Romanian language

[Anderson]

I just want to point out that there is a significant audience in Romania as well for this game that would really appreciate it if the game was translated into it (at least text).

An Eastern European Game of Thrones is something that people would love since it's so close to home.

How big of a audience? Is it in the millions or at least hundreds of thousands?

There is a crapton of dialog.

If they're smart they will allow modders to implement this with the RedKit.

A pretty realiable audience if the game will make an appearance on game shelves, retail stores. I haven't checked but usually new products come in a couple of months.

This game says a lot the word ♥♥♥♥ and plowing and well all kinds of profanities that really can not be translated with the same flavour in other languages.

The Russian version dealt with that very well.
Both the games and the books handled that well - I'd even say the russian version is closer to the polish "feel".

But either way it just proves how much a good translation can do!

Excuse my ignorance but I thought most Romanians knew English pretty well? I know Romanian is a language on its own, and obviously I'm generalizing so it won't apply to everyone but I thought it was pretty common to speak English there.

I hope they do offer more language support though. It can only help sell more copies assuming the cost of translation and voice acting is offset by those additional sales.

Some romanians know English, but far as I can see, for many it is easier to learn French because it seems closer in pronounciation and accent (a soft accent akin to the one in France).
There are exceptions of course, you're right.

Yeah but so do Russians and well every country that has a translation of the game and that is not a reason for there not to be one the best I could think is that is not a big market in Romania.
