1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Platform: PC via Xbox game pass
Issue: Fairy Godmother won’t allow hanging out
Platform: PC
Issue (Include NPC Name): Fairy Godmother and Nala have some sentences dubbed in english but my game is in french
Platform: PC
Issue (Include NPC Name): Fairy Godmother - when she speaks, sometimes I have an 'nph' written at the end of the sentences
Platform: Switch
Issue: I can't hang out with Wall-E. There is no option to hang out with him at all.
Platform: PlayStation issue: newly crafted medium storage chest won’t allow me to transfer items into them after update. Previously crafted storage chest working fine. Tried regular wooden and yellow colored chests.
Cant hang out with Fairy godmother and she was level 2 and shes my garden bauddy
Platform: NS Issue: Fairy Godmother isn’t showing up in the pumpkin house after entering.
Platform: PC
Issue: Fairy Godmother won’t allow hanging out
Platform: Switch
Fairy Godmother won't hang out. She always says "farewell, dear" when selecting the option and it never changes to the option to stop hanging out
Platform: Xbox One
Issue: Fairy Godmother won’t hang out if you are already hanging out with another character; this locks the other character to hang out with me indefinitely. However, I restart the game and am able to hang out with her while alone as a workaround.
PS5 - fairy godmother will totally reject me when I try to hang out and says "farewell dear" 🥺 it works the second or third time I try it. I'm not hanging out with any other characters when I try. She just doesn't like me 💔
Platform: PC
Issue: I can't hang out with Wall-E to complete the Pick Up Blue Flowers With Wall-E Duty.
Update: this resolves after finishing the questline where you collect pages.
Fairy Godmother is not asleep and has not completing her lvl 7 quest for hours (before her sleep, and during her supposed sleep).
Platform: PC
Issue (Include NPC Name): Fairy Godmother won't hang out with me when I ask.
Screenshot/Video: Video of her saying farewell and not coming with me.
Platform: switch
A lot of NPC heads are spinning and glitching
Platform: Xbox One
Issue: After showing fairy godmothers leveling animation to level 8, the game deadlocked and had to be killed.
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Issue (Include NPC Name): Fairy Godmother will sometimes refuse to hang out and instead respond with "Farewell, dear." as if told goodbye to instead.
Did some very minor testing and the problem only happens for me when she's too close to obstacles. (She's done this to me both in front of her own house and in front of the restaurant. Then I nudged her up against Mirabel's house, a big rock in the Meadow, and under a lamppost to see what happens. All of them caused her to reject hanging out.)
She easily agrees when she's got space around her and isn't standing too close to buildings or furniture, so my personal temporary fix is just to wait a minute or nudge her away from anything that could be bothering her.
Platform: PC/Xbox One
Issue (Include NPC Name): First quest from the Wall-E Dream Bundle is bugged for me. Wall-E leads me to the corner of the map and he stays there. Restarted the game and as soon as I load in, I see him traveling back to that same corner of the map and remains stuck there. Paid for this bundle and can’t even play the content.
Platform: Switch
Issue (Include NPC Name): First quest from the Wall-E Dream Bundle is bugged for me. Wall-E leads me to the corner of the map In the glade and he stays there. Restarted the game and he goes traveling back to that same corner of the map and remains stuck there. Paid a stupidly high amount of moonstone for this bundle and can’t even play the content so it’s just an overpriced skin for me at this point.
Same for me on Xbox Game Pass on PC. I ask her a second time and she agrees but I didn't make the connection to her being too close to an object so thank you!
Platform: Steam
Issue: Wall-e has disappeared from dreamlight valley and is no longer on the map or anywhere to be found
Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue (Include NPC Name): The issue with NPCs becoming a rock/block that you can't move them when you run into them has reappeared again.
- Just experienced this with Scar who is laying down on a narrow path.
- Nala is blocking me from leaving Remy's kitchen in the restaurant.
Switch: no purple moonstone chest appeared for me today.
