Risika66 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I guess I'll give it a try once they launch it. I only speak Dutch and English but it should be fun with German, especially since I can at least understand it a bit. On the other hand I'm sad that they're doing different language versions. I always thought one of the greatest things about rs is that you can meet people from all over the world. Now people are probably just going to stick to their own language servers, meaning less interaction between people from different countries.

jwrm22 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Maybe Jagex made a big mistake, because they saw a lot of people talking Dutch, but thought: they're talking German and then thought, let's make German servers! So actually the servers are for Dutch people, but Jagex thought they were german!! German and Dutch look like eachother but are different from eachother, a lot different! I agree. To be honest, I've only seen 3 German players in my runescape career, while I lsot count at how many Dutchie's (no offence) I've seen. I usually notice them in groups with friends in castlewars... loool, that was what i was thinking... germans are just lazy... too lazy to learn english... ^^ click my sig for my lesser ranging guide ^^jwrm22: 4816th > 99 cooking 100% f2p !1172 total! + 140mil in items.i dont play anymore... i think rs is ruined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Devoted12- Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I knew that Jagex would do this eventually. Congrats to them, even though I don't speak German. If they put in a spanish one, I could use it to help me study for tests : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jondea0 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Now all they need is a Hebrew and a French server. :) Barukh atah Adonai, Eloheinu melekh ha-olam, asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotaz v'ratzah vanu. Heh, bet nobody knows what prayer I took that from. : :wink: the sh'ma ? anyway i want french servers to practice my french =) discuss a combat reformation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchdreams Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Dutch native speakers: about 20 million German native speakers: about 100 million. They're not making a translation of the game to cater to the current players, they do it to open up a new market. Which one would generate the most return on investment for Jagex ? German of course. Add the already pretty strong Dutch contingent of people currently playing. It's a perfectly sound marketing strategy to make a German version. French and Spanish version next.

Clown Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Why didn't they do something that the whole world could understand? Like Spanish, maybe.. ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Devoted12- Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Why didn't they do something that the whole world could understand? Like Spanish, maybe.. Then I could study in Spanish like I said before. I agree \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clown Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 The ironic thing is, I finally starting learning Spanish in earnest for the last few months, and when jagex DO put out a different language, it's in germen..I can't really picture germen kids/people playing runescape anyway. ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam007 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 The ironic thing is, I finally starting learning Spanish in earnest for the last few months, and when jagex DO put out a different language, it's in germen I'm sorry jagex hasn't catered to your language preferences. English isn't good enough for you? Jagex isn't a language teaching company. You can learn spanish in school - you don't need runescape for it. I can't really picture germen kids/people playing runescape anyway. Um...whaa? Way to judge an entire country. Oh and by the way, I guess you missed it reading the whole news article, and missed it reading this entire thread before you decided to post...it's spelled German, not germen.

Clown Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 it's spelled German, not germen. First of all, I think that your whole post was much too aggressive. If you're going to say something intelligent, don't act as if you want to start something. Then you won't be taken seriously. The second thing is, I'm dyslexic. I can't spell some words correctly. People like you are so preoccupied with trivial things like good spelling that you can't even understand that some people can not, in fact, spell due to neurological problems. Why is it even a big deal anyone? Oh, and another thing I just though of: I CAN'T picture germen kids playing runescape. Thats my opinion. Edit my post somehow if you wish, but it's what I think, so I'll say it a second time: I can't picture rs being played the the german people. Sue me. ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meol Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 I've really seen a lot of Dutch and Spanish speaking people (like me) a lot lately, so I think they might as well be added soon. It's great I can fluently speak Spanish, German and English (going for Japanese now \ ). Although playing RS in Japanese would be really awkward, with all the text being written vertically... :-k This signature is intentionally left blank.
