Voice Lines Missing - Sorceress (Character Selection)

The spoken voice lines introducing the Sorceress and her crimes are missing in the character selection menu with the gallows.

This is for the PC version (Steam) with the 0.2.0 patch and a fresh DotH toon.

Bump. My GF and I have experienced this issue on our Linux systems running 0.2.0h. Unsure if this is OS-dependent, but this sounds like the same issue.

Same issue here. 0.3, fresh player.

Its just a thing happening to everyone im guessing, I'm running it on windows 11 but me and others have complained about the same thing happening

Same thing happening here. Also am noticing that some Huntress voice lines are missing. Just shows the dialogue, but no voice. Not sure if they just haven't recorded some of her lines or if that is also a bug.

Edit: It's all voice lines in the game. Audio will randomly not play at all. For quests, it seems like every second section or so of dialogue is silent. And player character lines will often not play throughout the campaign. Someone definitely broke something.

This is not limited to one class or storyline. It is happening literally across every NPC interaction and it seems to be growing much worse. I've tried replaying certain interactions and which panels of text/voice are skipped varies between iterations. It is certainly irritating and hugely immersion breaking, but it's at its worst during quest turn ins when you cannot go back and hear what was missed - as if you do you just end up with the reward. The problem is for those of us (the minority who can still read) who appreciate the depth and effort behind the lore and the remarkable voice actors who deliver it, quest rewards are as much that as the material boon itself.

So, someone broke something in how these lines are delivered - it even affects comments your own character makes in response to others and those comments your character sometimes makes upon entering a new area.

Hopefully this is a simple fix.

Just to bump this, similar issues here.

Seemingly randomly, voice lines won't play even though the text appears on screen. Once I managed to bug the first line of a topic, exited the conversation and tried again; this time the voice line plays normally.
So it seems it's not simply some specific lines but just random ones. Not limited to any character either, pretty much every NPC in Kingsmarch has this happen, including my Monk's responses sometimes.

Hope this gets fixed soon, the lore and voice acting in act 4 especially is so good, it's unfortunate that we miss parts of it due to a bug.
