Guild Wars 2

lordkrall.7241:

Keep in mind that even if people do translate it for free, ArenaNet would still need to hire people to make sure the translation is correct.
There is also the issue with the swift release schedule and the fact that it would spoil things quite a bit if the community had access to things before they were added to the game and so on.

We had an internal control system, each translator controlled translations of others and some non-translators only controlled .

To limit the leak of information about updates would be enough to limit a few people (excluding HoT, updates can be managed even by a single person)

Personally I did not know what was said by Tom Gore regarding international IP laws (and thank him for telling us); I still believe that it is possible to find a solution, if it is sought.

Hi people!

Before the launch of Guild Wars 2, I had the pleasure of organizing a group of Italian amateur translators. I can assure you that the amount of work is not binding.
If ArenaNet was interested and provide us with the texts in the original, it would be easy to make a translation of the texts. We could create a platform shared with the Russians, Portuguese, Danish, and any other language to enhance the game experience. In these years I got to know many people who have never bought GW2 precisely because of the lack of translation.

Who cares about a possible proliferation of Italian language in the world chat I inform them that this is happening already and not the fault of the translation, but of players (I have read several Slavic languages, French, German and Russian; I ignore them and I continue in the game)

Hello everybody!
My name is Dario and I’m one of the coordinators of the project “Dante’s Aides”.
Our intent is to translate Guild Wars 2 in Italian. Our intentions are no profit, we don’t want to earn anything more than GW2 have Italian subtitles.
At the beginning of the beta, the other coordinator has extracted texts form gw2.dat. (we asked if we could do to NCSoft and they said yes)
During the beta, we have translate ~85000 text strings (we have ~370 volunteer translators).
Unfortunately, the project is failing mainly for fear that our work is useless (we tried to contact you by email several times without response)
