Kingdom Come

set in Bohemia, modern day Czechia

characters speak English, not even with an accent, just plain old British English

characters dont even have Czech names, the main character is literally called Henry

how did they get away with this? Isnt this game supposed to be historically accurate? Why did they do such a lame localization? Only Americans want localizations, everyone else hates em and would've loved to play the game if it had Czech names

Wasnt bohemia pretty much german at the time?

Play in czech or german, then.

Who cares? No one is playing in euromonkey languages

imagine not playing the first in German

lmao mutt moment, second game will come with Czech out of the box too

Bohemia was part of the Holy Roman Empire, basically Germany but Roman larping. They were still slavic
the place names and the characters that are based on real life characters dont have their real Czech names but have some sort of anglicization
but then they still sometimes say kurva to remind the audience that they arent English

this is Hans for example
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Ptáček_of_Pirkštejn

Set language and subtitles to Czech, ezpz

Don't care. As long as I don't have to see blacks or browns, I'm happy.

the problem with that is that it stil is made with the American localization in mind. So if you dont have the literal UI in Czech, its gonna be really messy. There is no point.

It was Czech with a large German minority, especially the middle class of artisans and merchants

characters speak English, not even with an accent, just plain old British English

Didn't have the budget for Czech AND English voice acting
No English at all would be too risky
English with Czech accent would be considered extreme cringe and national embarrassment

characters dont even have Czech names, the main character is literally called Henry

Czech names would get butchered by voice actors
it's for the best, trust me

I think Metro games had a good way of handling this. Places are usually in English because that just makes sense, but the names arent AFAIK
they should've just made it that way.

The devs actually talked about this. Originally they were going to have everyone speak in the old English. But they realized it might be too much of a barrier for most people.

English with Czech accent would be considered extreme cringe and national embarrassment

Metro games basically had it this way and it wasnt bad

that makes even less sense though

Nobody wants to hear English VAs fake an accent and stumble on the pronunciation of names. If it's a setting where everybody is speaking the same language then regular English is perfectly fine, then you should have the VAs do different accents for characters that are foreigners or have different in-universe accents. Pic related was also better because the British actors just stuck to their British accents insted of treying tu spik lejk a rushan davai

Why? The main language was always going to be English since they're selling the game on a global market. But the English of the time would probably be not understandable even to a lot of native speakers.

Metro games would've been cringe if it had British English in it instead of VAs faking Russian accent

why would you want a worse accent
makes no sense

if you ever went that far as into thinking that if it wouldve been okay to have unintelligble English in the game, why wouldnt they just hire Czech VAs and have them speak English at that point and just basically play around with it? Actually that would've been what I would've done.

its like the thinking is upside down

They were probably thinking about selling the game. The game didn't actually launch which a Czech dub. But I think it had a Polish dub. I'm assuming the reason for that is market size.

euromonkey languages

british fags didn't even beat the vikings. calm your tits kek

pretty sure that is not Henry and the name is actually Jindrich

Pretty epic subversion there OP.
However HENRY AS COME TO VISIT US?!!
JESUS CHRIST BE PRAISED

Localizers strike again...

Why don't you go cry why nobody speaks russian in MGS3?

still no Hussite game where you defenestrate public officials

Feels bad man.

Metro is a bizzare case where it had just as many Slavosphere actors speaking english as native English speakers pretending to be slavic.

yes, usually games only get Polish, German, French, Spanish (Latin) and maybe Italian dub but thats about it
I think the dual dubbing option would've been the easiest choice if they really wanted it to be accurate and not have it cost a lot

this. the complaints have to be a false flag, who the fuck is retarded enough to complain about one of the only massive games lately to include ZERO non-whites and absolutely no faggotry whatsoever?

MGS3 is for movie game people though

hear me out
there are people in Europe today, that can go outside and not see a single non-white
there are people that dont have such low standards as you do in terms of what to expect from a historical game

I don't want to see accents stapled on to a language to imply it canonically being a different one.

right, just speak English properly

imagine if Japanese games would be as lame and you would be a John going to a Japanese high school instead of Takeshi
there really is no other argument for this except fearing that the game wouldnt sell, which I doubt

Americans and Britoids and Anglophiles dont need to participate in this discussion

characters dont even have Czech names, the main character is literally called Henry

So it would be better if everyone was called Jindrich, Karel, Jan, and Vaclav?

