Steam being worldwide doesn't mean every game on it is intended for a worldwide audience. And since this game isn't translated into English (yet), there is no reason for the store page to be in English.

It will be translated, just because something is worldwide doesnt mean you are oblidged to make it worldwide.

Steam being world wide mean that you have to write in the store page in the most common language that is not Japanese simple as that.
People should just take for granted and use google translate?
This don't make any sense the game can be even in Saturnian or Latin but in the store page you have to write in a most common language .
The game to be for japanese audience or not does not excuse the fact that the store page is in Japanese on a World Wide platform like Steam .

There are *no* requirements to write it in english. The developers are japanese and it's of course a bummer that it isnt in english but once again:

A: It WILL be in english soon enough

B: there is once again no "rule" that it needs to be in english. Steam being worldwide once again doesnt mean the game needs to be in all languages or english.

I'm only talking about the store page with description and so on in Japanese instead of English for the audience that don't speak Japanese simple as that.
The game can remain even in Japanese i don't have problems with that with at least sub in eng but the store with the game out only in Japanese don't make any sense.

The game's primary audience are japanese people. I get your point and for the third time; It WILL be in english soon.

Ok but for me my personal opinion don't make any sense only because the "main" audience is suppose to be only Japanese you don't translate the store page in another language .
Who come up with this idea don't thinks a lot .
Is my personal opinion simple as that.

Welcome to Japanese developers.
Let me make this really simple. The devs dont know english so the store page is not in english. There is no requirement to do so and the only people who even care too begin with are the entitled idiots that pop up every now and then. It is specifcially because Steam is a worldwide service that games can be in any languange (this includes the store page).
Also, I just wanna point out the fallacy in your thinking here. The most common language in the world is not english, its chinese. In addition too that the majority of Steam users are chinese. By the logic your using here that means every single game should have their store pages in chinese because its the majority language.

The most common language in internet around the world is ENGLISH .
We are talking about using English that is the most known language and easy to learn .
Only because they don't speak English don't make any sense putting on a store like Steam not even the Description of the story and features in English simple as that.
You are generalizing my point for no reason .
I don't think that a dev because does not speak English is excused so can't give a ♥♥♥♥ about the audience around the world because they don't speak their language.
Your point don't make any sense.

What does that have to do with anything? we all know that the most spoken language in the world is Chinese, followed by Spanish, it does not necessarily have to be in English haha ​​in any case it would have to be in Chinese or Spanish

Steam is a platform made by Valve , Valve is an American company = Most used language on the platform as standard is ENGLISH .
Most commong langueg used in the world in Internet is ENGLISH not Japanese simple as that.
You just generalize like any ignorant that don't understand.

Its impossible to quantify what language is most used across the entire internet, but the most common spoken language is chinese and the majority of Steam users are chinese. This is fact. English is not the most common language and is very far from being "easy to learn". Ask any foreigner who has had too learn it. My point is that if the Steam store page had too be in the most common language it would be chinese, not english.
Developers are also not obligated to use languages they dont know. To put it into context, thats like making a Biologist do Chemistry. Sure they are both fields of science (like japanese and english are both languages) but you cant do something you simply dont know. You are not entitled too having anything translated and even so they are going too be pushing out a translation eventually anyway.
