Dear GOG team,
I want to raise the issue of game localizations: I think all gamers agree that we want to play classic games as they were imagined by their designers whenever we can. In the context of language that means that we want to play the games in their original language whenever we are capable of doing so. (For me that would be the case if the game is originally in English, German or French.)
Unfortunately, this seems to be something that you guys pay absolutely no attention to. You generally offer only the English version of a game. I would INSTANTLY buy The Whispered World and Chains of Satinav if they were available in German. Also, I find it extremely strange that you offer Realms of Arkania only in the modified Sir Tech versions. This is actually more than just a translation.
Could you please take note of this problem and in the future try harder to acquire the rights to the original versions? Thank you very much!