Jan

that name isnt translated in the game anyway and yes. Why wouldnt it be? I wouldnt want to play a Japanese samurai game where I was called Sam

the main character is literally called Henry

Only in some localizations. He is Jindřich. But it's too hard for mutts.

the retard posted in English on an English forum

play kcd, stop crying.

???
Are you retarded? Is this the first time you're made aware of the fact that translations exist?
They speak british in the english version, and his name is Henry in the english version alone.
What a bizarre question to pose.

yes, we dont need to speak our own languages to each other and use something that is neutral to most of us and fair. Doesnt mean I am gonna call Marcus Antonius Mark Antony
go eat a burger

Order the czech version then

translations arent same as localizations. Learn the difference.
you are a retard

Translators localize as well, in most cases it's the same exact job, stop being autistic.

Until recently it was common to adapt names into your own language. John, Hans, Jan, Jean, Juan, Ivan etc are all the same name just adapted locally. Hence Anglophones say John Calvin and not Jean Calvin for example, or Francis of Assisi instead of Francesco etc.

Henry and Jindřich are the same name, both bastardizations of the German Heinrich, just one is French (and then adapted by the English) and the other Czech.

hello, this Japanese game I ordered has stupid localizations for many things that arent accurate and playing it in Japanese doesnt fix it since I still need the UI and translations for the most part which arent translations but just localization

"HERP DERP JUST PLAY IT IN JAPANESE THEN!"

translation doesnt mean localization and this is a localization, for Americans, not translation
its not being autistic, its basically Americanized translation since British English makes it sound medieval for them

John Huss/Jan Hus is a pretty pertinent example.

learn the language then, weirdo

we dont need to speak our own languages

dont need to participate in this discussion

Pick a lane, yuropoor.

these two dont go against each other
you are just a troon who hates everything you do and that is why you play a Czech game but want it to basically be a burger simulator

We haven't had a Viking on these lands since 1066 you subhuman

except Jan Hus was never translated in the game
have any of you actually played this game?

its so fucking funny that you wrote all that out in english while bitching about americans

I dont follow
whats so funny about that? Do you think I am writing in English to cater to you? Do not think so.

You're just a fence sitter hiding behind semantics of "need" to stake out a real claim. Centrists get the rope. If people want to hear shit ass European screeching they can turn it on and read the subtitles. It's been done with Japanese for a long time. You're just mad a company isn't putting your nationalistic pride ahead of profit. That's exclusively a (You) problem. Cry, just somewhere else.

Cause he's more famous as Jan Hus these days than as John Huss. Historically he would have been called the latter in English speaking media however. It's like how English speakers always say Kaiser Wilhelm despite calling his predecessors William. It's incoherent for the sake of modern understanding.

you dont even know your own countries history, Visajeet

yeah you did actually. do it in your tongue then and see who cares. lmao

OI WOTS ALL ISS THEN? OIM ENRY FROM FOGGY OL SKALLITZ TOWN, PIP PIP CHEERIO, CZECH AS A POUND I IZ. RULE, BYZANTIUM! BYZANTIUM RULE THE WAVES!

Nobody wants to play some dracula-sounding balkan subhuman.

americans dont have their own language though, they use english

have you actually played this game though? Why would you give Jan Hus as an example?

now you just went full Anon Babble and your post has nothing logical in it
also Japanese games dont have you playing as John

Cope. You're ashamed to say where you're from and you probably should be desu.

The difference is that the names in Czech and English are different versions of the same name. A foreign language would translate your version of the name with whatever their counterpart was, like Freidrich to Frederick or Louis to Lewis.
Meanwhile Japanese and English names like Takashi and Henry are unrelated, so you can't easily convert one to the other.

and americans came from?

you already showed where you are from, Visajeet

Unironically American and British English are already separating. Give it another 50 years and the American Dialect will be on the same level as Afrikaans as its own language.

Imagine playing a game about Rome and they sound like cooka da pizza pie man instead of a proper gentleman of the empire.
Couldn't be me.

