    Squaaaaawk! Featherless Neuker

    Hilarious as i might find it to be, perhaps a diffirent word is in order for the Ixali to refer to people.

    Translated into Dutch, the Ixali are basicly calling you a "Featherless F*cker". I most certainly got a laugh out of it, not so sure if other people are quite as pleased with it. Better change it now before it gets too commonly known.

    From other people's point of view, I look like a monster. I'm a stupid woman who imagines she can create a happy life by piling up her sins

    I read it as "nuker" as in "one who uses nukes". MAAAAAAYBBE not the best word to use. Unless it means something else and I don't get the reference.

    Does 'neuker' even have any other meanings, other than the one it has in Dutch? I can't find anything at all.

    ...from what I've heard, the localization team is WELL aware of this, and it's on purpose. They use a lot of other colorful swear variants, so I'm not surprised at them using a foreign one.
