Thanks for replying! But i've already completed "Blood Ties", and it's still not triggering my ability to continue my journal to start chapter 4. I've finished all the quests available in Chapter 3 already and am just trying to start Chapter 4 to continue playing the game

So, just to recap: You completed blood ties, and you also completed the temple in chapter 3, correct?
Did you exit on the world map recently? If you got the human/sapient transformation from the temple, and you completed the "blood ties" quest, you should have gotten a message when entering the world map (it's the usual reminder to go visit your uncle's desk to start a new chapter).
I *think* it's possible to complete blood ties without exiting on the world map if you talk to Alpharius last, and that would stop the reminder from triggering until you go on the world map again, which is necessary for the option to advance the chapter to become available.
If this isn't the case, you might want to upload the savefile on a site like MEGA, so I can take a look at it, and figure out what's wrong.
