High Price to Pay mission console commands
If you just want to start the High Price to Pay mission, all you need to do is enter the following Starfield console command to begin:
startquest 002C6D74
Be warned that attempting to start a quest that requires specific triggers or hidden markers can result in game instability, so it is recommended you save your game before trying any commands. If however you are encountering a Starfield bug that prevents the mission from advancing, you might want to try the following:
resetquest 002C6D74
The above command will completely reset a quest (make sure you save your game beforehand in case it causes a crash to desktop). It also has the potential to prevent that quest from ever completing, meaning you’ll need to use the completequest 002C6D74 command to progress.
