Though with Atari publishing the game that might be a bit tricky - to cut corners on localization costs, they cut half of the dialogue from the English version of The Witcher (no wonder people were complaining about disjointed dialogues). Not sure whether they have anything to do with the localization, but it's a bad omen, anyway.

Without a good translation, the game could go from "excellent, a must play" to "a good game, if you can get past the broken English". What I'd like to know is whether the team has realized this as a potential issue or not, and if steps are being taken to improve the quality of the English text. Or, if all else fails, is the game relatively easily modifiable, so that fan-made patches could be created to improve the dialogue?

The team is working hard to present appropriate localization, so the game won't lose its authentic style and humor, and you will be able to fully enjoy the fantasy world of KB.
