After playing the cutscene where you are introduced to the merchant and the horse dude i think the game is supposed to launch another cutscene. Sigurd says "the others have arrived" and then it starts loading.
But in my case it just cuts straight to this: https://i.imgur.com/9ia96IU.jpg

Im just stuck here with dag and sigurd. I can open the skill menu and such but not the map.Cant move around either. Tried verifying game files. Tried loading other save files, nothing works. Tried in fullscreen, tried in borderless.

I've tried restarting the game, and going back between the title screen and the game, but each time i talk to the settlers this happens and i can't play the game.

Help pls

EDIT: Setting graphics to high fixed the issue

Hey lillebamse1973,

I'm glad to hear that you were able to resolve this issue by changing your graphics settings to high!

For anyone else experiencing this issue, please give this workaround a try, as we've seen it be successful for several players. If needing additional help, please reach out to us on our new Assassin's Creed Valhalla Player Support forums, as these ones are discontinued and will not be monitored after this week. Thank you!
