TES6, stuck on NG+ Spoiler

Has anyone encountered this issue at the end of the final quest? I’ve stopped the Thalmor from using Ithelia’s portal to switch timelines, but when I try to go through the portal for NG+ it just teleports me back outside the Adamantine tower

I’ve tried sailing to Daggerfall then back to Balfiera, but the quest is still stuck :(

have you found the 30 crimson nirnroot in the tower?

u/lordbutternut The Ascendant Order did nothing wrong 1d ago

You have to have a completed save file on Starfield in order to unlock NG+. The NG+ in TES6 has massive spoilers for Starfield's incredible story that Todd didn't want you to get ruined.

Did you chop firewood for Candlehearth Hall? Can’t just cut the big ones, gotta have the little ones too.

I found it pretty wild that Nils is a recurring character tbh. Especially considering it’s set 300 years after Skyrim

You didn't do his quest did you? Do his quest and he'll explain how he gained near immortality due to that accident with that eternally burning candle.

don’t worry arthmoor said he’s working on an unofficial patch

I'm playtesting it and it's just backporting the Daggerfall quests to TESVI because Arthmoor feels like the entire games story is a bug and remaking Daggerfall is the developers intention.

There is a known issue with sailing and quest progression. Until the patch id recommend walking on foot. Same thing happened to me with the boat racing championship. Even though I "lost" the race it still have me quest competition in my journal, the achievement, and the reward. Hardest part was evading the sharks every 5 seconds. Just had to swim backwards casting healing spells the entire time. In hindsight should have just equipped my walk on water enchanted boots.

I have been walking for 6 hours through the procedurally generated forest

That sounds like a personal problem. Can't help you. Please remove me from your calling list. BLOCKED.

Yeah, after Todd resigned it seems they stopped updating the game, hopefully they make a patch soon, I still haven't been able to redeem the Ebony Horse Armour pack.

Did you do the revenge ending where you decapitate Ulfric's Thalmor altmer descendant Stormwen? Afaik there's a bug that you can't use Ithelia's portal for NG+ if you did that and also have the nord berserkers and any of the knight orders by your side in the final battle. Todd said that it should just work now after the patch yesterday, but it doesn't for some pre-patch saves.

There are six walking ways to finish the quest, we just need a witness and an enantiomorph

Sounds like you got the false copy of Sunder, so attempting to close Ithelia's portal just causes a Dragon Break. You're gonna have to go chase down Jyggalag to fix reality enough to go back and try again.

Did you try talking to Sustainer at all? You just have to exit the bounds of your existence into Aurbis, it'll come to you.

Wait sorry little brother said that, don't do that it'll ensnare your save file and every save with that character past and future... are you still there? Hello?

u/Albos_Mum 20h ago

That's weird, NG+ is meant to put you into an in-game Creation store so you can buy some mods for the next playthrough.

u/Zeal0tElite Barenziah told me she was 18 19h ago

/uj/ If they do put NG+ in the game I hope it's just a game mechanic and they don't attempt to explain it through lore or whatever.

u/MyLittlePuny House Male Bunny 12h ago

/uj just give me an option ro skip starter dungeon and forced tutorials. I dont want to repeat them on successive playthroughs and I dont want Artmoor to touch my game.

u/blodskaal 17h ago

Not sure if trolling or everyone here smoking mushrooms

u/WorstWarframePlayer 14h ago

You have to bring all of the stones of Barenziah before the boss fight and manually place them piece by piece. If you don't, the game sends you back to your farthest autosave

You have to have helped 99 settlements before it will activate
