Pretty irritating bug where I select the "talk" option with any companion and nothing happens; I can select the "cancel", "follow", and "trade" options and those work. The only companion I can select the "talk" option is dogmeat, it seems dogmeat is the only companion which is fully working. At the time when the bug started I had Nick Valentine as my follower, and the other thing I have noticed is those companions will also not fast travel with me. I guess to sum up, I can't "talk" to the companions and they wont fast travel with me.... Unless if there are earlier saves I can resort to that I dont know about, currently my earliest save in My Documents folder still has this issue. Thanks for the help, it is greatly appreciated.
P.S. I did find on other forums where people found this bug to happen if they are stuck in a dialogue with a different npc which they left without finishing the dialogue. I have considered this and went back to the different npcs I may have been stuck in dialogue with but unfortunately nothing has worked, I have no active quests as well. thanks.
