I know this is a known issue, but I can't find anything online with how to deal with it. The only "sure-fire way" to fix it is to "get out of your power armor", but that doesn't help if you never wear any.
In case anyone doesn't know what I'm talking about, it's when you're talking to someone and then after one dialogue line, they just stand there silently staring at you and the camera switches between you two like the conversation is still going. You're unable to do anything except hit "A" which only makes your character say the generic "uh huh" and "ok" which would skip dialogue lines, but only it doesn't do anything with this bug.
I sometimes get this bug, but most of the time I can at least cancel out and try again, but it doesn't seem to be an option with important NPCs in quests. Just now, I had just hunted down Kellogg and started to talk to him. I got about half way through the conversation when this bug happened and I was forced to close the game. It also autosaved mid conversation so I don't have another save close to it as the last save was before I saved Nick so I lost a little over an hour of gameplay and I imagine some of you can understand how tedious the quest to save him and track Kellogg is. Especially when Dogmeat has to stop constantly to make sure every red dot is dead.
Does anyone know a fix for this bug? I'd really rather not have to deal with this again.