Platform: PC
Issue (Include NPC Name): I can’t speak to the Forgotten to finish of their quest line (task in quest is Confront Forgotten)
Platform: Steam
Issue: Cannot hand out with Fairy Godmother. Asking her results in her "Farewell" dialogue. Actions performed while she's sitting at a table in Remy's restaurant.
Edit: Positioned player character in a diagonal direction slightly behind the Fairy Godmother and asked again, it worked. Confronting her from the front caused the wrong response.
Platform: PC (xbox gamepass)
Issue: The forgotten left 6+ hours ago and hasn't returned. She has not at any time appeared in the dark castle. Saw others who said the same thing, thought it was normal, now seeing that people have seen them in the castle or coming back and forth.
edit: after 6 hours she finally appeared in the valley. never was in the castle though
Platform: Xbox One
Issue: Wall-E no longer exists in the valley. I'm supposed to meet him after 6pm, but Wall-E is gone.
Platform: PS4
Issue: fairy godmother won't hang out with me and when prompted just says farewell dear
not sure if this is normal or not, but i thought i'd point it out
Platform: PC/Steam
Issue (Include NPC Name): Whenever I enter the cooking mini-game anywhere except for Remy's restaurant, if I have Fairy God Mother hanging out with me, it cancels the hang-out. I have to go find her and ask her to hang out with me again when I'm done. This only happens with her. I tried it with a few other NPCs randomly and they were still hanging out with me after cooking.
Platform: PC/Steam Issue: Ariel's legs clip through her dress when she walks.
Platform:PC/Steam Issue: grammar in quest update
latform:PC/Game Pass Issue: Ursula has suddenly disapearred from the valley since the update, I have seen her once but now I cant find her and can enter her house during the hours she is supposed to be asleep
Platform: Switch
Issue: The Forgotten explores the Village after midnight... until you talk to them. Once you do they're completely idle. Is that supposed to happen?
Platform: Switch
Issue (Include NPC Name): I have Scrooge set as a miner buddy. He got stuck on a rock node to give me a bonus material and has stopped following me around unless I move him myself so that he becomes unstuck.
Platform: Switch
Issue: Kristoff’s guitar sounds don’t disappear after I move away from him, even following me into other biomes
Platform: Steam on PC
Issue (Include NPC Name): Fairy Godmother won't allow hangout unless you ask her twice. The first time you ask she says Farewell, it does work if you ask her a second time (before speaking to another NPC)
Platform: Xbox One
Issue: Game locked up when I tried to talk to Scar im his cave.
Platform: PS5
Issue: 3 separate times i have tried to hang out with fairy godmother and it just doesn't work for me. The first time I thought it was just me clicking the wrong thing but then it happened again a little while later and then today i went to get her, made sure I pressed hang out and she just didn't follow me
Platform: Switch
Issue: Wall E has no option to hang out so I cannot complete the star path tasks with him. I have 2 quests going for him at the same time.
Platform:PC. When stitch goes to Remys restaurant he never has a dish above his head. This has happened multiple times. He has not had anything since the update
Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue (Include NPC Name): I have Buzz as a forging buddy. When I harvested from a cocoa tree he stopped moving after giving me my bonus ingredient and will no longer follow me until I move him myself.
Platform: PS5
Issue (Include NPC Name): The Forgotten appears to be hovering several feet in the air
Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue (Include NPC Name): I have Elsa as a mining buddy. When I was mining in Frosted Heights, she got stuck on the first node and wouldn't follow me around anymore. I had to move her myself in order to get her unstuck.
Im having issue giving fairy godmother the materials in bibbidi bobbidi oops? I'm playing on switch. I have restarted the game restarted the switch dropped all the materials and picked them up again got new materials except the lens nothing is working she doesn't pick up that I've got all the items though the quest tracking says my next step is to give her the materials
Platform: PS5
Issue: Um...The Forgotten is floating? Over the water? I know she's got wings, but can she fly?
Platform: Switch
Issue: Scar is immovable/causes me to get stuck. Discovered this while "hanging out with scar" while mining in the Vitalys Mines and couldn't walk past him in the narrow dead-end tunnels. Could not push him like you can with the other NPCs to get him to move. Had to ask him to stop hanging out and then wait for him to move on his own (couldn't fast travel since I was in the mines). If he's standing on an item that I want to pick up, I have to wait until he moves before it'll go into my inventory.
