Same problem for me. I walk into a house, talk to an NPC, and the game crashes.

OK, so my first world gen had the same crash issue. I had, however, copied my worldgen file from the previous version. Perhaps you did the same? When I reverted to the vanilla and created a parameter set in-game, the issue went away.

Doesn't crash for me, but it just freezes for 20 seconds when I greet someone, and then it continues just fine.

Got the same problem. Talk : Crash.

Tried reinstalling twice, and generating a new world each time. Anybody else got other ideas ?

I have the same problem, but have yet to find a solution, I'm going to look into it though.
My problem occurs as soon as I "greet" an NPC, resulting in an instant crash.

If I were to guess at its cause, I suspect that there's sometimes an invalid object/creature/etc in history that occasionally gets referenced when you speak to someone, causing the game to crash. If so, it's probably hard to pin down in legends... maybe not in a very small world, though.

It seems to be a problem whit some of the worlds, I genned 2 worlds, the first one was fine (except for a slideshow city) and I had this problem in the 2nd world, that whole world might be broken as different civs manifest that same bug.
