Language Feedback

I played the game in three different languages.

Polish

The Polish version is by far the best one. Not only is the voice acting is very good but also the dialogs feel by far the most authentic. It's like the dialogs were written in polish and then translated into the other languages.

German

The German voice acting is very good. But the dialogs are sometimes a bit weird. Nothing immersion breaking but you can tell that it was translated and not written specifically for the German language. It is most noticeable in the players response. But also noticeable in the dialog between Whistler and Diego.

English

The English version is very good, no negative remarks here.

Hey

German wasn’t translated. It is one of 2 source languages the game was written in.

I recall the similar things were being said from the original games by German communities. They said that that translations didnt do the game justice as much, but I dont remember in what way. Perhaps some phrases or ways things are said in deutche, do not translate well.

It is what it is, I loved all Gothic games even with my boring english versions. :)

The german dubbing actors are unfortunately not the original actors from part 1?
This would have been really great.

Hey,

thanks for the response. Interesting to hear that. Its maybe because it is not easy to convey a medieval fantasy setting in german. Other games have the same "problem". Like Witcher for example: The polish language is very good, the german good and the english version superb. Both polish and english sounds native, while the german version sounds translated.

Overall, your team did a very good job with the dialogues and voices. In all my playthroughs the game sold me the imersion to be a Gothic game. Which is exactly what I want it do be. So keep up your awesome work!
