А про русскую версию ничего не слышно? Будет она или нет? Просто раз сайт ихний имеет русский язык, то возможно ведутся переводы текста. По крайней мере хотелось бы на это надеяться.

[Wizzard 2 929]

Немного подозрительно, что он не поленился выложить это на семи сайтах, но выглядит так как и обещали разрабы.

[Wizzard 2 929]

Ну я бы не отказался поучаствовать в переводе, но для этого надо игру хотя бы пару раз пройти, а это ох как не быстро.

Итого, нас уже трое, кто может заняться переводом - тут: http://vkontakte.ru/club18498195

 

Насчёт прохождения, игра не задумана как особенно долгая - менее 30 часов геймплея за прохождение. При этом (цитаты Винса с офиц. форума):

 

It's hard to estimate exactly because the combat is challenging and turn-based, so one can spent quite a few hours there, but overall, AoD wasn't designed to be a long game. A lot of quests are mutually exclusive. The goal was to create different experiences when you replay the game.

 

The game's strength is replayability, not length. It's not designed to be a huge, epic, 100-hour long game. It's designed to be replayable. From another post:

 

"In the starting town you get:

 

4 main story quests;

 

3 quests per faction (House Daratan (different from the main quest), assassins, merchants, thieves, imperial guards) = 15 quests;

 

5 side quests, including solutions to the previously mentioned quests. For example, IF you're working for the Thieves Guild and IF you decide to handle one of the quests in a certain way, then the price for securing an NPC's support is doing a quest for him;

 

So, overall we have 24 quests plus 7 vignette quests, so that's 31 quests right there. However, when you are playing the game you'll get 1 vignette quest, 4 main quests, up to 3 faction quests, and up to 3 side quests, so that's only 5-11 quests."

 

In other words, it's possible that someone will only get 5 quests in Teron and say "hmm... not a lot". However, replaying the game will give you completely different quests and outcomes and that's where the mountains of text are.

Давно тему не обновляли, вот немного инфы с офф форума (дзвыняйте что без перевода, но думаю и так в принципе будет понятно):

Смотрю, есть ли желающие. Скоро выйдет демка, уже в бете демки 1.8Мб текста, так что переводить будем много. Если, конечно, не вылупится какой-нибудь локализатор :-)

Я готов взяться, но переводить 1,8 мб текста, который еще сто раз изменится к моменту выхода (зная манеры разрабов) как-то не хочется.

Я готов взяться, но переводить 1,8 мб текста, который еще сто раз изменится к моменту выхода (зная манеры разрабов) как-то не хочется.

Если и изменится, то далеко не весь, скорее просто добавится. Когда выйдет финальная демка и решится вопрос с девелоперскими инструментами для работы с текстом - начнём перевод. Я пока изучаю технические тонкости работы с текстом в игре. И да, если окажется, что при изменении/добавлении текстов вся работа действительно идёт насмарку, то будем ждать релиза.
