Issues fixed

Subtitles only consist of basic terms like "Neutral" and "Greet"; and settings are shown as always being on, despite the settings still having effect on gameplay if they're clicked on.[5][6]

Open the pause menu → Game options → Languages, and change back and forth between a different language and your intended language.