Concession noted and accepted have fun baiting :)

I couldn't play in German because the different names in spoken and written text threw me off

Massive

This is a AA game.

minority of Americans came from Europe and even tinier minority came from the British isles

euromuslim moment

no argument

Stay mad, Adolf

also Japanese games dont have you playing as John

Cloud Strife

Keep coping.

is FF7 set in fucking Japan or in western inspired fantasy world?

ahhh a Anon Babble poster

Harold btfo an army of Norwegians right before Hastings.
And after Hastings Anglos became much more closely tied to the French, while the Danes became more closely tied to the HRE and central europe while Swedes turned to Finland and Russia. Scots actually fought a couple of wars with Norway but that was over a couple of small islands.

if you wanted historical answer, then the answer would be that it America was a mix of European colonies, the Dutch, the French, the Swedes etc. and ultimately only the British empire kept their colonies
the place was very much blacks and people of British origin before later on after its independence when modern America arguably formed. Then after the WW2 it ultimately stopped being white desigend country and became melting pot where people of European origin are a clear minority and will be for eternity

Japanese games

goal post moves

kek

vikings invaded Britain and basically changed the country into what its today. Just go on wikipedia and research who the post viking raid British rulers were ethnically

no one was ever arguing that game made in Czechia, not set in Czechia is supposed to have Czech names
you madeup an argument in your head and are just trolling now

You're brown

You wrote that post in English, a European language.

*yawn*
this is just how the rest of the world views America though. No one cares about your white nationalism outside of America

He wrote it in American, actually

he American localization in mind. So if you dont have the literal UI in Czech, its gonna be really messy.

is it? seemed fine in german and french

no czech names

The codex mentions the real names of historical figures and locations in czech, its historical fiction made to a tasteful palatte

*yawn*
don't care

sorry but the visajeet is right. also the brits were right to torch the danish faggot navy

/thread

Americans speak American. The English speak Urdu now.

Burgertown

as in, you had the UI in German and French but with English dubs? Unless the German and French text were following the localization names and places then there was a clear distortion since the dub is using different words for nouns

my wish

total appalachian and YEEHAW saturation

the sad reality

skibidirizz muhfuggen BIXNOOD

yeah well you clearly cared since you resorted into calling me brown when I laid out the facts about your country. It obviously made you bit self-conscious

Lel, funny but sad

American have reached new levels of retardation. Keep it up! You are drawing closer and closer to the singularity!

characters speak English

Do you understand the basic concept of market viability?

characters dont even have Czech names, the main character is literally called Henry

I'm sure Christopher Columbus was also a 100% Anglo man.

blum

Internet langauge, as in the whole skibidi stuff will be recognized as the universal tongue that only Esperanto could dream of being. It will never be officially used, but the international shitspeak will be understood.

my first run of this game was on hardcore mode and i put the language in german for that pure HRE rpg kino experience
for some reason i didn't put it in czech? which made think retroactively that the language wasn't available at launch, but it was. so no idea what i was thinking there
also there are some czech names and shit. i remember npc's named wojtek. that's not a german name

Do you understand the basic concept of market viability?

the entire philosophy behind the game was basically to say "markets, you are wrong". That is why they had kickstarter which they put forward to investors to show that people are interested in this and not just in fantasy medieval slop

I dont understand your point about Christopher Columbus. It would make more sense if he stayed in Italy and would still be called that

it wasnt actually available in launch and the Czech dub was a fandub anyway. Only the second game has official Czech dub

and yes, I did like it that they still kept some of them intact. But Henry is just too cheesy

the facts

euromuslims are retarded lmao

French text were following the localization names and-ACK

the english names are german so who gives a fuck

it wasnt actually available in launch

you sure?

the Czech dub was a fandub anyway

tf does that mean? how is a "fandub" one of the official options you can choose today bruh

what part did I get wrong then?

the English names are German

except they are not. Henry is not a German name.

yes I am sure. They announced the Czech dub for the second game for a reason
the fandub just basically means AFAIK that it was unpaid job

The irony of course is that a considerable number of normans and saxons ended up right in constantinople doing merc work and settle.
So, not uh, "Oi m8" English who aren't even a thing yet, but their ancestors are bumbling around the empire asking these fucking greek gay cunts where the "cheekoinos nandoi" is.

Thankfully they never end up actually ruling the shitpile. It was bad enough with the Balkan one (that was actually pretty good) or the Khazar horse fucker (who was also pretty good, it turns out the greeks are shit at ruling who knew)

fair enough

the fandub just basically means AFAIK that it was unpaid job

so, what does that say about its quality in general? and why would anyone work for free? and why would warhorse studios accept it?

