Ni no Kuni 1 spoiler AI freeze. Was wondering if anyone else encountered this. Spoiler
I was doing the zombie Hamelin boss, but then his AI froze at the phase transition. In the video, you can see the boss is still attacking because of my counter attack. I tried looking online for an answer, but I couldn't find one. I was specifically playing on PS5 remastered if that helps. This also happened in the King Tom fight, but I do not have video :(. In all my years playing the PS3 version, I've never seen this happen before(kinda wished it did cuz this boss sucks).Sorry if this is a common bug and I'm just ignorant.

Playing through the game again to test this (saved over my file like an idiot) and a similar thing happened during Royal Jelly. It was different however because only the babies it spawns were frozen. Another curious thing was that the cutscene of the jellies spawning didn't play, but Drippy's dialogue about them did. I'm fairly certain that this happens only to bosses with cutscenes in the middle. Will test further. I have video of the Jelly boss if anyone would like to review.

Hello, not that I remember. I don't know what can cause this; maybe a sequence of hits or commands...At least, this was killed easily.

I could swear this happened when I was fighting Bashura and the Porco Grosso too, don't really know if there's a fix for it so if you wanna fair fight then it's probably best to just restart from your last save but if you want to be lazy like me, "give em a whacking and send em packing".
