Hello!
That's weird, it looks like your text is from an outdated version and not 1.2.0. It indeed should be fixed with 1.2.0...
If you are with at least one companion, you should have more text and the "go back option". If you are alone, you have a text you shouldn't have and are missing the options to go further.
If you loaded your 1.1.x save into 1.2.0, can you try again after removing and adding again your companions?
Bellow the part of the 1.2.0 code, and the part of the conditions you were in don't make sense. I just tested it again and on 1.2.0 it works fine...
