Another ridiculous Captive Merchant glitch

I've already started the game 2 times and now the THIRD... on the two previous one i couldn't get the key because the game may think it's fun to not drop the fucking KEY. All right, started again and finally found the enemies and one of them dropped the key, but another bug starts...

PS4 1.05



I'm tired of this game...

can confirm this bug too. Killed the bandits but none of them had a key. Not in any crates or chests either. I skipped it for now...
So basically you just have to meditate and kill until someone drops it?

Edit : Also whenever I free a captor I meditate before I go see then at their locations. Never had that problem.

PS4 1.05 also. New game.

a friend of mine also opened the cage, but he just doesn't leave... that makes 3 bugs in the same area.

1) Enemies don't drop the key or the one who has it never spawn
2) You open the cage but the merchant stay there
3) You open the cage and he goes away, but it doesn't count as free since his icon stay in the cage.

Hello, had the same bug.
I fought the bandits, and after killing one of them (suppose it was the leader but I am not certain) the remaining bandits simply disappeared without dropping the key. I meditated several times but the bandits never re-spawned. The merchant, on the other hand, disappeared so I was never able to finish this thing.
Got this after I have installed the last patch.
