Steps:
I don't know exactly what triggered this. I was following Main Scenario quests and one of the NPC's suddenly had no text in their chat boxes OR their confirmation screens. I did battle a Gastornis right before speaking with the first NPC I noticed this with, but other free company members say they encountered this when rapidly clicking through the chat boxes (I do rapidly click through the quests to power through them). Since I cannot click any confirmation boxes or accept/deny anything I am completely unable to continue with anything requiring NPC input. Some free company members reported success in fixing this by completely exiting the game and logging back in (if they can get back in through the 5006 errors...). This did not work for me and I can't get this to fix. I originally thought it was all NPC's but after checking around, it just seems to be the two I mentioned above.
