Yep, we're looking into some of the issues you're reporting, and I might reach out to some of you via PM to get more information.
A few questions for you...
1. What is your chaos level? (High/Low)
2. Did you sleep dart or kill an NPC just prior to exiting Galvani/entering Distillery?
3. Did an NPC notice and ‘alert’ on you prior to exiting Galvani/entering Distillery?
4. When this issue was experienced, what were your powers and their level?
5. What was in your inventory at the time of the issue?
6. How many hours had you been playing when this issue occurred?
Hey, cheers for the response. Answers as follows:

6. Three or four hours, I think... I've since restarted the mission, ignored the side quest to Galvani's and played through, so can't be more precise. Sorry bout that.
Incidentally, just some more info that may or may not help:
- Had no issues with the Distillery, only Galvani's.
- I've just finished the game (after skipping the Galvani's side quest) and no other issues or bugs cropped up - everything else ran very smoothly
- I have 2 gaming-capable PCs, and trying the save game on my second machine got the same crash. Both PCs run Win x64 with ATI cards.
Other than the one problem, fantastic game - looking forward to a second playthrough once the bug's fixed! Let us know if you need any more info.
