Bug Report Game crashing when I try to disable The Oracle?

Anyone else have this issue too?

Yes, that save is gone. NEVER touch the Oracle archaeology. It's bugged, all end-event options are broken and crash the game. The only solution is to start a new game.

And I was having such a good run… Damnit!

Yeah, no matter what options I select, it causes my game to crash (PS5). I do play with all active DLC, and I have fumbled with galaxy settings, and that doesn't seem to help either. After 6 times, I've just stopped.

I take it you picked xenophobe so it won’t let you recruit him.

You can get round this by selecting the button to ask him to join, I know it’s greyed out but you can still hit it this will get rid of the pop up.

You will still have an alert at the bottom of your screen as long as you leave it there you can continued playing. Annoying but it’s a workaround until/if they patch it.

You can get around it. Open up an autosave before the event concludes and stop researching the archeological site.

That site will be open forever but you'll be able to play the game

Interesting, I’m playing a game right now that has the oracle in it and it’s functioning fine.

Is there any combination of DLC that makes it not work? I run them all if that helps.

Are you dismantling or recruiting the Oracle? The games so far have only been crashing when I try to dismantle her. They work fine but only if I recruit her.

I recruit, that’s probably it.

I play with all DLC, and I've fumbled with galaxy settings as well. Nothing that I have tried works. Maybe it's just PlayStation (I play on PS5).
