I've run into a little problem (maybe), and I can't find anything online about it so here I am. I've played through 1.7 and it is awesome. The HK factory was crazy hard, but that's why there are cheats Anyway, I wanted to go back to a save before Atton battles Sion, so I could experience the whole death scene bit. Unfortunately I guess I don't have the option to let him fail. Your lists detailing the restoration give me the impression I should be able to let him die. What is the deal? The game prompts me to load a saved game just as usual if Atton runs out of HP.
I have installed:
Official patches
1.6
1.6 fix
1.7
Some Angelus6 retexture packs
Exile's Atris Style Robes
and have re-colored a few heads and clothes.
I've played extremely lightside female and I'm sure I have high influence with Atton (although I doubt that matters).
Also, I started playing this round with only 1.6. I updated to 1.7 before going over to the Harbinger. I had my fingers crossed that it would be ok, as I HATE that darn mining facility and didn't want to restart. There haven't been any other problems (unless you count Mira floating at the wrong height when Hanharr tries to choke her on Malachor).
I'm planning on playing through again, but was going to mix things up with darkside and a gender switch. If I have to play through lightside female again to catch the melodrama I will, but I want to make sure this isn't normal or an error that will repeat unless I fix something before restarting. Thanks.
