    I’ve been losing audio when talking to NPCs (and sometimes their mouths don’t move either) but I find the missing ‘eating food’ noise more irritating. Only on PC. I hope this bug doesn’t carry over to U26 on the Xbox.

    At least you could see your quest npc at all. I was supposed to be talking to an injured woman during the afflicted quest in Blackreach but it was just a mute laundry basket on my screen...

    Ever since Update 26 the sound quality is so bad that it sounds like I'm playing underwater.

    Sunspire is horrible. The dragons just won't stop shouting even once they are dead. The only way to get rid of it is by going far enough away from the corpse and that is not a permanent solution. Once you head back to the corpse it will still be stuck in its roar loop.
    This Bosmer was tortured to death. There is nothing left to be done.

    You can get rid of the dragon scream loop by turning down your game volume all of the way, and turning it back up. Alternatively you can go into your Champion point page and the screaming will stop when you exit.

    Do you still hear the screaming of the dragons, C'larisse?

    Its not broken, but it seems that more than one problem revealed. Sometimes my audio switched to a kind of "mono-sound". Annoying, specialy with headphones.
    This comment is awesome!

    Yes, what they call "performance upgrades" seem to be a euphemism for "quality downgrades", in many cases. Both audio and visual.

    It's broken. There is a small Addon for it (don't remember what it is called ATM) but to stop it immediately go to your CP tree and then exit. It turns off the Dragon screams....

    There's was they say that I've only heard once that ZOS cut the budget on some of the games original programmers and replaced them. I think patch by patch there's a realization that [snip]
    I think when you brake the immersion, the simplest aspect of the RPG, you are really messing up.
    Now there was also they say that this game wasn't functional prerelease, but someone figured it out by launch and made it work for two years.

    Now as to the current problem which is probably something simple.
    From what I learned just last week someone may have forgot to add an increment to the loop or deleted a parameter and or needs additional breaks.

    It was pointed out today that there are problems with the parent company... Grave as it may be it would seem to be led by vampires. Yes, there seems to be unholy abominations, feasting off the thoughts, creativity, passion, imagination, blood, sweat, and tears of Zenimax Online studios, it's devs, and community.
    Now I assure you if you stand firm in Arkay, and see the Truth!! You will be saved.
    Woe to thee who will suffer great hardship, loss of life, and be blind.
    Many will be enthralled, few will have a life.
    The abomination knows no passion, cherishes toil, and would feast upon flesh were it not for the sun.

    Remember when ZOS's parent company made $500million off facebook, and we were told ZOS would see none of it.
    We need servers, [snip]

    TBH I am afraid to ask for fix, because last time when they tried to improve performance by changing how block works... Well, since then during prime time Cyrodiil even NPCs are lagging.

    Edit:
    Oh and my mount doesn't roar to.
