    It's not really an issue, it's easily understandable, but there were people having trouble understanding "laid with a dragon" too so you never know...

    Shakespearian way of speaking with some chars, this must be really annoying, I know that some players I play with have troubles because they don't have their languages supported by the game so they play in english and everytime middy is talking they are like " What the fuck is he saying ?"

    That doesn't make it fancy or obfuscating. It just means some people don't know the phrase.

    Some people not knowing the phrase doesn't make it a hard phrase to understand. It means that, for whatever reason, those people haven't been exposed to the phrase before and can't guess its meaning.

    You're defending the localization against something that was never meant as an attack. There's a towel. I'm throwing it in.
