Re: No English language supported?

@DoctorMalakh

Just to make that clear in case you missed it, the in game spoken language is English. Menus and subtitles are Polish.  

Glad I got the UK version of the game. The Trial is in polish and it is terrible! Urgh!

Texts only yeah, but that's more than enough.

With all due respect, but what does it change if the spoken language is in english and only(sic!) menus and subtitles are in polish? Should I thank the publisher? Should I be grateful that they didn't insult us further?

This is a story driven game, with dialogue options and - hopefully - a lot of codex entries like in the previous games. How am I supposed to choose the right answer in the conversation, if the translations are sometimes horrible, to say the least, and completely miss the point? And what about the skill descriptions and codex entries? Am  I supposed to look for them on the internet to see what they mean exactly? Because it is far too often when the translations are wrong. Hell, whole characters had a completely different vibe to them in the translations (Wrex, the drunkard brutal barbarian). 

I am at a loss of words for this. I really wanted to enjoy the game, but polish subtitles and menus are ruining it for me. And now I need to carefully choose a retailer outside my country, buy a more expensive copy, probably with a much higher delivery price (I love boxes, I want one on my shelf, should I also adapt for this and buy a key?), just to get the product I thought I didn't have to worry about getting.

I detest living in the times, where the choice is made for me when I buy things I want to buy.  

Have any of you developers actually tried playing any game in two languages simultaneously? I bet you didn't, or you wouldn't dare force such a crippled way of experiencing the game on paying customers. Crippled, because no matter how fluent you are in both of the languages, it is immersion breaking and headache-inducing to listen to dialogs in English and then having to reply in Polish.

To add insult to injury, you offer VPN, traveling abroad, or overpaying for box version/shipping and handling from another country as the only alternative... This is beyond insulting. Mind boggling. Is it so hard to offer the English version of menus as a separate download, like it was done with Dragon Age Inquisiton or Witcher 3's voiced parts? Sell the game as usual with Polish locked if it helps you sleep better for whatever security reasons, but give us an option to play in full English! It will cost you literally nothing to do that.

On another note, I am a professional English-Polish translator, and from what I have seen of the early previews and from Andromeda Initiative videos - Polish translation of this game is clumsy, ham-fisted and will completely ruin the gameplay for many players.

Dear EA,

Your language lock to Russian is absurd. I don't need you to decide for me which language I should use in the game. Is it so hard to give two options - English and some other? I mean, really? You want to push me for a refund just for this stupid reason? I want full game in plain English. Not the voiceovers. Not the subtitles. All of it. 

Best regards,
