Nightmare Throne NPC Maxwell's Voice CRASHES Game [Xbox]

  • DLC VERSION - IMPORTANT!: Vanilla - NO DLC, Reign of Giants, Shipwrecked, Hamlet Pending

I was playing as Wendy (the 4th unlockable character in Don't Starve) when I reached the final world, "Epilogue: Checkmate," after completing the 5th and final level of Adventure Mode.

Approaching Maxwell—trapped on the Nightmare Throne—his voice sounded continuously, but his mouth didn't move. [View the 1st Video]

I tried to talk to him ('A' to 'Talk To'), but the option didn't appear. So, I turned off his phonograph. Once I did, he started to speak, but the previous voice continued and overlapped with his talking. After his mouth stopped moving, both voices could still be heard.

Eventually, after around a minute and a half, I was able to talk to Maxwell, and he said a line. I THINK (not super sure but mostly sure) this caused a third voice to come in. Fascinated by this, I began to turn the phonograph on and off to see how many of his voices I could overlap, assuming that was what was happening (there were at least 3-5 voices).

After around the fifteenth round of switching Maxwell's phonograph on and off, Maxwell's ability to move his mouth broke down further, and then the game crashed, showing the error message seen in the second video and in the screenshot. [View the 2nd Video & the Screenshot]

In the 3rd video showcases how his mouth doesn't stop moving. [View the 3rd Video]

  • I Played the Console Edition of Don't Starve, on my Xbox Series X.
  • It was Reign of Giants, with compatibility with Hamlet enabled.
  • I played the game relatively soon after the release of 'Don't Starve Mega Update (Quality of Life, Bug Fixes)' update came out for consoles (or at least for Xbox).
  • All DLC was installed.
  • Date I found this bug: 26/07/2024.

Restarting my console, and uninstalling and reinstalling the game and/or the DLC do not fix the issue. I also tested this on an Xbox One and Xbox Series S, and the results are the same. Please fix this issue. Thank you. (o^∀^o)

P.S. Can you respond to this maybe?
