    What dialect do they go with? Words that seem innocent in one dialect are vulgar in a different one. This is probably the biggest obstacle in localization.

    If a Spanish translation is to come, I'm sure it'll be the one used on Spain. I would love to have a more neutral one but Game Developers almost never do that.

    Also, for people saying "How many spanish-speaking people are actually playing", How would you see yourself doing quests in a language you don't understand?
