Google Translate

[Tom Foolious]

Decided to try out the Google Translate app on my phone. There has been so much content I've completely missed out on. All the letters that I could've read. Pretty awesome too because the app will replace the original text with the translated text, copying the font color and background. Very neat stuff!

Yeah I just went to electrical panels, around in the research facility reading stuff. The advertisement boards, etc. And I learned you can set it to Auto Detect the language for easier use (not all things are in Ukrainian!)

Can you show the one exemple that is in not Ukrainian.

The developer should of just put it in whatever language the game is downloaded as. English French German Japanese etc. Not hard to make the text in other languages.

No, absolutely not. The game is based off of Ukraine. Why would they have plain english advertisements and such in Ukraine? Americans have enough handicaps and live off of enough handouts (welfare). We don't need to be spoon fed our native language too. We can respect the devs choice keeping the game grounded locally to them and use the tools we have at our disposal to reach across the aisle.

They sold their game on the global market. The most common language spoken is English. Its a good business decision to allow other languages on theyre text.

I think it makes sense because of the location, in regards to the language that's seen around the world. As far as localization, more subtitle languages would probably be appreciated. I personally play in Ukrainian audio with English Subs.

Would have been nice if you looked for a few seconds at a text it would show in the subtitles what it said in your choisen language.

For some things i used Google Lens translator!!

There isn't any profit or value to having translations to everything in game. The items that I am looking at with Google Translate are inconsequential to anything in the game. There is no point for any dev to spend time providing subtitles for such small items in a game. Anyone who wants everything spoon fed to them, well that's just pathetic. Grab a tool we have at our disposal and do something more with your life than be spoon fed everything.
