstralWanderer and Bear. I used the the tool to remove the bundled software and I have tried running the game disconnected from the internet, with anti-virus disabled, and all sound card items disabled. I have also checked on all of my drivers for the most recent updates. I have an older video card that I may try to swap into PC to see if that makes any difference...

AstralWanderer, I did disable sound card in device manager and my PC still froze up (although I was able to play for a little bit longer. I have not had a chance to try and play in safe mode yet... Thank you for the suggestions:-)

Archaven, I appreciate all of the info you provided and will work to try to isolate the issue by ruling out all of the hardware/driver/software possibilities you listed. This is the only game that I have seen a GPU temp spike while playing the game prior to system freeze. That being said, I will tell you that this game is the first program/game that I installed on a brand new computer that I purchased from Lenovo. My PC specs/dxDiag info is listed in earlier posts. The day the computer arrived, I installed Steam and purchased POE. After experiencing the freeze issue, I did download a few other games from my steam library and they all work fine. It is of course possible that I purchased a lemon, but wouldn't that impact other games and programs as well??? Either way I will continue to try and trouble shoot.

Both good points Khalid... It would be nice to have Obsidian/ the Devs keep a sticky/closed list of all the bugs they are aware of so it can help to manage the expectations of their customers.

Thank you for the ideas AstralWanderer. I disabled anti-virus and disconnected from internet and still had system freeze problem while playing the game for under 10 minutes. I also checked the event logs you mentioned and did not see anything unusual. This is crazy as I have a bunch of other games in steam that work fine. This is the only game that I experience this problem with...

Hi KTran, I think it is great that you have noted and are passing along this issue to the Development team in such a timely manner. I have noticed that other posts regarding bugs/Technical issues do not get responses from someone on the development team. Does that mean that they are not being passed along? For disclosure sake, I do have a post in this forum regarding a bug/technical issue. I am asking because their does not seem to be a clear cut way to get game issues addressed for people that have purchased this game. Is their any other recourse beyond trying to get a refund from the vendor where the game was purchased? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Is this issue going to be acknowledged/addressed in a not so distant patch??? Bueller....... Buelller....... Bueller Classic scene (quote) from Ferris Bueller's Day Off above... Teacher Calling attendance

So we are basically screwed... I am having a similar issue with my system. Here is the thread I started earlier today: https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/76574-computer-freezes-up/ Any comments from Devs/Obsidian regarding this GPU overheat issue would be greatly appreciated...

Thank you for the reply... My Video Card is a: AMD R9 255 2GB I did update all drivers. The temperature was in Fahrenheit - 133 F is about 56 degrees C. Not sure if that is running too hot While the game is not playing and I am typing this response the temp is holding at 90 degrees F

Here is the output log and another dxDiag from the last time my PC froze up. GPU temp was at 133 F This issue is driving me crazy. I do not understand how the computer I have can not handle this game??? As I stated earlier, I am using a brand new PC with what I think are respectable hardware specs that are definitely within the system requirements for the game??? How do I forward this to Obsidian tech support??? output_log.txt DxDiag2 - POE.txt

I ran MSI afterburner and logged: 1st cpu went to 125.6 F when computer locked up. I had vsync turned off and set everything to lowest in video settings... dxDIAG info in earlier post with PC/ video card info...

Bump... This makes the game unplayable so I hope it will be addressed. I am looking forward to diving into the game...

Here is the DXdiag for my system.... DxDiag - POE.txt

After playing the game for short periods of time (5-20 minutes) my computer freezes up completely and all I can do is manually shut my PC off. (Control-alt-dlt or windows button does not work) I tried the cmd line MSAA 0 option. I tried changing POE file to run as ADMIN in Steam Folder Specs: Brand new Lenovo Erazer 315 running WIN 8.1 Processor: AMD A8-7600 Radeon R7, 10 Compute Cores 4C+6G 3.10 GHz RAM: 12 GB System Type: 64-bit Operating System, x64 - based processor not able to attach log issues or run DXdiag when issue happens becasue PC completely freezes up
