Dutch add - Morax - 04-23-2007
Hello,
I must say I really enjoy your game! Magnificent!
There was one thing I stumbled upon which caused my left eyebrow to raise just a bit (see attachment).
While 'storage' is English and the signs are probably universal, the text is in Dutch. I admit I haven't finished the game yet so there might be a chance that there is an explanation for this, or it's just an in-game joke
Well the English translation is more or less obvious "In case of fire or emergency, call xxx"
In case somebody would be interested, 010 is the netnumber for the Rotterdam region, and that particular numbering system has been in use since around 1950

Heh. Interesting detail.
Maybe they localize the texture but they only change the title. Which language is your version?

I'm using the standard(?) multilingual version, set to English. But I don't know if there is a Dutch localisation of it, since we're used to getting UK-versions (unlike some other European countries, like Germany, France, Spain, etc.). Sometimes if we're very lucky a game contains manual in Dutch.

I got it from bol.com, but I recently saw that they (should) have it at dynabyte's and you can even order it at the free record shop.
Could have been much worse, which isn't uncommon here with "less-than-popular" kind of games. :/

Alternatively, you could ask a beyond-the-border friend to order it via German Amazon
If you live close to Belgium, you are most likely quite close to Aken too ^^
The sign might be written in Dutch because there was a Dutch security person in the mine ^^

Dutchie here too.
Bought it at the Media Markt.
RE: Dutch add - Dark - 04-28-2007
couldnt find it anywere :p (not even in the game mania)
but i have it (legal for anyone asking) so its no big deal for me, but i do think it would suck for other people who want to have a boxed version
