[Combined] Whisper - Offering breaks UI

I also had a very similar issue happen early on when I was trying to loot a chest that was guarded by a soldier. He killed me during the animation and then when I returned and tried to loot the chest or any other chest afterwards I would get into a state where the UI would not respond. I had to close and re-open the game to get it working again.

Hotfix #5 just landed. and I can confirm this is still an issue. I have got myself unstuck twice from this screen. The first time I did it, I thought hitting the xbox button (steam overlay) was the fix that got me unstuck. However, the next time it happened, I tried that, with no success.. but lots of frustrated button mashing somehow got me unstuck. I attempted both methods of closing the interface with the controller and the keyboard (escape).

This is happening for me as well – happened at 2nd Whisper in Black Trench and in the potion seller’s cave.

This bug still happening for me. Gets stuck into this menu,. You can still navigate through your inventory and puts the 0 marker bottom right of each item when you select an offering but does not reflect up the top and no buttons work to escape the UI state, whether it be to go back or offer the ones already clicked. Can confirm that this has happened at multiple whispers.

I managed to enter the Whisper offering menu while the loadout UI still active over the Whisper offering UI. I couldn’t do anything except going in the game menu which let me exit the offering UI. I don’t know exactly what is the trigger but it happened twice since the together update. I am using the gamepad simplified loadout.

I also had the increased vendor icons when zooming it, but it may have been fixed.

I can confirm something similar. I haven’t found the trigger of repro yet but, using a controller and opening the Whisper menu at a bonfire (same with the plague menu) I get no feed back/response from my controller input. the only way to move out of there is to open the map, then I can resume activity with the bonfire without issues.
Occurs 2/3 times.

Had this bug 3 times today

I’ve been reading this topic and can confirm the bug is still present 02-01-2026.

I can’t reproduce it, but it happened two times today for me.

Here’s my files

Thank you all for the reports. For future readers, no need to submit your files, unless specifically asked for them!

Either player can get stuck when using a whisper. A player has to open trade menu or strike the other player to get them unstuck. This has happens in single player and coop

Opening the “Offerings” panel while the “new Whisper” animation is running, leads to an unusable, layered interface that only a game restart fixes.

EDIT: I tried to reproduce it but it’s not the fast skip to the “offering” that’s causing it.

This should probably be in bug reporting instead of feedback

It should be in the bug report forum, “feedback” is just one of the tags.

Hey Ezrio,

I might have merged your post into the wrong one.

Is this happening when you guys use a whisper normally, or when you are “offering” to it?

Hello!

I’ve noticed several bugs when interacting with certain elements, where the wrong menu seems to open (or multiple menus at once). The main issue is that when this happens, I can’t exit the situation normally; I have to press Alt + F4 to close the game, as no other action works.

The situation that just happened to me was the following:

I had just arrived at a Whisper, and when I selected “Offering”, both the Offering menu and the Inventory menu opened at the same time. From that point on, I couldn’t do anything else — I was completely stuck.

Good evening!

  1. Description:
    Video of the bug: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRrr-cdOPKY

    (I can’t remember whether it happened on Hotfix 5 or 6, sorry!)

    Activating a new Whisper and going into offering menu by pressing “Make an Offering” button lead to HUD elements of Offering and Gameplay overlapping - quick menu with items and runes is visible in bottom left, as well as the inventory menu with offerings. Controller cannot be used to navigate through the menu as there isn’t an item selected, possibly connected to error prints in the Player.log:

    2026-01-30T15:51:06.963|X|5272||NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

    Keyboard and mouse can be used to navigate through the inventory. Selecting items for the offering makes them appear in the top bar with considerable delay. Selected items can be removed from the offering but the UI does not update.

    2026-01-30T15:53:02.811|E|5272||Tried to withdraw an item that didn’t exist in the priming area.

    Making an offering using keyboard and mouse fixes the issue, allowing for controller usage.

  2. Reproduction steps: not known;

    I have tried reproducing the issue for each new Whisper as it plays a unique animation that does not appear on subsequent interactions with Whispers, but sadly I have not found any consistent steps for reproduction.

It appears that I have a slight “luck” encountering these hard to reproduce bugs, guess it’s the curse of working in QA. Hope the logs help!

I’ve revisited a whisper to continue unlocking it for fast travel - not sure why, the game already told us that we could fast travel between whispers. But anyway, I’m stuck on the offering page, escape does nothing, and there is no button to get out. Also, adding items to the offering isn’t changing the progress. And look at the UI, options are overlapping there on the bottom left - [Space] Select [Esc] Back are overlapping the quick items. The page is just completely broken. I’ll have to force-close the game now probably.

Update: So even though the ‘Make the Offering’ button is grayed out and nothing seems to be working. You can just click the Make the Offering button anyway and get out of the page. The value of the offered items was respected luckily as well.
