2016 and gaming companies still donāt get that...
Did you, or other German gamers you know, have to learn english to play a game and feel that the characters are as they should be? Thatās really bad if you (they) had to :(
I think most of us grew up with English and once we understood enough, we just started going with it, but damn... getting the games in English was hard. I think that a lot of us improved their English skills with gaming and I personally donāt know anyone, who started to learn English for it... but Iām sure that those gamers are out there
I remember having to change the .ini files of mass effect and dragon age origins and baldurās gate... or load the files from a fansite, because German publishers didnāt give a damn about us wanting to hear the original voices. And even now, Playstation wonāt offer the English dub.
and just to show how bad most German dubbing is
Mass Effect: Garrus uses the formal tone with a romanced Shepard (like you would do with a boss) ... not to mention that almost all of the jokes are not translated well (same thing happens with tv shows)
