Anyone notice the expanding heads in NPC conversations.

I've noticed sometimes that when you talk to NPC's in Stations, their heads expand like balloons.
Not always but I think certain animations are broken.

Can confirm.

Perhaps due to overlaying/overlapping and incompatible emotes maybe? (Tenuous example: nodding and shaking head at the same time?)

[exogenesis]

I've seen this, very disconcerting it is too.

Looks like a scene from the film Scanners, where the head is just about to explode

That's what the Smalltalk is, getting in sink with their Brain Waves to make their heads explode

I've noticed it happens with a person standing against the wall in the Locker area of the sleeping quarters.
And also the lockers in that corner of the hallway where that one person stands there.

Doesn't always happen though, so I feel this maybe a memory degrading issue when the game slows down after several hours of playing?
