Can't view cutscene for 'Parley on the Frontline' quest... just see loading screen

[Drr0b]

Hi all, maybe you can help me.

I have had a number of issues with cutscenes, prompting me to try with DirectX 9, framerate limiter off, borderless window, and any combination of the above. When not borderless I have tried a number of resolutions. My GPU driver is up to date.

However, nothing I do can get the starting cutscene for Parley on the Frontline to initiate. Instead, it appears to be constantly loading.

Thanks
