Starfield Echos if the Past Glitch (PS5)

Discussion

For anyone who is doing this mission and like myself, was very frustrated when this mission glitched right after the first conversation after I landed on the planet, to go to the “Lock” jail, just to have find out “Delgoto” won’t even move.

Do not waist your time trying to turn off mods or restarting your PS5, or many other ways online says will work. After 2 hours of trying stuff, I figured out a way to fix this issue.

Go into first person view and equip your gun, then hit Delgoto with your weapon, not shoot it, don’t waist the ammo. Just keep hitting him with your weapon until you get him to the door. Yes this will be a little tedious and take a few minutes, but compared to the amount of time i waisted trying to figure out different ways to fix this glitch, this was much faster and actually worked.

Now i cleared the way to the door, killing all the enemies that pop out of the ground first then pushed him right up to the door, then the conversation happened and you can go inside.

Now once inside for me the same thing happened, he wouldn’t move again, so once again I hit him down the stairs and into the open area, then he triggered and started walking and talking, and we were attacked.

After this point the mission works like normal, and i did all this in less then half the time i waisted trying to find other ways to fix this issue, and since im playing this on PS5 and not PC i didn’t have the console commands to skip this mission, and like many others, had to do this the hard way.

It does work, just hang in there and hit the dumb npc with your gun and move him along, you will be glad you did, and did not waist time like me, searching online and getting no where.

Good hunting my friends, take care. 👋
