No multilanguage on Steam?

Post » Sun Oct 16, 2011 10:45 pm

This German Fansite said that germans are not allowed to change the language on steam:
http://www.tes-5-skyrim.de/component/content/article/2-news/176-videomaterial-von-gamestop.html

"Die deutsche Version von Skyrim kann man nicht auf Englisch oder andere Sprachen umstellen"
"The german version of Skyrim can not be changed to english or any other language"


Why did you do that?
I already pre-order the CE from UK, will i be able change the english version to german over steam?

Edit:
it was said by PR Guru Peter Hines (nice man, i saw a interview at PC games)

@DCDeacon 60% of Germans also would like to play Skyrim in English. Will it be possible?

@derariii No. Only in German for German version.

Since you bought the english version, I doubt you can switch to the German version.

And on top of that he may not even be able to activate the English version in his region.

I wonder how many people who followed the advice to order off amazon.co.uk because it's cheaper when they don't live anywhere near the UK are going to end up with expensive coasters on 11-11-11.