Platform: Steam
Issue: I was harvesting my pumpkins while hanging out with Fairy GodMother, but she stopped moving, i got far away so that she would drop the extra pumpkins, but after that, shes still not moving. Update: after me going the opposite direction from where i was in the pictures, she decided to start following me again...?
Platform: PC Steam ..Mickey doesnt sleep at his hours ..ever since the last update ..before it ..he always sleept from 10 pm to 2 am ..now he dont ..can even access his house
Platform : Xbox One S (Game Pass)
Issue : When I leave a home (NPC or mine,) all characters have returned to just outside their own homes except ones in Scrooge's Store or Chez Remy, or whoever I'm hanging out with, they'll stay with me.
2 screenshots included, one showing where characters are before entering a home and then showing them where they are when I exit the home.
Platform PC (Steam) Issue: Ursula has disappeared from the map and I can't complete the quest for Fairy Godmother
Platform Switch & PC: NPCs still have dialogue “Let’s go see your house!” and it doesn’t go away no matter how many times I select it
Platform: PS4
Issue: Fairy Godmothers Favorites of the day do not change. Its always Blue Marsh Milkweed, Marinated Herring and Mint Candy
(I do not have a screenshot)
Platform: PC/Steam
Issue: Fairy Godmother is barely gaining any xp from giving gifts or bringing her along for the job I gave her (gardening). It does move, but I am at level 7 and it's very minimal, making it very hard to level her up. It's possible this isn't a bug, but it's significantly different than I've had with other characters (I tested with Olaf, who is level 9, and had significantly larger increases.) The video has comparisons before/after picking 50 pumpkins with her.
Ps5
Kristoff is supposed to be asleep and this locks down the house but apparently i can come and go and he will be awake
Platform: Steam PC
Issue: Cant ask Wall E to hang out with me for the starpath quests because he is running in a corner when I start his special quest (that one for 4k moonstones)
Platform: PC | Xbox Game Pass
Issue: Mirabel is set as a harvesting companion, but she is only getting 1 star for every harvest & isnt giving me anything extra while hanging out with her. She is leveling up soooo slowly because of this!
(she is currently level 9, so she should be finding me extra things pretty frequently)
Platform: PS5
Issue: Fairy Godmother's favorite gifts don't change day to day. Every day she wants marinated herring, mint candy, and a flower.
Platform: PC
Issue (Include NPC Name): Mirabel is not visible on the map. I can't have a discussion with her neither can I hang out with her. A bit annoying due to the fact that I have to have a discussion with her twice for the Star Path
Screenshot/Video:
I can't even finish the first quest with her
Platform: switch
Issue: Ursula’s favorite gifts disappeared into this (photo). They are also gone from the collection menu as well as our friendship level and hangout bonus. Other characters affected as well, but these characters are only missing “favorite thing of the day” and have friendship level and hangout bonus unlike Ursula! ( Mirabel, stitch, Nala, Scar, Simba, kristoff, mother gothel, and the fairy god mother. )
Platform: Switch
Issue (Fairy Godmother, level 7): cannot progress past Wall-E giving the camera lense. “Bring the materials to the Fairy Godmother” is my next task, but it is not registering. Restarting the game does not fix the issue.
Platform: PC
Issue: Woody leans when I speak to him and shoots straight back up when the conversation ends, his animations will also play when he is leaning like this.
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Issue: when you're hanging out with companions and doing a lot of the thing they're set to boost at the same time sometimes they'll stand in place for a long time and won't move or give you the extra items that they intended until you talk and then back out, then they'll spit everything out that they were supposed to give all at once
2.
Platform: PC (Xbox Game Pass) and Nintendo Switch
Issue: seeing what the person below me posted reminded me that i have issues on both Game Pass and Nintendo Switch where characters will just straight up Vanish(TM) from the map. like not in their houses or in stores or anything, they're just gone. it's mostly happened with Ariel and Ursula but i've also had it happen with Merlin and other characters that i can't recall at this time. they eventually reappear but i don't think that's supposed to happen to begin with
platform: PC
Issue: when doing Wall-E's quest "Your Sunday Best" I have to talk to Ursula in her cave but she has completely disappeared from my game and is not shown anywhere on my map.
