OK, this has now happened to me about 4 times. I can no longer call it a fluke. I'll be in the MIDDLE of a freaking battle, and all of a sudden, I notice that my block seems "stuck". As in, I am still blocking after letting go of right mouse button. I click right mouse click again and then the real issue begins:

Most of my controls no longer work! I can still move around with WASD, but I can no longer attack, dodge, block, etc. I think I can throw signs though. Either way, I have to run the hell away from the fight, save, and then reload the save in order to fix it every time.

Google does not seem to provide any answers for this. I cannot find others experiencing this. Anybody else dealing with this pain in the ass?

I am having the exact same issue and I still can't seem to find anyone else noticing it except apparently this post. I'm tired of it happening because I'll be fighting a decently hard boss, get him down to half health, and then it just stops working on me so I can't do anything. I'm starting to get really angry at it.

We should compare specs/peripherals to see if there's some common denominator.

CPU: i7 3770k
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 980 G1 x 2 (SLI)
Keyboard: Logitech G710+
Mouse: Razer Deathadder

That's about all I can think of that might be related.

Okay, here's my specs:

CPU: i5 3570k
GPU: EVGA Superclocked GTX 980
Keyboard: Vortex KBTalking One
Mouse: Logitech G500s

So we have nothing in common except the 980, but you have two of them from a different company.

It would seem that whatever they did to address the keybinding issues is having some unexpected side effects...

I've read that a few others are having this same symptom on reddit. But it has been alarmingly few. Like, I saw 2 posts with no replies. And the fact that no one else is responding to this thread makes me wonder how only a few of us are experiencing this.

Weird.
Do you have an controller or something who simulate a controller ? Or a software.

I never saw this error ingame.
and it's the first post I see with thus error.

Same problem here. First the dive key (C) stopped working in White orchard until I restarted the game, second time in Valen.

This happened to me yesterday, but only in the training in the prologue (since I just started again after a year, I did the basic training). After that, it has seemed fine. (V.1.22)

The problem's apparently still there.
Happens to me, also from time to time.
WASD and mouse are working just fine while I can't attack, switch weapons or use signs at all.
Pretty annoying and only fixable through loading another save state.

Same here. And it's sooooo frustrating.
I got it when i had to switch to another application for a sec.
I'm also using the borderless window rendering.

Also, just noticed, the enemies won't attack. They'll just tip toe around me :P and i'm not able to cast signs either.

Edit: I managed to get out of this ... situation by the help of an archer. He was able to attack me and immediately after that i could combat.
So, i guess the next time i'll try to equip the crossbow to see if i'm able to get out of the deadlock if the enemy has no archers.

Got controller vibrate off? Not experiencing this problem, on my PC. But I have vibrate toggled off, its on by default, in the Witcher 3 settings..
Also, maybe compare fighting styles, settings, did they change? Is this happening with specific battles, or across the board vs random foes?

Rig: 3 laser mouse by Razor, a junk keyboard with the MS key spooned out, in a Win10 sys.

April 2017 and this is still broken. It's happened like 4 or 5 times to me by now - in the middle of combat the keys and mouse buttons just stop working. Each time I had to run away or monkey around until I manage to get a few Ignis going to end the battle, but it stays broken until I restart the game.

People treat CDPR like they're the Second Coming or something, like the best dev team that ever existed, and they continually get a pass for stuff like this - a bug that literally breaks the game until you restart and that they haven't been bothered to fix after 2 years.
