 Oh, right, I forgot to test that mode since I so rarely turn off
 subtitles.

 If I run the opening scene of the crippled version in ScummVM:

 TEXT: Character portraits are animated, and text boxes are shown correctly
 as far as I can tell. Music volume is not lowered.
 SPEECH: Character portraits are shown but not animated. There are no text
 boxes, but the music volume is lowered temporarily.
 BOTH: Character portraits are shown but not animated. Text boxes are shown
 correctly. Music volume is lowered as long as the text boxes are shown.

 Except for TEXT mode, there are warnings like this printed when characters
 speak:

 {{{
 WARNING: Sync::start: failed to find resource sync36.400(1, 0, 0, 2)!
 WARNING: Failed to find audio entry (400, 1, 0, 0, 2)!
 }}}

 So I would think there's a reasonable chance that the game behaves
 correctly in TEXT mode despite the missing files.
