Petition for Spanish Translation of Final Fantasy XIV

[Socram]

I fully support this! I'm a brazilian but I have seen a loot of people give up on FFXIV because our language ins't supported, and a vast majority doesn't speak english, so I totally understand the value of allowing more players from around the world to enjoy this amazin game

Commenting my support for this thread. I think a Spanish localisation will reach so many new players. My partner's Mexican, and having Spanish translations will really help in understanding the story and gameplay. Please Square, I hope you will be able to eventually work towards this.

I haven't been able to invite any friends to the game due to most of them not speaking English proficently enough or just refusing to play a game which didn't consider our language important enough to make a translation. I did include myself in the last group for long even in spite of not having problems with english, and I'm here because a friend insisted me a lot and because there was a free trial. Now I LOVE this game and it has been the first game I have paid a suscription EVER, and I would make an alt to replay it again if there were a translation. But I haven't been able to bring anyone here, they just lose interest in the moment I mention that it is only in english.

Even if it would be true that people from Spain use to pay less for games, just the raw amount of spanish speakers in the world should be able to compensate it. We would be ok with a translation, but a voiced translation would be a great opportunity to show the game's message of "diversity of cultures should be not only respected, but celebrated", despite what many people say about needing to translate it twice to make happy both Spain and Latinoamerica.

Gridania and Ishgard - Northern Spanish
Ul'dah and Ala Mhigo - Both mexican spanish and andalusian would fit perfectly
Limsa Lominsa - Caribbean spanish or just another variety of south american spanish (given how often they swear, I would KILL for listening to them speaking argentinian)

Damn it, I would be extatic even if they only give spanish voices to Lominsian and Garlean characters to fit the evil-conqueror/thief-from-across-the-sea stereotypes and all other characters would have latinoamerican accents.

Pleaaaaase, Square Enix, make it happen.

I'd be amazing if we could have our beloved FFXIV translated into our native language! It really pains me when I try to recommend my favourite game to my friends and all I can say is "It's so good, but it doesn't have a Spanish translation!"

In Spain we have a large culture of having films, series, videogames and media translated into our language, so not many people have enough English skills to play it as it is now and it puts a huge barrier between Spanish FF fans and FFXIV.
Final Fantasy games always came to our country in our native language and FFXIV being one of the few exceptions, even after 10 years, it's so heartbroken.

Please consider this initiative. There are a lot of Warriors of Light willing to become Guerreros de la luz out there !

As a spanish speaker player is always sad that i have a tons of friends that or they don't give a try to this game or they just give up for the language barrier. I will be nice to open that wall and make a traslation to our native lenguage and give us another kind of expirience.

It's reassuring to get here so warm support. Reddit ended up a mess due to certain factors. (I can see one of them doing his thing here as well lol)
