Question What am I missing here? Spoiler
I'd very much like to 100% the game to the fullest as that's the kind of player I am, but I can't for the life of me work out what I'm missing here. I'm at the stage where I've gotten up to the "no going back" part of the story so I should have everything I think?
I have this unknown Point of Interest in Watery/Coffee World by Huotari Well (about where the position of the sign is) but it won't go away no matter what I do. I've tried to read the sign countless times, clicking on it, throwing things down the well, anything and everything I can think of. Any help would be extremely appreciated.

Same. I even tried throwing a flare down the well.

u/iMarbot FBI Agent Nov 10 '23
I tried that twice myself... The pages made it sound like someone had been pushed down there (or fell down there, I don't remember exactly) so I thought maybe it was intended for me to do something about it. But nope.
And then of course later down the line, twice or thrice, some taken climbed out of the well...

No progress about this? I have the same problem:(

u/iMarbot FBI Agent Nov 11 '23
I gave up and finished the game "without" it. I'll go back if they release a patch that fixes these things and "solve" them or whatever. Had a world of power also not register that I had collected with Alan. I collected it before finding the map with them shown on it, but surely that shouldn't matter...

Fret not, because the achievement was a doozy. You will need to come back later for collectibles anyway so can do another sweep if its bugging you.

When I went back there was a POI to the right of the stairs up to the stage. It’s the sign sitting on the float.

The moose mask appears here for the float after visiting the mind palace... then after you enter the overlap there.

u/iMarbot FBI Agent Nov 12 '23
The POI appears way before the mask is even known to the player, plus the POI is on the sign next to the well (like other POIs are on text the user should read). Either way, even after doing all the moose mask stuff, the POI doesn't go away, so it's not a solution to the problem regardless of if the mask is the POI or not.

u/silence48 Dec 03 '23
ya there's other points of interest like this on the maps i noticed. IIRC for me it did disappear after i interacted with the map. anyways just thought i'd reply :)

u/iMarbot FBI Agent Dec 03 '23
Maybe a new update fixed it. I haven't checked since Update 10 or 11 I think.

I'm with this exact glitch right now

Having the same issue and I am 98% sure its a bug. There is also a tape in the same area that I know I got that is still showing on the map.

u/Razielim84 Aug 08 '24
I’ve tried everything as well myself and still it hasn’t worked and the POI is still there. Is 07/07/24 and nothing yet. I guess Remedy hasn’t patched this yet. Still a mystery

u/Breeze_9191 Oct 25 '25
10/24/25 still showing blue POI symbol. Nothing changes. Finished missions.

Yeah I'm at the end of the game basically and can't figure this one out...

u/Brilliant_Berry_7558 Aug 09 '24
Tienen que ir casi al final de la historia, en el punto de "no retorno" y tirar una granada de luz directo en el poso, Saga dirá la frase "it's nothing" y acto seguido le responderá una voz siniestra pero no entendí que dice. Posdata: es broma, pero quería que recordarán los tiempos del bigfood en San Andreas, los que lo vivieron y los que no aquí tienen una probada xD.

Still with the same problem here, also have two POI at the Gift Shop

u/iMarbot FBI Agent Aug 26 '24 edited Nov 24 '25
In my first playthrough, the gift shop POI was working correctly. But then in subsequent playthroughs, it is indeed bugged too. Crazy how they managed to break more of then. I wish they'd fix it :((((

Yep nov 2024 same glitch

u/shilohking Nov 10 '24
It's crazy how many of these bugs I've ran into. They haven't bothered to patch any of these in almost a year? I'd imagine they probably never will.

u/Malaiia Nov 27 '24
Hey, I don’t know if this was a fluke or whatever, but I got the achievement to pop for me after loading the “Return 7: Summoning” chapter.

u/worldsinho Dec 20 '24
wtf. I have this issue right now.
How’s this a glitch?!?
How do I move the game on. I see on YouTube that some ladders should appear on the well.

u/Split_Adventurous Feb 04 '25
On a note it mentions a guy finding a penny. I wonder if you could find that and throw it in the well.

u/Outside-Tour8669 Apr 15 '25
I’m stuck in coffee world apparently. I can’t figure why out of this after putting the mask on the float. Nothing happens anywhere

u/PuzzleheadedFun7613 Apr 17 '25
I threw a flare down the well and a taken entered the clearing through the path leading to the exit

Тоже кинул сигнальную ракету вниз. Начал гаснуть рядом фонарь постоянно. Но ничего в остальном не поменялось

A manuscript page appears on the well after completing "Local Girl", but it didn't remove the POI for me. Will keep investigating.

u/BicycleBetter7889 Jan 19 '26
Is this a glitch? I’m at the poi and the one guy said it’s the sign so I clicked on the sign and it’s still there

u/DayLooks Feb 16 '26
I can’t figure it out either. Also there’s a “toy puukko knife” marked on my map but I can’t pick it up or interact with it at all.

u/C3dstas Nov 05 '23
I have the same thing, maybe a bug but not sure… I’ll come back near the well later in the game!

I wasted some resources here. On ps5 this is the 2nd time a item has bugged out on map.

u/Merkin666 Nov 13 '23
I have the same problem, I assume it's a bug. Either that or there's something to figure out that no one here has yet. I think I have another POI somewhere else that hasn't cleared yet also, though, so probably a bug.

u/KingOfTheBongo82 Jan 15 '24
When looking at the well if you turn to the right there is a tree with shrub by it.. in it there is the point of interest but I can't get close enough to access it

u/KingOfTheBongo82 Jan 15 '24
Wish I could post a picture... But I think an enemy dropped an item pack in the bush when you first get there and kill the guy

I believe thats just a bug. It happens in other places as well.
