How to unlock the Chatty achievement in The Flame in the Flood - Definitive Guide

This achievement asks you to have a conversation with every resident on the river.

I feel like I should've gotten this achievement ( I've played too much of this game already), but I am somehow missing some residents and I can't find any answers on the internet. So I'm just compiling the list of residents here to eventually help you guys with it too. Please comment which ones are missing and I'll add.

Feral Children: weird young girl and her gollum little brother, usually have found them in campsite locales near the campfire

Cocteau: Old shirtless guy with a red bandana, He is found in church locales, I've found him most often in 'desolate wasteland' regions

Flimflam: Old bearded trader guy, I've found him most in desolate wasteland regions as well.

Quincy Collie: cute old cook near a trash can fire, I've usually found him in the 'small town' or 'city' regions

Magnolia: old witch-looking granny, usually at gas station locales (the ones that have the 'Magnolia's Station' building you can see from the river)

Helen Cockrow (I think that is her name): old woman with a rifle, I've only found her once and she stands out on the lit porch of the home in farmhouse locales.

I don't know if it is common knowledge, but maybe you must meet all these river residents in one run. If anybody has knowledge on that, please comment.

Please comment if you know which one's I am missing here, just wanna get an actual list written down here. The wikia for this game doesn't have jack.

ADDED INFO:

There are just six people to talk with, since the achievement tracker jumps by 16.7% for each person you talk with. So in theory, the solution is correct BUT it seems like talking to some people don't get tracked. That being said, talking to Magnolia seems to ALWAYS get tracked, I was stuck at 66%, talked to Magnolia, died and restarted the checkpoint, found her again and Bob's your uncle. I think she's in the third region. Even weirder is that I also got "Crafty" at the same time, so it seems that tracking for the two achievements might currently be linked. ~(Info from WhyattThrash)

Ok, I figured out a way to get this. There are just six people to talk with, since the achievement tracker jumps by 16.7% for each person you talk with. So in theory, the solution is correct BUT it seems like talking to some people don't get tracked. That being said, talking to Magnolia seems to ALWAYS get tracked, I was stuck at 66%, talked to Magnolia, died and restarted the checkpoint, found her again and Bob's your uncle.

Came here seeking the same answers -- my list of people is the same as yours. Trying to find a complete list. Wish I had more to add.

My list is also same, so I don't know what we're missing.

I cannot get Helen to spawn. I have been to so many farms and seen so many different scenarios for those farms I'm losing my mind. Stuck at 83% on this and the crafting achievement because of her. (Magnolia is not progressing it anymore either, seen her at least 10 times)

There are six river residents in the game. Some are story related, others are randomized. In endless mode they are still available, but much rarer and completely randomized.

  • Helen Cockrow: old lady with a rifle found in Farmhouse locations. Note: Farms are only found early on in the campaign. Make sure you prioritize stopping there to increase your chances of finding her.
  • Feral Children: young siblings found in Campsite locations.
  • Magnolia: old witch by a cauldron found in Gas Station locations.
  • Cocteau: shirtless gravedigger found in Church locations.
  • Flimflam: shady trader found at a certain spot in the campaign or in Desolate Wasteland locations.
  • Quincy Collie: friendly mechanic found at a certain spot in the campaign or in Small Town locations.

You need to meet NPCs with whom you can talk. There are only 6 of them. Two are story-based, the other four are found randomly in various locations. The list of characters is presented below:
- Feral children - met in the wilderness or in a camp;
- Cocteau - undertaker - met in the church area;
- A woman with a gun - she appears in an area with a farm icon;
- Magnolia - an old woman who looks like a witch - met her near a gas station (an area with a gas station icon;
