Yes, I know localization is different,that's why I said localization. Because it is rewriting, though translating also is to a certain extent.
And no, none of the languages offered by the game is my native language, I don't know why you would even assume that, so that's not a factor. If anything it's even more annoying having to read stuff in a language that's neither the original nor your own.
Nothing outdated about not liking things that aren't in their original language. It also applies to books, films, etc. It's pretty normal to want to see/hear/read something in the way it was meant to be to begin with, and not how someone else had to change it to adapt it to another language/culture (which again, it's also likely not to even be your own).
