Did you try pressing space to continue the dialogue scroll or did you just sit there? I just tested it and it worked correctly for me.
it sat a decent amount of time... almost 6 blinks which felt a liiiittle excessive tbh.
You aren't supposed to sit there, if you press space to continue the dialogue scroll it will continue sometimes before even a single blink. But in future updates I may put a pop-up at the bottom with "Hit space to continue" or whatever.
okie dokie.
