Since people do not take to the forums to praise, apparently, let me do it. I am extremely happy with the chatter reduction. It would be even more awesome with volume based on distance, but I can now read dialogue without machine gun spammed chatter distracting me. A major step forward. I was ready to put away the game, but then luckily Larian fixed this hugely annoying problem and the game is now immensely playable. Kudos!
