I have steam version of this game but I would like to buy GOG version...I can change language with steam easily but my friend purchased GOG version yesterday and he said that game is only in english, no matter he picked up French during installation(!)

Can I change language with GOG version and how?

P.S. To my friend it seems that game picks up language from Windows...this is no good because some people have OS in another language than language they wish to use in games! :(

If he downloaded offline installers via browser, files should have '_french' in their name. For offline setups, each language has a separate installer.

If he has GOG Galaxy, language can be switched in Galaxy settings by going to game page and picking MORE -> SETTINGS section.

To my knowledge, OS language makes no difference in this case. It's possible that he installed the game in French but then Galaxy sync'ed it to English due to some glitch, but then it should be easily switchable back in the Client

How about if we want only subtitles in another language but game in, for example, english? I often do this to learn another language better...it's possible with steam version interface and subtitles to be in one language and audio in another. Not possible with GOG version as I see.. :(

Does Steam version of DDDA allows separate text / voice selection?

Yes. Not ingame but you can select your game in the library, properties and then change language in language tab. You do not have to download anything. Game voices are english only anyway, only interface and subtitles are changed with this. Plenty of other games language is changed this way...

Same can be done via Galaxy Client, for DDDA at least.
Separate installers are available as a convenience for users who prefer not to use the Client at all.

TO PUT IN SPANISH (Or another language)
Example:
Open the file "goggame-1242384383.info" with the notepad
Change where it says "language: English, and languages: en" by language: Spanish and Languaje: es

I have the same problem with Ddda: impossible to have the french language on my GOG version.

I have tried with Gog galaxy, or offline installer, chosen french install, and I have the same: only in English when I launch the game (voices and texts :( )

In the goggame-1242384383.info file, it's well "french" and " fr " , so I don't understand :(

No problem with Steam version...sad because I prefer GOG :(

AFAIK you there's no language setting in the game so you need installation files in respective language. Are you sure you have downloaded French language version?

Eventually, you can change the language with Galaxy (inside Installation management, it will download language files immediately) like I did just now

which means it works exactly like on Steam.