Talmberg? Skalitz, etc? Squint and you'll hear Heinrich. Keep complaining and I'll complain about how they didn't use a medieval french dub.

yes, those are also localized. They didnt use German versions in the English dub.

the entire philosophy behind the game was basically to say "markets, you are wrong".

That was the marketing pitch, yes. The business reality is that they would still be missing out a large segment of the market without English.
There are plenty of chud gamers who will go "hell yeah teach am wokies, still not buying if no english tho" and from the perspective of running a new company, not aiming for them with your first big game is bad priorities.

I dont understand your point about Christopher Columbus. It would make more sense if he stayed in Italy and would still be called that

He's named Henry to us because the language we experience the game in is English. He's Jindřich in the world.
You seem worked up about this, why don't you just play the Czech dub?

they are german lmao

AFAIK it was controversial in Czechia that they didnt have a Czech dub. Understandable. So it was passion project
and why wouldnt they accept it if the community wanted it? They did say they would've liked to have it but it was a budget thing and for the second game they are doing offical dub since money is not so tight anymore

That sounds like a Balkan problem.
Those seem fairly easy to solve.

alright. i figured since you said "don't use it, it's a fandub anyway" i thought you were referring to its shitty quality or some shit

they didnt have a Czech dub.

They have one now. God forbid a new indie dev avoid unnecessary risks in their initial release.

The business reality is that they would still be missing out a large segment of the market without English.

no one in this thread argued that there shouldnt be an English dub. My point was more about the localization

why don't you just play the Czech dub?

because
1. The game didnt release with a Czech dub
2. I dont understand it, the texts and the UI are just following the localization so in the end it doesnt really work. Just like the problem with English dub with Japanese games, where they localizate the hell out of it and the subs are just following the localization

a new indie dev avoid unnecessary risks

what risks?
also, i don't think they count as a indie dev lol. sure they're up and comers but KCD is probably either triple A tier or close to it

To be honest, localizers have been gay cunts far longer than video games have been around. A lot of european towns are anglicized for increasingly spurious reasons.
Złe Mięso? Okay, maybe hard to pronounce but you live next to wales you can fucking suck it up.
Munchen? Why is Munchen hard? Why the fuck call it Munic?

what risks?

also, i don't think they count as a indie dev lol

Jesus christ I can tell you're a retard who has never been near any form of business strategizing in your life.
It was their first game you dumb cunt, if they did not break even, the company would have ceased to exist. The idea is to minimise the risk of that happening as much as possible. Just because they had a "fuck AAA" message does not mean you can survive in the market on pure hopes and dreams.

Nice thread

GODS BE PRAISED. ENRY'S COME TO SEE US.

They sometimes speak Czech even when it’s set to English, they have subtitles in Czech above their head as well.
I finished it yesterday, can’t wait for no 2. Up there on the best games of 2025 I bet.

IMG_4865.jpg - 2891x1643, 957.55K

yes, I am all for English dub but for the sake of historical accuracy I would've much preferred it being English but without overt localizations and dont believe a second anyone would've really had a problem with it

i know that already
i was referring to why including a czech language option would be a risk. it's got germand and french iirc. because the czech demographic is too small or something?

Become a 12th abbot and punch the retards who started the problem.
Don't punch them too hard though, we might end up with something incredibly fucking stupid like how French has a regulatory body.

I think they meant releasing a game just in Czech would have hurt sales, it would.
Same for Tsushima if it was only in Japanese.
Some people don’t like subtitles (Americans).

JESUS CHRIST BE PRAISED

right, so that's what they meant. when the dude said "a czech dub" i figured he was talking about an extra language option and not the whole game being in that language

western journos complain about lack of negros in the game

they add honorary negro character in the sequel

cheeky

Wut

Usually with new businesses there is a time constraint to push out the first release before the running costs bankrupt them. A Czech dub would have added an extra series of expenses and taken extra time before they could start making money. We can't say for sure if it would have sunk the company, but from a business perspective it was better to play it safe when there was no income yet.

i 99% the game and mastered it on hardcore mode. in german. i still don't remember these phrases sticking out at all. considering how people capitalizes these phrases i thought they'd be shouting them out or some shit. last week i decided to finally look up what it's about on youtube and they're just saying it normally lmao. i'm perplexed

This guy sounded American to me

I loved this game for the lushness of it's countryside.
So many green and strong trees and plants.
Everything here is red, orange or brown. Even the Green is tainted.
Even these things which I've noticed in several Slavic developed games, Witcher, Metro, KCG and Stalker, do not happen in my country. These knurls of root and earth.

