Here are two workarounds you can use while this issue is being investigated further:

Workaround 1:

1. Open the Battle.net launcher.
2. Click on "Options" and select "Game settings".
3. Go the the "Diablo III: Reaper of Souls and check the "Additional command line arguments" box.
4. Enter the following in the field that opens up below: -locale xxXX (replace the xxXX with the language you are wanting to launch)

List of language codes that can be used:

German = deDE
English (British) = enGB
English (SEA) = enSG
English = enUS
Spanish = esES
Spanish (Latin American) = esMX
French = frFR
Italian = itIT
Korean = koKR
Polish = plPL
Brazilian Portuguese = ptBR
Russian = ruRU
Chinese (Traditional) = zhTW

***This workaround will only work if you already have the language pack downloaded for the language you are trying to force. The language pack can only be downloaded by selecting the language in the in-game "language selection" drop down menu.***

Workaround 2:

1. Navigate to the Diablo III\Data_D3\PC\MPQs folder.
2. Delete any .mpq files for the languages you don't want to use.
3. Delete the folders for the languages you don't want to use.
4. Go into the Cache folder and delete the folders for the languages you don't want to use.
5. Restart the Battle.net launcher and try Diablo III again.

For example, if I no longer want to use the Korean client I would delete the following:

koKR_Audio.mpq
koKR_Cutscene.mpq
koKR_Text.mpq
koKR Folder

Then I would go into the Cache folder and delete the koKR folder.

***If you use Workaround 2 you will need to redownload the language files the next time you want to use that language.***
