I will not buy the game on Steam if they will use Altria.

[DeltaBladeX]

Altria is how they have decided the official translation shall be some time ago, that won't change for this release. You will need to hope for a fan patch to alter the localisation text.

1 second after the game drops there will be an artoria patch

This. Besides most of the absolutely braindead complaining that comes around from the change is from people failing to realize that the two spellings are pronounced the same. Nasu just decided to do something a little goofy with the romanization is all. You spell it Altria but pronounce it Artoria because japanese is a bit of an odd language and Nasu does weird ♥♥♥♥.

And Fueito > Fate, also?

Because that would be the exact equivalent of what you just said applied to the title instead of Saber's name.

It's pronounced Artoria because you're listening to Japanese VAs read katakana that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ says Artoria. Please think.

Fate is an English word, you NPC. Artoria is a Japanese invention that's based on a European name that's still closer to said European name than whatever the ♥♥♥♥ Altria is.

The difference between us is that I do speak Japanese and I know for a fact that you and everyone who is attached to a braindead raw transcription of the katakana don't because if you did you would know that it is a worthless debate and that absolutely nobody except elitist weebs who think they're better than everyone else because they learned 3 and a half word of Japanese watching anime cares about this ♥♥♥♥.

Fun thing about different languages is that pronouncing things and spelling things can be WILDY different. Say bologna. Now pronounce it as spelled. Oh its different? I guess we should all screech incoherently for years. Simple fact is Nasu decided to do this weird language thing with its romanized spelling. The word is final and has been for years so people really need to shut the ♥♥♥♥ up about it already.
