So I was in the underwater labyrinth, and got poisoned by one of the plant monsters. Then, I found the lady of the sea, and during the dialogue with her, I kept taking poison damage, and seemed to die during the dialogue, though the dialogue continued. After saying farewell, she used her attack that I guess is supposed to kill, but nothing happened except for the lady turning into a large white square. I was able to use a healing potion on myself, and continue the game. However, now whenever I die, no matter the location, the game bugs out. Every enemy freezes up and I'm stuck at 0 health, but I can continue moving around as if I'm still alive. I can heal myself at this point, and the game will continue as if nothing happened, but it essentially makes me immortal as long as I have a healing potion. Is this a known issue, or any way to fix it? Honestly haven't been able to find anything else about it online.

Hi Forevealuna31,

I've just sent you a friend request. If you like, you can send me your save file and I'll have a look at it for you.

Sent you a google drive link with the save file, since it wouldn't let me post it here. It's an odd bug since it's not breaking the game completely, it's just not triggering deaths properly when I run out of health, can still reload saves and keep playing just fine after I "die" though, just don't know if it will mess up any of the endings or anything else

Hi All,

I was able to fix this. I'm unsure why, but the save file saves the "Death Flag" of the character (I'm not sure why, since you can never save during death anyway).

The players "Death flag" can be set during dialog to 1, but the death function never actually runs. As a result, it looks like that all subsequent intended deaths get confused and the function never executes properly, thus allowing you to walk around freely after.

For anyone who runs into the same issue, you can edit your save file like so:

Offset: 0x4DD4
Change value to: 0

This should set you back to being alive.

Hope this helps someone.
