The amount of dialogue/voiceline errors are so many, makes you wonder if the group in charge of that are all drunk when they work on it..

Several times NPCs use their previous dialogues even after the event they are referring to are long past,
sometimes they use the same dialogue of their last encounter with you, not acknowledging their new location and occasion,
some times you have the option to talk to someone but they have empty dialogue and no voiceline,
and there is even one NPC got her dialogues and voicelines all mismatched

    Sounds like a bug, really.

    There have been patches and hotfixes in the past for NPC dialogue issues, so it could be another case of it.

    Are you experiencing the same issues? Or is it just me? :o

    I experienced similar issues.

    There is a side quest where we have to help two siblings who are trying to leave Elsweyr. At a certain point we need to interact with a wood elf and her dialogue is mismatched - what I heard wasn't what the dialogue window showed.
    After the quest was done, I interacted with her again, and one more time the voice file and the dialogue window were different.

    The second time I saw another inconsistency on dialogue was after finishing the side quest where you help a Khajiit who had some cargo stolen. At the end of that quest, when I interacted with him he greeted me as if we hadn't met yet.

    The first problem is probably a bug (voice and text not matching), but the second isn't.

    Once you start the "Dark Aeon" quest and speak to Abnur Tharn for the first time, his dialogue window says " the champion of Anequina" however the recorded voiced word he uses is "Aquena". I actually exited the dialogue before advancing it just so I could replay it. A voice actor messed up and they didn't catch it.

    Another mismatch is at the end of the finale quest, Sai Sahan says "There will always be a place for you here" but the text in the dialogue window reads "There will *also* be a place for you here.

    QA on this dlc was really good...

    maybe they just have an accent, ever thought about that?

    I might have thought about that had I not heard him pronounce the word correctly, with all 4 syllables throughout the previous chapter. Although he has a tendency to pronounce it differently at times. Which honestly gives me the feeling that Abnur's voice actor (Alfred Molina) isn't very invested in the role, probably just phoning it in.

    I wonder how they'll fix that, Hollywood actors are probably quite expensive. Your ESO+ dollars at work lol.

    It's not an accent issue, it's actual mispronounciation or the voice acted dialogue not matching what's on the screen. I've noticed the same quests mentioned above having completely the wrong spoken dialogue, and I found it extremely jarring every time. At least three different quests I noticed this being the case.

    1. After you finish the Forsaken Citadel delve quest, The quest giver Catina will say how impressive the citadel looks.
    Later, When you finished the main quest, Catina will show up in the party, yet her dialogue will still be talking about the citadel like she was still nearby.

    2.During the final party, if you talk to General Renmus before the speech, the dialogue box will be empty and he says nothing (there is still a option to talk further and he will talk then). After the speech, you still have the option to talk with him, but he will not respond

    3.After the quest with that Khajiit from Wrothgar, if you talk to him again, his first dialogue will still be the greeting when he first met you in South elsweyr, like his cargo was still stolen etc

    4.The wood elf someone mentioned above, her voicelines are completely mismatched from her dialogues

    Many small dialogue bugs with dragon holdl, to the point it's impossible to ignore and affects the overall gameplay experience

    Can you take a look at this post and inform the dev team? There are too many dialogues and I was only able to submit some of the bugs to support team
