Comment (by TheSofox):

 Just want to say this bug is still there, and very disruptive as it
 essentially causes you to skip a vital part of the plot.

 I can also confirm that this bug is in the original version of the game
 having repo in the Steam version.

 To describe the bug in more detail:

 The proper way to play is:

 * Arrive on wolf island
 * Talk to Shiala at waterfall
 * Go to dam and get captured
 * Very long and elabourate cutscene at campsite where key plot details are
 revealed
 * Small cutscene where Shiala rescues you from jail
 * Game continues.

 However, if you reproduce the bug it goes:

 * Arrive on wolf island
 * Talk to Shiala at waterfall
 * Walk to Campsite yourself at northern part of island
 * Walk to jail room on right of the camp
 * IMMEDIATELY trigger small cutscene where Shiala rescues you from jail
 * Game continues on, with you having missed some vital cutscenes

 This bug is very easy to trigger since all you have to do is visit
 locations "out of order" (without knowing what the proper order is meant
 to be of course). Also, to repeat, its seems to be in the original game.

 I've attached two save games, one on arrival to island, and right before
 the bug (in wolf campsite, after talking to Shiala).

 Finally, I've got a nice Twitch clip video demonstrating the bug:

 (If you're interested, there's another clip where I visit the same room
 before talking to Shiala. I enter and leave the room normally, with the
 only issue being some minor dialog bugs that are not serious:
