Announcing Path of Exile Russia - HOW?
" Because people from Denmark and people from Sweden do not even understand each other and they live literally next to each other. So how to you expect humans from different parts of the globe to communicate? You need a Common Tongue and that my friend what English language is. But why would i chose English over my native language if i do not even like it? |

To be fair, not everyone has equal facility (or inclination) to learn a second language, even one as versatile and ubiquitous as English. The problem, in this case, appears to be that Garena decided that "close is good enough," and that Russian speakers would tolerate a half-assed translation job in order to play PoE. Would any of us play an uncomfortably poor English translation, had PoE been developed in Russia?
Perhaps, but it would not be perceived as nearly so polished, and it's pretty unlikely any of us would be learning Russian, just to play it. ='[.]'= =^[.]^= basic (happy/amused) cheetahmoticon: Whiskers/eye/tear-streak/nose/tear-streak/eye/

" So, that's a 'No', then. " No. I'm asking for a constructive post with a few examples to back up the claims of a hostile poster who purports to be a native Russian speaking professional writer. And I'm sure you are well aware how far apart what we both surely know I'm asking for is from what you said I'm asking for. |

"What good will it do? Nevertheless... "In this context more appropriate word would be "сила" ("power"/"force"), not "добродетель" (this is direct translation of "virtue" but it is more like "merit"/"goodness"/"good deed", and nowhere near "power") And worst change is putting almost all bosses in new version of maps into fucking small areas, where you can't kite well or dodge stuff. What a terrible idiot invented that I want say to him: dude flick you, seriously flick you very much.

" Subtitles ruin a movie, doesnt matter what language you speak. | |
" I disagree completely and will take subtitles in place of voice overs any day. Voice overs give an awful feeling of desync throughout a movie and tend not to accurately convey the actors' performances. Subtitles don't take a lot of processing power once you get accustomed to them. I can't see how subtitles take away from Secret, for example, in any way.. but to each their own (and this is getting off topic). |

And again the thread is derailed from an actual problem.
Good enough is not good. |
