Well, that right, we can wait but the chances of getting a reply are low ;]
Oh don’t get me wrong not holding my breath, looking at past steam forums and certain dev responses essentially being, “Whateva, whateva, I do what I want” but the CS being the middleman in the equation hoping to see the feedback at least acknowledged even if the information is going to a place that they wont care.
Deleting this, you’re clearly bouncing posts trying to start altercations.
“You guys” was a general response. I didn’t even respond to you. Nor am I here to argue. Simply telling people to try and be a little less critical. It doesn’t help. Also, deleting your post is pointless. I read it, and the edit. And I still have no other response to it. Not here to argue. You do you. I’m free to point out what I see as some poor choices in wording and try to let people know to chill and help them realize that they need to be a bit more respectful. “You can catch more flies with honey than vinegar.”
Also, don’t assume things.
Fine, I’ll bite. Being critical is a very important thing to do with companies these days, look at the quality of games that have been put out over the last decade. You are 100% correct my lettering is not gold nor is yours, so we are free to post our personal opinions based on our own interpretations and backgrounds, you viewed the things in this thread as people being rude or making demands as they were kings, that’s 100% your view point on this topic, may not be anyone elses but your view is just as important as theirs in a feedback perspective.
The closing statement is “my” proof of said baiting altercations, in no way was it constructive to your post, was just an unneeded added shot at me, where like you interpreted this thread as rude royalty, I interpreted yours as hyperbole.

But there is an issue here; you cant change the name of a npc that has his own lore, music, and own creation, with own author like it was from nothing… without any reason.
I do agree some people sounds way to irrespectful sometimes-more on the other side nonetheless…- But this is a problem at hand, and a lack of respect, in my opinion, of the original content.
You could also sound a lil less harsh and more respectul, this I can clearly say to you without any prejudice.

Roxx did say that Amazon had brought back some voice actors so it’s possible.
Three reasons I can think of ( that aren’t completely hyperbolic and politicized ).
And there might be a combination of all three to various degrees.
Especially depending on what was changed.
Either it’s just personal sensibilities and opinions at the office that they’re injecting and making changes based off of, which imo would be extremely inappropriate.
It’s not their game, they’re helping the Korean developers bring it to us if this is the case then it’s pretty damn disrespectful imo.
They should be humble to the fact that it isn’t theirs and that changing the work of other people just because you have the power to do so is really inappropriate and self-centered.
Or it’s because they need to justify their existence/ get paid based on quotas they meet.
Basically if little needs to get changed, then why keep you employed?
A big list of ‘’ localization ‘’ looks better on paper for the people who hire you than a small list.
So sneak in a change here and there to make the list look bigger…
Or thirdly, overzealous marketing department/ people up top who took one look at it and were all like ‘’ omg this is not stereotypically Western/ is offensive what if an angry mom or game journalist tweets about it. What about our brand image!? ‘’.

Is this one of those no news is good news situations yah think?
the only reason I can think of is about an old man/granny not being able to say Abrelshud, got triggered and said "change this I cant spell it.
Abrelshud is easy to spell in english, french, spanish, german, etc… So… Yeah. Bad call from localization, need to fix it lol

Now that they’re working they just showed up to lock and even remove threads altogether and pretend like they never existed while allowing the same people who derailed them to keep derailing threads…
Yeah noticed the bickering was still going on but no word about beta or from devs anywhere, guess I’ll just focus on different upcoming releases, can’t deal with total silence from dev teams in an era where you can send an update while pooping. We’ll see at launch I guess.
@Roxx can you at least tell us please, If this feedback was forwarded to localization team and If anything is at least considering to be done.
Changing not important NPC names is ok-aish. But changing major plot NPC names that have whole OSTs, lore… behind them is just huge mistake on the localization team part.

You guys complain too much, just deal with it with all the name of classes, items, npc’s and etc, amazon games wont change anything and that is unfortunate.
@Roxx @Seawolf
Know you’re busy with the cosmetic drama, but any update on some of the localization changes such as this?

I doubt we will get any answer on any of the questions that were asked in this topic.
As we can see Roxx is not almighty and she can not know everything what is going inside AGS and we cant blame her. As a CM you will speak about things that you are allowed to speak about.
But who knows,maybe we will get a response sooner to release …
I don’t think we are asking for impossible here just this:
