German version

Post by Eric Little »

Hello from the other side of the world,

please con you tell if you have any plans for a german version ? It´s (luckily) a lot of text and but I have to admit that sometimes my english is not good enough :)

But anyway thanks for the little piece of old fashioned RPG, the start was quite satisfactory.


Kind regards
Eric

Basilisk will be relying on/working with fans for localizations of the game.

Best advice is probably to E-mail BW at info -AT- basiliskgames DOT com, and ask BW directly on the status of a German translation, and whether you can help.

Last we've heard, I think there's a BETA French language pack, but no word yet on the other language packs for Book II...

Apparently translations are harder than most people assumed! :P

We're working with fans on French, Russian, Spanish, and Polish versions, but no one has yet finished any of these the translations.

I am hesitant to start a German translation when so many others have yet to be completed.
See my ramblings and keep up with the latest news on Twitter & Facebook.

Based on what BW just said, it sounds like:

If you want Book II in your langauge, you're going to have to translate it yourself. :|

I know that's kind of bad for the non-English language fans of Eschalon. But, hopefully, some will take that up as a challenge to contact BW and try to work up some translation packs for Book II.