Platform:PS4
Issue: characters disappearing from where the map says they are, especially with fairy god mother.
Having issues with new wallie quest, I cannot finish it due To items not being recognized as put down.
My character glitches when moving and is starting to get worse
Platform: switch
Issue: a few days after I completed the main story/ quests, the forgotten is nowhere to be seen, I’ve checked the map, I’ve checked the dark castle and I can’t find them
platform: pc
issue: fairy godmother doesnt exist. no one is in her house, i havent even unlocked her yet or seen her
Platform: switch
Issue: fairy godmother won’t hang out, she keeps saying “farewell, dear”
Platform: Steam
Issue: Fairy Godmother won't hang out, she says "Farewell Dear" and won't follow me or gain any points from farming etc.
While doing Fairy Godmother's level 4 quest. The entire conversation with Anna was off. No other character had an issue.
It's because she's sick, the misspelling is intended to show that she can't enunciate normally
Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue (Include NPC Name): I'm not able to talk to the ||Forgotten|| today. Yesterday she wasn't stuck there, but between the broken pillars. However, I was able to talk to her there just not over here.
Screenshot/Video:
Platform: Switch
Issue: Wall-E is supposed to be hanging out with me but he's in Sunlit Plateau while I'm in the Forest of Valor. Fixed the issue by fast traveling from the map.
Platform: PS4
Issue: Sometimes the characters are glitching when they walk, as you can see in the back of this video it's Eric this time
Platform:PS5
Issue:The Pumpkin House is not showing up on the map even if I close the game. I don’t know what to do.
Switch: Bibbidi Bobbidi Oops level 7 quest for fairy godmother it won’t let me hand in the items she requested.
Platform: PC
Issue: Characters are inconsistent at saying their voice lines when you approach, talk to them, hang out, or stop hanging out. So far noticed Fairy Godmother, Buzz, and Ursula sometimes don’t say their lines. Eric never says goodbye to stop hanging out.
Platform : PC
Issue: Wall-E can't be a companion, the option doesn't show.
I have a bugged quest "Sproutin a story" on him that erased from my inventory the 22 pages needed to complete the final step of the book making it impossible to complete
Platform: Switch
Moana’s head is almost constantly glitching.
Platform: PC
Issue (Stitch + Prince Eric): I dont have a screenshot or video but basically Stitch playing his guitar and Eric playing his flute constantly follow me no matter where I am, even if they arent nearby. I've tried leaving the game and coming back however the issue still persists.
Platform: Switch
Issue: I can't find Ursula anywhere. I've checked the map, restarted the game, restarted my Switch, checked her house and all bodies of water
Platform: Nintendo Switch.
NPC with issue: Moana & Forgotten
Issue: Moana's Head shaking from side to side when the player is close to her when she doing her dance. Forgotten idle after speaking to them.
Evidence: (don't mind me cooking and check things in one of the video)
Platform: Steam PC
Issue: This bug is still in the game. I had to alt f4 because teleporting with the map does not work in vitalys mines. Also was not able to speak with Olaf while I was stuck there.
Screenshot/Video: Gif
Platform: PC/xbox app
Issue: There is no conversation bubble between characters who are obviously interacting with each other
Platform: PC
Issue: Stuck initiating conversation with Donald but no chat bubbles appear. Just me and him staring at each other. Had to alt f4 because I was not moving and couldn't open any menu.
Sad thing is we paid for the game and are basically sol til they decide to fix this may not be til September isn't that lovely nope not really
Platform: PC (Steam)
Issue (Include NPC Name): Forgotten spawned in night thorn decoration in forgotten castle, and i can't reach them
Screenshot/Video:
Platform : PC (Steam) Issue Prince Eric : He have a lag on the walking animation. Sometime, the NPC is prisoner of a loop. He start to walk. He try to reach a new place, but he teleporte where he start.
