Language Support

#1 Post by SkaZZ » Mon Aug 11, 2008 7:16 am

Hi. First, sorry for my bad english... I am spanish guy.

My question is : why don't have QFG2 language packs?

The QFG2 Remake is... INCREDIBLE!!!!! I love this game and I traslate the old game, but I like (and spanish people) language support.

Thank you

Hi, SkaZZ. They don't make language packs anymore because they can't tell for most languages if the translation is accurate and done with good care.
Also, I'm spanish, too, and the worst thing you can say before offering to translate something is "sorry for my bad english" :eek

Yes, there is far too much dialouge in QFG2 for it to be translated and as we've said previously it would be very time consuming for us to check the quality and accuracy of every translation.

I said "sorry for my bad english" because it isn't perfect. I don't want traslate QFG2 Remake, but if dialog files are external or something, someone could traslate...

But, it is only an idea.

Sorry for all and thank you for to create this great remake!!! King's Quest 1 and 2 are very good, but QFG2 is a cult game for me ;D

Hmmm... you know. The game should have been made in Mandarin, since it's the most spoken language in the world.

This is a terrible mistake!!

You guys will have to rewrite the dialogue for the entire game!!

I speak Mandarin, though at this point my proficiency is rather rusty (at best). I think I'll stick to editing stuff written in English.

Not a good idea to post in spanish when it is obvious the forum is international and english only. But if you want to speak elfico, do so. But at least tell people what it is.
