Can't talk to Beth on 5.2, there's only an option to trade with her like the previous version. So the new quest is softlocked for me, dunno how to beat the roots. Any workarounds? I transferred my save from the previous version if it helps.
Try going straight to the farm property and talk to Beth's hubby there. If that doesn't work, then, uh. Well, that just leaves a new game. After all, this game is more about the journey than the goal.
