I wonder if you'll have to wait 6 months to a year to play Skyrim in German. I'm thinking probably not. It wouldn't surprise me, that if Bethesda didn't translate it, SureAI or someone of that nature would have it translated AND voice-acted by Day 3 Not only that, the German version would probably end up better because there'd be more than 10 voices
Doesn't concern or interest me at all. I'm fluent in German and English, and depending on the origin of a game, I will always play either the original English or German version.
Since the vast majority of games are US-made, 95% of the time this means that I will be playing the original English version of a game.
Using Amazon.co.uk or Play.com, importing the English UK version is usually much cheaper than buying a local copy, too, no matter if it is digitally distributed or a retail product.
I'll preorder Skyrim from Amazon.co.uk as soon as they start listing the Skyrim CE.
Amazon is awesome. The CE of 'The Witcher 2' and the 'Duke Nukem Balls of Steel' CE both shipped on a Friday in Europe and I've had both games delivered by Amazon on Saturday at the latest even though they were imports. Both games were much cheaper than a local copy, too.
So unless someone is going to point a gun at my head and forces me to consider buying the German version there will be no such consideration at all. The English (UK/Euro) version is the way to go. Period.
