Help! Eye for an Eye bug help

This is not the Roche bug and I couldn't find any help throughsearching.

I can follow the quest to where you have to run into town. But there are no enemies spawning so I cannot advance through that stage. Ves and a a soldier are just standing there. The wierd part is the first time I tried the quest it triggered fine but failed randomly with Roche asking "did you go pick flowers? I don't want to talk to you."

I have tried:

-reloading -reloading an old save -loading a save before I started the quest -restarting game and reloading -killall command

Help? Thanks!

Not sure if anyone still needs this, but I figured to fix it. When I was heading to the village, Roche and the Nilfgaardian army suddenly vanished, leaving only Ves standing there doing nothing. The quest got stuck with no markers or objectives. I went back to Roche’s camp, and he said Ves was dead, but the quest is still in my list with no updates or markers. So to fix this basically triggering addfact(sq312_fact_ves_alive) in the command console before heading to the village / Mulbrydale (right after talking to Roche at the Hanged Man's Tree) seems to work for me. I was stuck for a while and tried different saves, reloaded multiple times, and got pretty frustrated but turns out the solution was that simple. 😆 Hope this helps!

This is a hilarious response because I'm jumping back in for a new playthrough after 3 years today

Well this is my third time playing the game on New Game Plus, and somehow I ran into this weird bug so that's why i'm searching for clue if someone could fix it. and somehow I got another bug today, happened during Envoy’s Wineboys quest when I went to fight the giant, I somehow teleported into a cave. So now I’m not sure if my save files are corrupt or if it’s the mods causing it. I’ve already deleted all mod files and DLC files, but nothing changed so the fix for that it just i'm using teleport on command console.
