Nails and twine for Octo the boat builder - still bugged or no?

Hey all, I'm on Undvik in my 2nd playthrough now. In my first playthrough I ignored Octo's request for me to find nails and twines because I heard the quest was bugged. How is it now? Should I spend energy searching for nails and twines? And when I should I give them to Octo to trigger more conversation?

I did this yesterday and there was about 5 seconds of dialogue and then nothing, not sure if that's the same as before or not as i completely skipped this the first time around.

its not bugged, I could give him nails (with that are meant quest item nails, not the crafting item) (which are findable on Undvik) and twine which is the simple craftign item you can have already before going to Undvik

Its kind of silly why they made here extra nails as quest items, when you could give him just right at the moment when he askas for the stuff both items from the crafting stuff easily and complete that little side task immediately that way..

In general has the game still alot of quest items, where i ask myself, whats the use for them, or why do they even exist in the game ...

Ignore it. He just wants the materials to help fix the skull of one of his dead shipmates.
