Anyways, here's my issue: I've been waiting for the 1.6 patch to come along in the hopes of the NPC respawn issue being corrected. Specifically, the only larger quest line I have left to complete is the Companions one, which I started some time ago but got stuck upon being given my first job, which was to intimidate Marcurio outside of Riften. Problem being, I had killed the guy many moons before getting this quest, and no matter how much I asked him he continued to stay clean of the nasty oxygen habit he had previously (i.e., stayed dead and did not respawn).
Along comes update 1.6 and the fix for my problem! Only problem is that a month plus of gametime has gone by and he remains dead. Oh and I should point out also that despite being instructed to intimidate him outside Riften, he is lying dead in the dungeon I found him in which is quite a distance from Riften.
So, a few questions I have:
1) Is this one of those situations where the NPC should have respawned?
2) If yes, have I waited long enough post-update 1.6 for him to have respawned?
3) If he is not going to respawn, how do I get around this?
4) Why now when I walk into Jorrvaskr does Farkas keep drawing his sword on me and entering into dialogue when I haven't requested it? When I back out of it, it re-engages 3-4 seconds later.
Any guidance or clarification around this would be appreciated. I'm assuming this is an ongoing software issue so have tried to place the post appropriately.
Cheers!
