  • Not being able to earn those skill points even though you put in the work can be extremely frustrating and can lead to people abandoning the game.
  • If you have the same issue in Dying Light 2 Stay Human you can take some steps to help remedy it, but mostly the issue fixes itself actually.

We all know how frustrating it can get when we’re just trying to enjoy our game and all of the sudden we get game-breaking errors or glitches that make it impossible to advance.

Those are the times when a solution is the most needed, but unfortunately, many bugs that plague today’s games don’t have a fix guide yet.

Why? Well, because nobody knows what causes these problems and the workarounds tried so far haven’t seemed to do the trick.

That being said, many of the issues we encounter during gameplay have easy solutions that can restore game functionality.

Lots of Dying Light 2 players reported dealing with the Unable to initialize Steam API, as well as the CE-34878-0 errors.

And because we helped you out with the above-mentioned problems, we saw only fit to do our best and help you solve not getting skill points as well.

If you find yourself in a similar situation, the solutions are limited, but here’s what you can do to try and fix this nuisance.

1. Update Dying Light 2 to the latest version

  1. On Steam, right-click Dying Light 2 and select Properties.steam game properties

The best you can do is just continue the game and keep earning experience points, and the problem should fix itself after leveling up a few times.

Another option you should explore is also getting the missing skill points. The game shouldn’t block you from developing Aiden’s skills.
