egads! i hope winterfox isn't the one to do the translation!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

edit: as far as i can tell, most of my game-playing students who are chinese are prone to play RPGs that's localised for chinese gamers. i have seen them playing a number of what i think would be HK/Taiwan made RPGs (eastern motifs) & also localised RPGs.

thing is: many shops don't sell originals, maybe because an original would cost so much as the price is currency conversion plus tax. that's exorbitant. as a result, many gamers have no idea how an original game looks like & they would exchange infos like cracking casually without knowing that it's illegal. i was like that until i learnt from the 'net that an original offers more than just the cd with 2 pieces of printed glossy paper & a plastic sleeve. & that 'original' costs a day's wage, which is affordable for everyone.

now if only games can be more affordable in my country & similar countries, maybe original games will be more attractive. after all, i don't see people skimping on mobile phone reloads or online game reloads. if it's affordable enough to be attractive, people would flock to it.

remember; asians have different perspective from americans or europeans, so u cannot lump them under the same train of thought.

anyway, good to see that larians remember asian gamers. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