dumb czechs couldn't help themselves but get captured by western europeans and now millions of people have to share the name that was the origin of the word slave thanks to them

i couldn't believe it either, complete capitulation

it was so jarring when he turned out to be trans too

weird thing to omit. you'd think the language of its setting would be there from the start instead of fucking french lmao

Everyone in the past spoke English with a british accent. Especially in Rome, and Bohemia was part of the Holy ROMAN Empire. It's an Anglo Planet, you're just living in it, which is why you're speaking English now. Cope, seethe, and dilate.

Yeah, he was.

lmfao wait what? qrd?

σκλαβενοι? idk man i never heard that word in anglo lands

NTA but Czech language is a small language group and these often just play games in English, many times not even with subtitles but just in English versions. Games just have nerds playing it and nerds are more fine with that

what is battle of Stamford bridge

yeah i figured that was the case

Lead dev and CEO want his face in the game

Give him a voice actor that thinks he's in a cartoon

I laughed at how bad he was

The german localization is great

Bloody Heathen! Burn him!

which negative traits did you pick for hardcore? If you know what you're doing are they even a problem?

No, they are taking the piss.

Hanush is based on a younger version of the actor, not the lead Dev.
Same thing with Brian Blessed playing Sir Kyeser

I remember in Pentiment (same era, nearby region) they had an Ethiopian show up for a religious visit. This is pretty much as far as you realistically stretch it and it was pushing it even then because it was a bumfuck Bavarian abbey and was unlikely to ever get visitors from that far.

furthermore it would be quite funny if they retconned an aethiope into a bantu

Brittle bones and consumption seem the least invasive.

this was back in like 2018 or some shit dude. i genuinenly don't remember. i only remember avoiding picking the randomly wake up at random places trait since i found it unreasonable on my first playthrough. also because i was mega autisming the game or some shit, didn't want to wake up at some town that i'm not supposed to get to until 50 hours and "spoil" it for me or some shit lmao
in the end, by the time i got to the master at arms to learn how to fight (took like 40 hours). whichever negative trait i would've picked, would've been a non issue

You think?

This happens often with countries of smaller population and less pre-existing cultural power. They are used to subs over dubs. Portugal is the same I believe, their English is better than Spaniards solely because they grew up watching everything in English.

I know.

Portugal usually doesnt have native Portugal dubs but basically Brazil dubs since Brazilians cant speak English for shit

yeah, same thing here in sweden. afaik the only game i've ever played that had swedish in it was empire total war if you played as sweden. but because of the nature of the game. there aren't many swedish voice lines at all. but atleast it was something

Portugal is the same I believe, their English is better than Spaniards solely because they grew up watching everything in English.

don't spanish people do the same thing? i remember vacationing to barcelona when i was a young teenager or some shit and literally no one knew a lick of english lol

honest and heartfelt post.

Post photo of voice actor and prove me wrong

They kind of did with his art sequence. Sebhat himself is portrayed somewhat accurately but pic related is how real Ethiopian art looked. Compare to

Hanush's interactions with Sir Radzig were really great. This game really did a good job with making its cast very likable.

Except for Johanka. Fuck that cunt.

Sebhat himself is portrayed somewhat accurately

Not really, Ethiopians are black as fuck. He looks more like a Copt

TV stuff is all dubbed in Czechia, but stuff like video games seldom is.

the localization isnt gone even if you play with Czech dub (which wasnt even available at launch)
retard burger

Kek, based

Yes, fortunately he's called Heinrich because its in German because you set it to German
Why don't you try actually doing the obvious thing rather than making a shit thread with a pointless statement?

western journos

wasn't it just literally one retard who's article you guys latched on to hardcore to spam threads about on here while screaming fuck niggers at the top of your lungs for hours on end?

I really hope the 2 keeps the low status feel the first game had.
Yeah Radzig might consider Henry his son privately. But as far as the wider world is concerned Henry is the unrecognized bastard son of a robber baron at best and a ambitious sellsword at worst.

TV stuff is all dubbed in Czechia, but stuff like video games seldom is.

so Breaking Bad has Czech dub but video games dont? Seems like an odd thing to do. I myself dont really understand dubs anyway. Just have translations that do not localize. I dont want to watch Squid Game dubbed, anime dubbed etc.

