Having done all the work for the Moulins, I went to Antigua to get the reward. After I dug up the sword, various controls stopped working. I couldn't side-step, couldn't speed up time, and back on the ship's deck I couldn't get to lower decks either by fast travel or by walking to the door .
The journal which led me to the sword mentions that bad luck is associated with it, so is this some sort of curse? If so, is there a way to lift it? Or is it a bug?
I tried copying all the game files from my backup directory as well as deleting the "options" file, reloaded the saved game from after I'd picked up the sword, and the controls were still broken. Then I reloaded a saved game from before I got the sword and everything was fine. I went and dug up the sword again and the controls broke again.
