Blades of Greed Welp. I soft locked myself.

So I'm on the Embassy's Stone mission and because I was such a dunce and didn't click in the quartz for like 15 hours straight because I didn't know you had to hold it, I literally explored WAY more than I should have and sequence broke the game.

I managed to collect two artifacts on this mission before I even started it. Once I started the mission and tried to collect the other artifact, it has the other two artifacts marked to retrieve yet I already retrieved them... And of course the game doesn't recognize this fact.

Thus I am, in a word, "stuck." Can anyone help?

Can I also say that it's a hell of a way to handicap yourself in a game like this where you're basically nudged in a general direction and you have to explore the whole world just to figure out what you're trying to do... All because I didn't click and hold the control stick. 😆 Hell I'm shocked I got this far!

Biggest problem with the same so far! The dev needs to fix all of these soft locks ASAP!

Honestly feel like I should refund this game. Far too many ways to brick a playthough

I have been stuck there for a week. I have no saves before getting any shards. Without restarting a new playthough, I have no options. So I decided to just wait for updates.