Alchemy is too easy to cheese for it to be an issue.

I know I played it in German where it was changed to German, and I'm not an Amerilard you dumb fuck autist
You clearly haven't tried it because you didn't know Heinrich's name was Heinrich

first off
1. The game is not set in Germany
2. Therefore I dont pick German dub
3. The German dub doesnt get rid of localization in texts and the UI so your point is entirely moot anyway
retarded burger

i don't remember using alchemy much desu, maybe towards the later parts of the game. who starts alching on their very first run on hardcore mode lmao

manual saves back

did they? Doesnt the game still have the saving system or am I misremeembering and it got "buffed" someway?

either perfect english or perfect Chzeck
when natives speak they do not hear a fucking accent, same goes for S.T.A.L.K.E.R
character should have an accent only if he speaks a foreign language

Most everything else seems accurate, down to gender roles, social divides, religious themes, law, etc. There's also a lot of BTS content about their research. It's a good game.

The only things that were on the nose was Sebhat's art, and Esther being an excessive wank-off for "Jews are very oppressed and it was horrible but Jewish girls are also very cosmopolitan and educated and awesome and yass girl".

It’s the same shit as having Romans with British accents. If you want a true experience just change the language and use subtitles.

whats "perfect English", they have mix of accents anyway
I am not against English dubbing. I just dont like the localization. If the actors are able to deal with Czech names (which I believe they can) then sure

1. I don't care, German did fine because

Czech dub (which wasnt even available at launch)

2. Because you're an autist who would rather seethe about English localisation when playing in English when he could have just used something a lot closer
3. You mean like all the names of characters and places that are 100% not localised?
Still seething at the invisible Americans in the room too, lmao
Did a burger rape your whore slav mother?

last year ago or some shit, i read some comment or some shit or someone answered me that you can now manually save

1. Game set in Rome wouldnt have one language option, latin mostly but not totally. There is no true experience in that part with just one dub
2. Subtitles in this case doesnt work, because if you played it in Czech dub you would still read the localization subs. Its not translating Czech to English. Its not the same. The problem doesnt go away with changing the dub

It’s the best way to make money, sell loads of Aqua Vitalis.
Putting Bane on weapons doesn’t seem to do much though.

your argument basically boils down to that German dub is better than English despite it localizing as well

think about this. If I were to play in German, I would not only have to play a game, set in Czechia, with dubs localizating Czech shit and also have English subtitles that are also localizating them in compltely different way.

that doesnt make any sense at all. Why would I do that? I am not slavic.

i've never seen a non-white person irl, i'm 33

only thing you can do is to exit the game and save. Its basically 1 exit save slot. I guess you could save scum that but not really.
I am not sure if that was in the game originally

Also if it were going for historical accuracy, they needed to be speaking Latin in court and with priests, German with neighbouring lords, and then Czech ONLY when with locals.

You can auto brew potions once you have done it once correctly and got the perk.

right. i don't remember any of that

you're a facs- facksmi- A FACKIN TWAT

I think they could've handled that. I think it was one viking show where they basically had the characters speak a little bit in the language they are changing to
I think that would've been really cool if they somehow addressed that. It does annoy me a bit that locals and the lords speak the same language even though that is historically not that accurate in most of Europe.

I think the reason might be that when video games were getting more elaborate in the PS1 era in the 90s and getting the PAL versions with multiple translations, it would've been really expensive for people to purchase legit copies of games thanks to the wonders of Eastern Bloc economy, and so a proper market for Czech-dubbed games never developed and it just stayed that way.
Famicom clones were popular, and then later PS1 but of course modchipped and with all games pirated.
I saw an old flyer for an electronics store from 2004, which had PS2 games, and they were crazy expensive. GTA San Andreas was going for 2000 CZK, while at the time the average (not median) wage was 18k a month.

Once in a while you'd get something with a Czech dub but there wasn't much of it if we ignore the games actually made in the country, like Mafia, Vietcong and such. Warcraft 3 had a full Czech dub for instance.

HOL UP

SHIT GAME
they made the right choice

iirc at launch, if you had a good reputation people would always say shit like that whenever they saw you nearby, including situations where it really should not happen like here:
youtu.be/vF_KxC_cOUU

my memory's completely busted. i don't remember shit like that at all. or i just don't found it to stand out enough to recognize it as a potential meme or whatever

I think Russian names generally sound pretty good in English; our Czech ones not so much.

