Outoflives (talk | contribs) m (→Talking to Leon at guild house crashes the game: Adding reference showing that the GOG version is also affected. (Both are the "Gold Edition" and this may mean that only "Gold Edition" is affected but I don't know for sure.) Also updating some wording. (I've found that the crash occurs even when ending the conversation right away, before Leon makes his offer.)) |
