It seems playing with old save still cannot get through the guard (you can talk but they don't move)
Well, not a problem as just few minutes playthrough
Seems just the guard in colden city don't move away
Aside from that the other bugs seemed to be fixed from my playthroughs though one of the signs, specifically the one in front of the road that leads to the village with the tent inn and the merchant who tells you to go south. that sign can't be read, you can't even interact with it to see where that road leads.