Platform: Switch
Problems:
- I play this at work and have to put it down for sometimes long stretches of time. When I pick it back up I'm surrounded by like 3-10 NPCs and it lags so badly
- I don't think Elsa's head is supposed to be doing this
Platform: Switch
Issue: NPC's keep fishing the wrong way on Dazzle Beach and in The Glade. I only got a picture of Mickey, but Goofy has done the same.
Platform: PC Steam
Issue (Include NPC Name): Fairy God Mother: Whevever shes inside Chez Remy and you ask her to hangout with you, She will say yes. But if you go back to click on her it asks her to hang out again. Not the normal "Let's hangout later" or things of that nature. Shes occasionally not came with me after asking her the first time either. I would have to ask her twice just to get her to hangout with me. Today it took 3 times and going out of Chey Remy and back in to get her to follow me.
Platform: PC Steam
Issue (include NPC Name): Most of the time when I see Eric walking in the background he tends to rubber band back along his path until he reaches his destination.
Platform: xbox
Issue: Ariel has been stuck at level 6 now for a few weeks despite multiple gifts and interactions
Platform: PS5
Issue: Game freezes occasionally when talking to the Fairy Godmother. Only way to set it right is to restart the game (thank goodness for auto save)
Platform: xbox game pass pc
Issue: im hagging out with godmother but she never follows me
Platform: Playstation Issue: Mirabel glitches,Ariels hair spazzes out and looks like shes headbanging to Heavey metal,Goofy walks in circles,Remy when taking photos goes into the floor.
Platform: PC
Issue: Fairy god mother wont hang out
I am also having this issue
Platform: Epic (PC)
Issue (Include NPC Name): Fairy Godmother continues to follow you after picking up a forageable item but stop moving with you until you interact with her after she picks up an item.
Screenshot/Video:
Platform: Switch
Issue: Can’t hangout with wall-e (button is gone so I can’t complete my starpath)
Platform: PC
Platform:PS4
Issue: Can't Ask Elsa to Hang out. She's fully maxed out level ten.
Also the ice things won't respawn it's been 8 hours since I broke them.
Platform: Xbox. Issue: NPCs are showing on the map as in their house but they are not there. Exiting the house and checking the map shows them as still in their house. Exiting the house again and they’re stood right in front of me.
Platform: Switch
Issue: I finished the dark castle quest and went into the black void thing and finished that part but when I was exiting to the portal my game crashed. I opened it up again and it said talk to the forgotten but the forgotten is no where to be seen or found and the black water void room is empty. I didn’t get the cutscenes and they’re not in their castle, black water void realm, or my valley and I just really wanna finish the quest
Also I have already contacted customer care but it’s been a week or 2 and I haven’t gotten a respond
Platform: PC
Issue: I'm stuck in the opening dialogue when you talk to Woody, and I can't do anything else.
Platform: switch
Issue: on the level 7 friendship quest with fairy godmother it won't let me give her the materials for the enchantment. Tried restarting the game and same thing :/
I can't get past fairy godmother first quest and I paid for this mess of a game
Platform: PC / Xbox App GamePass
Issue: Eric almost never plays his flute anymore.
Platform: Playstation 5
Issue (Include NPC Name): Anytime I try to go see someone that shows they're in their house, when I enter their house they're not in there. When I step back outside they're right outside their door.
Platform: All
Issue: Kristoff has a line, where i think he's suppose too say... " I wonder where they harvest their ice. "
But i definitely hear; " I wonder where they harvest their Eyes. "
Creepy... and i took me a while before i got it was about Ice and not Eyes... so i think the pronunciation must be a little clearer. (I am a European, Dutch. Don't know if it's an issue for English speaking people)
Platform: switch
Issue: Ursula never leaves her home since this update. I have her house placed in the middle of the water near the waterfall in the glade of trust, so in order to further quests and duties I am forced to move her house near the shore. If i do not do that i can just not talk to her since she stays in her home the whole time.
Platform: Switch
Issue:
Cannot 'Hang Out' with Fairy Godmother.
