Issues unresolved
Dialogue gets cut off mid-sentence
- Happens occasionally throughout the game, but it's not very consistent, making it difficult to troubleshoot the issue.[citation needed]
- Enabling Vsync/capping frame rate at 60 FPS may fix it.[citation needed]

- Run in windowed mode as a workaround.
