The reverted patch fixed the problem.
Steps to reproduce the problem with the demo: Install the demo. Start the demo with Arcanum.exe. In the main menu choose <Single Player>, <New Game>, then <Pick Character>. Skip the intro video. The game opens with a conversation. You can observe that during the conversation game characters are missing.
