The game is only availiable in the language of the country you bought it in.

If you want English you have to buy an English copy. There's no way to changethe language of the game.

Nope, as it would only change the text.

One that changed the audio as well would be massive and would also be piracy as it would have to include main game files to make the changes.

well, i dont mind if the people will talk german... all i want is atleast the text english so i can atleast start playing.
P.S, is there a subtitles option if i would get the english mod.
P.S.S, you ment that only the audio mod would be piracy, right? not both of them?

To be honest, I've never even heard of such a mod. You'd have to either search on Falloutnexus or google in the hope of finding one.

Correct.

However, I've already checked and the only 'translation' mods are ones that are for other mods.

uhh... what do you mean?

Mods that were made in another language (ie:German) and then the makers put out a patch that translates the text so that English players can enjoy it. Sometimes the modders also rerecord the custom voice files (The ones they made) and release those too.

The just doesn't seem to be one that does the whole game.