She even says goodbuy, but when i walk away she does not follow. If i then talk to her again, there is still the Option 'Hang out'. So somehow it just does not work.
Platform: pc (via Xbox)
Issue: Fairy Godmother sometimes has to be asked multiple times to hang out before she'll do it. She initially says okay, but then just isn't hanging out with you and doesn't follow you. She also sometimes starts hanging out with you for a little bit then stops without warning.
Platform: Switch
Issues (Multiple)
- Fairy Godmother doesn't always respond to prompt to hang out, sometimes she says "Farewell!" - have to ask 2-3 times to get her to hang out
- Not sure if intentional, but Fairy Godmother's favorite items are marinated herring, blue marsh milkweed, and mint candy EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. making leveling her up very tedious
- It seems like every time I have to go into Ursula's house to talk to her for a quest, she swims to the other side of her house so I can't interact with her and have to wait forever for her to swim back over
Platform: switch
Issue: NPCs are in their house according to the map, but when i enter their house they are not there. Instead when i leave again they are just standing in front of their door. Very annoying.
The only one who foes not change is ursula, but then again she just never leaves her home since the update.
Platform: PC
Issue: I have this same glitch in Moana, but also in Mirabel, I was sitting in a bench to recharge my stamina and mirabel was dancing next to me, she sat down, got up and her head was glitching.
Platform: Switch
Issue:
Speech Bubbles are gone. When you walk in the Valley, sometimes you see 2 Characters standing towards each other, making faces and moving like their walking, but the Speech Bubbles are gone with everyone.
Platform Switch
Issue: another NPC fishing in the wrong direction
Platform: Switch
Issue: Ursula has been missing from my valley for a couple of weeks.
Platform: PC Steam
Issue: Forgotten stuck behind a bush 😆
Platform: PC/Steaam
Issue: eric kinda rubber bands (?) when he walks. but this only happens when he's far away. also ariel's legs are clipping through her dress
When hanging out with a character they stand still for long periods of time and more often than not.. dont give extra items. I've lost out on a fair amount of gems, doubt I'm the only one but thought worth mentioning just in case 🙂
Platform: Switch
Issue: whenever I’m using a NPC to gather materials (mining, foraging, gardening, etc), the buddy stands there for awhile and then just randomly shoots stuff at me, which lags the game tremendously! It’s like a 10 second delay.
Platform: Switch and PC Game Pass
Issue: Ursula is nowhere to be found.
When giving NPCs their Orders or accepting an item/giving them an item that goes to a secondary screen like this it sometimes gets stuck and I have to close the game and relaunch
PC Steam
Some of Npcs like Stitch, Prince Eric, and Kristoff when they play their instruments its super loud, and it doesnt matter weather ur close or pretty far from them its super loud for no reason and i dont have the volume effects loud
NPCs that I have assigned to gardening freeze and won't give bonus crops. It is also the same for NPCs selected for mining.
Platform: PC/Steam
NPC: Ursula
Issue: Trying to complete Lair sweet lair and Ursula will not spawn, and has no icon on the map. Trying to fish in ponds and within the ocean to force her to jump to my player is only grabbing other characters instead (just bad luck but sad :c ).
The same can be said for trying to get her to notice my character in the edges of the ocean and swim back onto the map. I've restarted the game several times but she doesn't want her Cool Items™️ I made for her.
(Ill just stash the items in a chest for now, but I'm assuming her pathing needs to be reworked?)
Platform: PC/Steam - steamdeck
NPC: Ursula
Trying to complete A Space Rangers Reputation. Listen to Buzz and Ursula. She will not spawn anywhere on the map. Already placed her house. She used to appear in the ponds and ocean, but now she only hangs out in the cave. Tried the fishing trick, and zooming out to see if she in the ocean but no luck.
Platform: Playstation 5
Issue: Fairy Godmother refuses to hang out. I have to constantly ask her to hang out again and again and again till it finally registers.
Happened on both of my separate game files.
Platform: PC
Issue: not sure if this feature was removed but none of my villagers interact with each other with a chat bubble anymore. All they do is emote at each other
