The Case for Spanish -- A Letter of Hope

Sorry for the necro-bump but I have posted a question/request regarding this on the letter to the producer live event that's supposed to happen after the servers shut down on the 11th. Judging by this thread, I'm not the only one that's wanting to see this game in Spanish (I am bilingual so I can play in English just fine but would rather experience it in Spanish).

Give it a "Like" to show SE we are still serious about this! :)

Perdón por resucitar este discusión, pero he puesto una pregunta sobre este tema en el foro del “Letter from the Producer Live” que se va a estrenar en vivo después de que los servidores estén desconectados. Leyendo este discusión, sé que no soy la única que desea ver a este hermoso juego en español (soy bilingüe así que puedo jugar en ingles sin problemas pero prefiero jugarlo en español)
Por favor, dale un “Like” al link que he puesto arriba para ensenarles a Square Enix que todavía estamos esperando esto 

Hmm, every client is the same.
Maybe asking if the new client support spanish language? ^^

I'm a native Spanish speaker as well, and while I absolutely abhor most Spanish translations (especially Spanish as in actually from Spain *shudders*), I believe it would be really nice for a great deal of players around the world. Some of my friends, RL ones especially, have had a pretty hard time with the game because of that language barrier.

(Also, how it is translated into German yet not Spanish is beyond me)

I'm Italian, and honestly I'd hate for SE to waste resources to translate the game in my language. Their Italian translations are unsightly anyway.

To be completely honest, people, I feel the focus should be elsewhere. In this day and age if you aren't fluent in English, you should *really* learn it. And playing games in English is a good way to start.

That's how I started when I was 6, and localizations didn't exist.

Yeah same here. A lot of my Spanish speaking friends have a functioning level of English, but not the kind of level needed to enjoy some of the lore (especially the pirate lingo in Limsa lol). Would love to have them be able to play this game and enjoy it in a language they can comprehend better.

Dont worry - no one can undestand the pirates in limsa. When I was vacationing in Taiwan I understood Taiwanese (never learned) better then I understood that stuff.

Hahaha! Too true too true. I just about died when one of the elf pirates called me a "tosspot", then when I repeated in my linkshell everybody was like, "Huh?"

Seria bueno que tuvieramos nustro porpio server en ves de estar separados siempre.
