Ok, thanks. That's indeed the latest version available.
Are you playing a save from an older version or is it a new playthrough?
Your problem with Sam not able to talk about Ryan looks like an old issue.
I assume you've already checked the wiki about your issues (https://wiki.andrealphusgames.com/wiki/Main_Page).
If you didn't find anything useful on the wiki, can you please join our discord server (https://discord.gg/FUyrqvbV2b) to discuss about your stories issues.
Thanks