I would like it if they had a new York Brooklyn /Jersey accents

ahahhaah my fucking sides

poisons you

Vikings got their shit pushed in bigly any time they stuck around long enough to come across a standing army. Fantastic at hitting civilian targets and running away though, major pussies.

The voice acting was the worst part of Kingdom Come

random Americans

Czechs or other Euros with some weird accent

I hope they're all British in the second game.

speaking of this dude
did anyone else get completely fucked from being able to finish the rattay tournament? i got to a point (i assume like the last opponent or some shti because i only needed 1 last armor piece to finish the armor set) where the game would just crash always when the fight started or some shit

English is a Euro language Amerimutt.

kills you on the road outside Rattay

master strokes you repeatedly

maces you in the face

shield bashes you into the dirt

nothing personnel, kid. Henry's just made differently.

They call him Heinrich anon.

Why are you bringing up Americans out of nowhere?

master stroking a man

Lol gay

I thought it was great, Henry and Hans seemed like real mates.

They were great, I just meant overall there was the odd bad VA

based beyond belief

I think that is just self-hatred honestly

The most kino character in the game spoke American tho

It makes me sad that Henry keeps having nightmares about his parents.
I hope he finds peace even if he's a fictional character.

because localization in this case is done in Americans in mind and it would be dumb to think otherwise

when i played on my first playthrough in hardcore mode. i refused to learn how to master strike because i immediately felt it'd trivialize everything lol

First playthrough here, how long should I train with Bernard?
Also am I correct in assuming Maces and master strike are the strongest melee strat followed by axes with swords just being meme hard mode?

Until you can hit master strokes in your sleep without UI ofc

They were still slavic

Rural pop was mostly slavic. City pop mostly German. Court language was German. There's ingame codex entries on this.

I just fucked off when I got my horse

Not the anon you replied to but why do all German dubs sound like shit? I find it extremely off-putting when all characters sound like they're from a TV commercial.

Master stroke is strongest bar none.
Maces are stronger for just swinging and winning. Long swords have techniques and counters out the ass. Every other weapon class is for larping only.

yes, so basically the wider populance was Czech and the dominating higher culture was German
I think they should've addressed that someway to be honest. Make the characters sometimes hint that they are speaking German etc.

Amerijew divide and conquer thread

Use your jab to disrupt their rhythm too it's almost as broken as master strikes

true, the 'white' thing is just USian gatekeeping or bullying the new immigrants with the threat of being treated like former slaves

They're obsessed.
It used to be funny, but then it became creepy with how much of their lives revolve around thinking about America.

Please get off Anon Babble right now and get some professional help from a psychologist.

until you figure out how the combat works? that's the whole point lol. if you want to learn new combos and shit you go back to him and try them out
because good luck trying to land a fresh new combo you've never attempted before while fighting 2+ enemies at once

Typical turd worlder behavior

you clearly do not understand the society around you. Go listen to some rammstein or something, I think he has that song that talks exactly about this

What country are you from anon?

t. UK

You clearly don't understand something you speak so confidently about. Typical europoid fart sniffer unaware of just how retarded he truly is.

Australia.

reddit preist

go back.

oh, burger identified. Opinion discarded

His quest and amorous adventures are peak tho

most reddit character

ftfy

Even the Green is tainted.

when you visit england you'll realise that grass home in australia is fake.

tell me you are an American without telling me you are an American

Ah I see, you like the countryside greenery because of genetic blood memory, anon. Aussie land, although it has interesting fauna, the flora is not European and you strive to R E T V R N home.

Norf FC bloke on a medieval diet

Will you fags stop seething about Americans and talk about the game? Vavra even calls out you lousy bastards as the pathetic, talentless nigs you are.

You are very epic for being contrarian.

you're brown

Bros, will she be in the sequel?

Theresa.jpg - 1440x1920, 164.32K

he is clearly talking about a different subject though

this thread is filled with crybabies whining that the game was made with American (English) localization in mind thoughbeit

First playthrough here, how long should I train with Bernard?

until you figure out the basics and understanding how the combat really works
if you really wanna be strong learn masterstrikes but it's not really necessary unless you're outnumbered or undergeared
i played through the game once without masterstriking on purpose and just won most engagements on clinch + mace to the head

No and good riddance

I'm sort of pink

woke game/woke dev supports globalization

No surprise.

