russian language[stop ignoring]
Why do you ignore Russian-speaking users? We are people too and also want to play in our native language

Hey Focus! We're absolutely not ignoring Russian speakers. Unfortunately it's just not feasible for us to translate the game fully into Russian -- there are over 150,000 words in the game, and the cost of paying for someone to translate the game would far outweigh how many sales we would make in Russia in return. Plus, the awful truth is that a lot of Russian players do not buy the game, but pirate the game instead -- whenever we add Russian language to our games, we get an influx of pirated downloads.

So while we'd love to add Russian, and we had previously hoped to do so, we'd literally end up losing money by doing so, due to it costing more to get the game translated, compared to the number of Russian sales we'd make. Sorry about that!

I'd like to throw in my two cents. I'm honestly respect your work, but let me tell you smth. Most of the CIS gamers actually don't want to buy games that they don't understand, as the result they pirate them. BUT if they have access to russian language, they wouldn't pirate it. Well, not all of them i guess. There is a black sheep in every flock, right?) Also we can find russifier on the internet, it's not a burden. It's more efficient for us to pirate the game that doesn't have russian in it, and download russifier. Obviously, we'll lose some "bonuses", like achievements, but it's not a big deal. You can find it too! You can correct it a little bit and make your own version! I think to do so you'll need about 3-4 hours, maybe. No risk at all. Correct me if i'm wrong! And the last one: not only russians(that have enough money of course ^-^) will buy the game with russian language, all gamers around the CIS that don't know english will do it, i doubt it! And not only CIS gamers pirate your game, yea?))))

I bought the game because I liked it, I played it a little, understanding English at the school level, but not everything and that is sad, because I’m interested in this game, I searched for a crack that’s not

Well, I'm sorry that we were born in wrong country. But if you had organized suitable translation tools, you would have found those who would be ready to do translation just for fun.
