disi: Ich weiss nicht, bei Nexus war es z.B. schon alter Tobak mit der deutschen Version. Das hatte ich bereits im eigenen Unterforum gelesen, allerdings dort auf Englisch.
Es ist immer etwas widerspruechlich Neuigkeiten zu einer Sprache in einer anderen zu erhalten. Das ist wie eine Anwendung auf einer unbekannten Sprache in die eigene umstellen, da hat man auch Probleme :)

Andererseits wuerde das viele viele News-Beitraege verursachen (hoff).

Macht einfach wie ihr meint.

AliensCrew: I think this depends on how fast you can offer new german versions. If it takes two weeks or so for some updates, when it is enough to announce it every two weeks (just like you do it in this thread).

But when it takes longer, it would be better to announce it ASAP. Because I think it makes no sense to wait for three or more months before you told the community that game xyz is now available in german.

MBiL_248: Judas, if I'm not mistaken then HOMM5's German installer still uses the broken gold edition master with a couple of missing dialogues during cutscenes. That problem concerns the German gold edition master only and UbiSoft provided an official fix for it. Any chance you will add it to the GOG version? I could offer you the related files easily (~ 10 MB).

honx: i would prefer asap.
what about german versions of memoria and dark eye: chains of satinav?
these two games are available with german localization everywhere else, except gog.

eiii: ASAP. :) When a game is ready, release it. Why delay it?

As we never know on which games you are currently working we may unnecessarily download German language packs and fiddle around with them ourselves while the German version on GOG is already completed, but only the release is delayed. Not good!

When you mean the announcements in this thread, I do not care much if you announce the updated games individually or in a batch, as long as the announcements are not delayed by months. I loosely follow the "what did just update?" thread anyway and still hope that some day the blue update flags will work reliably. ;)

eiii: Thanks! :)

eiii: As MarkoH01 already has said, maybe delay and bundle the news about the updates to celebrate them and attract more (German speaking) customers.

eiii: I like these numbers. It somehow sounds as if that many German updates are planned already. :D

MarkoH01: Well, why not simply delay the news but not the updates?

MarkoH01: "Shock and awe" is what we are living for. :)
Let those games be dropped upon us!

Patsche85: Ok. But you can ask Deadelic, if you could sell these games with german translations..

Schizo2015: i ask deadalic on Eastern (wrote a email=),but i didn`t become a answer.(sry,for my bad english,i hope you understand it,i learn it new.)

MarkoH01: I am quite sure that GOG would (and should) not accept files from those sites.

Suthriel: To bad, but understandable :) Then how does it work? Do you have to get an original version (from an user or ebay or something like that) or do you have to get them from the Publisher or it´s successor, if the company do not exist anymore?

classic-gamer: Erst einmal müssen die Rechte geklärt werden, GOG braucht also die Genehmigung der/des Rechteinhaber(s). Dann erst einmal eine Originalversion (z.B. von Usern die noch ein Exemplar haben). Und dann natürlich vieeel Zeit. Daran hat es ja bisher etwas gemangelt.

Suthriel: Ah i see. So i could go and check my Archive of (not so) ancient games and look, if you have them already in german or not, and then offer them to you? If you want them would be another question, but i know from my memory, that i already own one or two games as german full Version, which you only have listed as english. For the rest i would have to check your store and my collection ^.^

MarkoH01: Which would include those sierra adventures unfortunately :( It reelly is a shame because some of the talkies here were not that bad. But I know that this is not going to change anything.

Suthriel: Well... i am not sure, which company was taken over by another one during time :( To make things easier, i just make a tiny list, and you can check, if it is something for you or if its conatminated with law/copyright Problems :p

That should it be for now. I found some boxes from other games (like Turok 1, the complete Earth saga 2140-2160 in german, Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe), however, i was unable to find the cds o.O Normally its the other way round, have the cds but can´t find the boxes.Well, there are still some corners to check ^.^

If you see something useful, let me know.

mk47at: That could be really interesting when (or if) xlengine is released.
