mdqp: Spiacente can make sense: it's similar to "scusami"/"Sorry", it's slightly more formal and it's used a bit more often to apologize when you can't help something or to express contrition (in "sorry, but my hands are tied"). I think in this specific case it can also work because it can be interpreted in a sarcastic way. It should be fine to use the voice as the base, but I'd have to hear it to be sure, which conversation is it?

mdqp: It should be: "Mi scusi." (unless the actor messed up). This one is also fine, in fact it's a bit better because it's more polite (in Italy you are supposed to use the third person when speaking to someone if you want to show some extra respect, and when talking to strangers it's preferred at first, even if it isn't mandatory).

PraetorianWolfie: This is an extra bit of conversation that happens when McCoy's mood is set to Surly when interrogating Runciter in Act 1.
It does not happen in User Choice. McCoy mentions the engineers at DNA Row and calls them "fruitcakes" in English -- probably something similar in Italian.

PraetorianWolfie: Good to know, and thank you for the correction. It's indeed "Mi scusi" as I hear it again.

mdqp: Oh, snap, so there are also lines which are completely unique to each "mood"? I wonder how much time it would take to hear all the lines in the game by playing normally.

PraetorianWolfie: More trivia on the Spencer/Cash Grigorian thing.
The Italian localization does use the Spencer name as well. In fact only McCoy calls him Cash, and everyone else, including Grigorian himself, uses "Spencer". Maybe the voice actor for McCoy was given an old script and did not come back for the revised one? It also sounds like some sentences were recorded out of order and the actor uses mismatching tone of voice for quotes that are supposedly part of the same sequence/discussion.

In the German localization on the other hand, everyone uses "Cash" for Grigorian's first name consistently, including Grigorian.

Italian and German are the only official localizations, as far as I know, that use "Cash".

In other news, I've now completed the pass of the full transcript for in-game quotes for Italian. I've caught quite a lot of additional issues/bugs,so hopefully we'll have a new version of subtitles soon with the improvements.

I have also started parsing the German in-game quotes one-by-one too and already caught about 30 errors in the first 670 quotes. Again, the errors usually are not that big, but it's better to fix them anyway.

PraetorianWolfie: Hello, everyone.

Version 8 of the subtitles for the original (ScummVM powered) version of Blade Runner is now live on the ScummVM website. The download link is, again, available from our "Freeware Games & Addons" page:

https://www.scummvm.org/games/#addons-bladerunner

This version has many improvements on the Italian and German transcripts and also a few minor improvements for the English and Spanish ones.

Have fun and don't forget to report any issues with the subtitles to us.

mdqp: I know it's been a while, but I hadn't touched Blade Runner in a while. It's still early on, but I haven't found any issues with the italian subtitles so far. It's probably going to be slow, but I'll keep you updated as I make progress.

mdqp: -"Ti sembra che abbai tempo per fare questa conversazione?"
should be: "Ti sembre che abbia tempo per fare questa conversazione?"

PraetorianWolfie: I fixed the other two on the online document where we maintain the subtitles, however I am a bit unclear on this one.

The quote does not have a "questa".

Is this the correct version?
"Ti sembre che abbia tempo per fare conversazione?"

mdqp: When talking to Bob, the machine-gun checking the store disappeared for a second (I was skipping his dialogue). Is that a known issue?

mdqp: A little something:

Possible bug: when using the mainframe to check the car owner, I was told it was owned by Dektora. At the end of the dialogue, there was an extra line attributing the ownership to a different person (Gavin Kelly).

The extra line has no subtitles, and seems to be just wrong in context, since it contradicts the previous one (it also contradicts a later dialogue with Larry, who also says it was a woman who bought the car). In case it's useful, the subtitles for this line should read: "La macchina era registrata a un uomo di nome Gavin Kelly."
