    Furthermore, it doesn't account for all the times the English localisation rids the player of agency elsewhere. Such as subtly using negative words where they aren't present in the other languages.
    And? It doesn't mean other people get to decide what my life is and what I think of it.
    Funny thing is, you say other instances doesn't give the player agency, yet you seem to have a problem with this line that actually lets them decide their viewpoint on their own life.

    You have no direct input on that scene, if memory serves, one way or another. However, Zenos is offering his viewpoint there. One does not need to agree with it, however it is phrased. Theodric has asked for more options in reactions to actions performed by other characters, for which the Omega quest served as a good starting point - that's a separate thing. I don't believe he's ever asked for every character's views to be turned into a customer feedback survey. Otherwise I could start objecting the minute he says "mirror". The German version is already better to me by virtue of that omission.

    and?
    the point still stands.
    He gives it to you to decide whether you think it's a blessing or a curse.
    Not decide by himself that you are oh so lucky.
    and at this point, the english one is better to me
    sides, it's the english one that can give you a chance to response
