I can't talk to the Apothecary during the main quest. This is most likely due to me having encountered him before. When I returned for the quest, I had to fight the big guy once more, but the Apothecary never leaves his "scared" animation. A quick search says this can be fixed by reloading a save before ever interacting with the NPC, but let's be honest, I'm not about to reload an 8 hour old save.
Is anybody aware of another possible fix? Or do I have to wait for a bug fix to continue the main story?
Things I tried:
-Restarting the game.
-Reloading the area.
-Doing another quest.
-Resting at camp.
