Yes, the restore of the PS back to its original sequence has borked the record of what at least some characters have done, in a very similar way to that in which the China release patch did. I noticed it when I ran the PS version of the final story for the first time last night – after which my character’s log shows nothing beyond the start of chapter 7. I have plenty of other characters in suspect states as well, but no records to hand, as I type, of what they ought to be showing. I have at least one now showing “A Light in the Darkness”, though, which seems rather suspicious in context. But I suspect things will get sorted out in a patch or two.
Update
I’ve now been through my characters, and checked against my records (I’m an alt-alholic, and I have a spreadsheet with quite a lot of that sort of information accumulated, to help me, for example, take alternate paths through the PS). Because of the “dungeon” nature of the final PS episode in the past, I had quite a few parked at the “Victory or Death” episode (“VoD”). I also had two who had completed it (sessions with RL friends – I wasn’t interested in PUGging it, which is why so few of my other characters have completed it). Anyway – for the benefit of any dev who may find the information useful, I see the following in their respective Story Journals:
- Most of the VoD ones are correctly showing VoD (10 in total). One Complete is similarly correct.
- One VoD and one Complete are showing “The Steel Tide” (an episode that both did indeed do). They have in common the fact that, following the China release patch, they missed out on the sequence “Against the Corruption” through to “The Source of Orr” (my only two characters who did). I would strongly suggest that that may be significant.
- One VoD is showing “Cathedral of Silence”; I’d guess from the sequence in which my characters were created that she may well have been in the middle of that sequence when that patch struck (it’s certainly not beyond the bounds of possibility that she was actually on that precise episode) – but I can’t confirm that for sure; I have records of what character did what, but not when.
- One character on “What the Eye Beholds” is showing “Forging the Pact”.
- As reported above, a character who was on VoD, and completed the PS after the most recent main patch, is showing “Forging the Pact”.
The last two above were both created post-China patch, albeit on different accounts.
(The character I mentioned above showing as being on “A Light in the Darkness”, is indeed on that episode. Sheer coincidence that I chose to examine her.)
Other characters, all post China and on earlier PS episodes (including one on “Retribution”, which I think is in the grey area flagged up ahead of the recent patch as one to watch), are all currently showing the correct episodes.
. It looks that the progress is bugged. There is no way to active the story either. It is not click-able.
