I bought the game on CD. This isn't the first time this has happened, nor it the only bug I've encountered. It is the first time I took pictures and decided to post.
Here are three pictures of should be Esteemed Elders. They are all in the same tribe. This glitch doesn't affect all villagers as some do achieve Esteemed Elder status.
Lala 1Lala 2 Shuka 1 Shuka 2 Tutuni 1Tutuni 2 The few of the other glitches are kids not being able to pick up a collectible as it's to close or under water.
Kid picking up a collectible on the Mosaic and not being able to move until collectible disappears.
I can't think of anything else at the moment.