Blacked Peter

What did Warhorse mean by this?

this twitter thread was from 3 years before the game released and none of that was true lmao. what's the point of your post?

The biggest failure of the first game was how your closest friends disappear after you finish their questline. Like Henry and Hans become bros early on then he doesn't show up until the end of the game. Theresa and Godwin just go straight up missing from the story pretty much.

and what he talks about there has nothing to do with that. Do you even English?

Stop replying to bait, retard.

well czechs were always, and still are, larping as krauts

I'm Czech myself and didn't play the game because of it. They didn't have enough money to dub it in Czech at the time of release. What I didn't get is why a bunch of amateurs had to dub the game years later and Warhorse didn't do it themselves after the game was successful.

VO work is likely planned and paid for by the publisher. KCD is a huge game and adding a language that doesn't have that wide of an appeal would not have resulted in more sales. Besides, how many games have actually good czech dubbing?

Talmberg

German, yes

Skalitz

Slavic, like everything else ending in -itz
de.wiktionary.org/wiki/-itz

American's have always known they are the true English. The American Southern Accent is the Shakespearean Accent. You're just propagandized to hate Americans.

Americans in charge of knowing how their language came to be

It's literally a wrong pronunciation/reading errors of old German that got infected with tons of French and Latin words, you absolute fucking retard.
What you're speaking is the 300 yo equivalent of modern day Danish/Netherlands language.
And no, I'm not talking about the spastic modern British English.

Shame that this game attracts the most unhinged schizoautists

Girl doing helping her family during a raid on her village

Wow... the epitome of feminism...

you should've seen the threads before this game released. all of them were about that shit tier games "journalists" article about how this game is racist because it won't have any minorities. and everyone in those threads did nothing except for screaming nigger at the top of their lungs until bump limit lmao

*Girl helping

What I didn't get is why a bunch of amateurs had to dub the game years later and Warhorse didn't do it themselves

Because dubbing a game is relatively expensive when only 3 people live in your meme country

What do you mean? His name is Heinrich. His friend's name is Hans. Everyone speaks German, which is appropriate to the region in the Holy Roman Empire. I had a great time.

what's this dlc about anyway? the games wiki page doesn't say shit about the games dlc's

and very young for his age. or maybe it was just weird

Well meme'd

anyone else remembers those threads?

This shit was blown way out of proportion. There were some Twitter snowflakes upset and I think P*lygon refused to review it and that was it. It was pretty well received in the main stream press.

i know. but no one was talking about that ever in those threads lmao

Mods should add an option to report posts due to being written by brainlets.

Nah i consider myself Nationalist and love my country.

And your basis for this is

because I said so

Please god make them remove Master Strike from the sequel

I don't speak Czech. So if the game was full of bad subtitles into English I wouldn't play it.

I got a glitch where a dude that I killed respawned after a certain amount of time and when he respawned he remembered that I committed a crime and kept reporting me to the guards mid tournament canceling the tournament and fucking me over

Maybe if your idea of feminism is a woman doing literally anything but crawling into a fetal ball and waiting to help when faced with a dire situation.

American bait

Bohemia was part of the Holy Roman Empire of German Nation and also had a very large German population.

NTA I never finished kingdom come but I did play that, from memory it’s fucking awful but it’s about what was teresa doing when Amal it’s got raided. There was a long drawn out mission where you have to go pick a fuck ton of flowers and avoid cumans (unless you have a bow you might be able to kill one or two) and I remember being stuck in a a rack mine with no torch for 30 minutes

Amal

I typed skalitz wtf just outed myself as a phoneposter with autocorrect

fair enough

ESL moment

1st half misery porn flashback sequence where protagonist's love interest nearly gets sold into marriage, nearly raped, watches all her family members die, and fails at an attempt to kill herself.
2nd half is becoming bible lawyer to stop a schizo woman who receives visions from the virgin mary from being taken away by an Inquisitor.

Couldn't you set the VO language and subtitle language separately?
Also majority of names in Europe are used across the continent with just regional variations. For instance John, Jan and Ivan are equivalents.

Couldn't you set the VO language and subtitle language separately?

the subtitles arent translating each separate dubs and are just following their specific dub. So Czech dub, English subs would not work with each other to solve this problem

North Carolina will be the basis of a new Empire called Carolus on the North American continent.
