Not that anyone in this english speaking forum will be bothered a lot about it, but the German translation is 1. bad 2. a mess.
Just wrote this to the obsidian forums:
http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/71891-1020508-german-translation-is-a-mess/
Now there are some weird translations, like "25 haut Schaden".
I found several typos and spaces where no space should be or missing spaces.
"Hello! I am John."
could be:
"Hello!I am John."
or
"Hello! I am John ."
I also found texts, mostly in the interface, probably added by the release patch, which were not translated at all. Like "enchantment".
But while thats bad its not a game stopper. What is a game stopper are the weapon descriptions. and the paladin order descriptions.
Paladin Orders show the favorite alignment, but do not show the disfavored alignment.
Weapons do NOT show the weapon type.
Weapons have names which do not make any sense. Like a spear called "intellekt +2"
Now if I want to play the german version I constantly have to switch between German and English and back to German, to read the German text and get the english information.
I attached a screenshot. But seriously you just have to start the game and errors in the translation are all over the place.
So I hope for a fast patch to make it decently playable.
