[WIPz] THE ORDER - Fight for the Light! (Thread 2)

Post » Tue May 17, 2011 1:46 pm

How far is this? I'm eager to join it. MY only really annoyance is that the ranks are in dutch from the screenshot i saw. I doesnt REALLY matter, but will it be put in english in the game?

Oh the offense! The ranks are in GERMAN, NOT Dutch, they are VERY different! So annoying when people think they are the same...

Ich geh in Urlaub (I'm going on holiday in German)
Ik ga op vakantie (in Dutch)

Obviously that's a rather big difference :/

Just as a suggestion, Mr. Siikas Imperial Cathedral would look amazing with this mod.

@DR_COOL

There will be a translation when the mod is completed.

@Trademark

Thanks for the correction. ;)

@MelancholyGamer

It is a nice building, but we are creating our own tileset at the moment, so there is no need for it.

Hi Trademark, :)

uhm? I thought about writing you a P.M. to that matter, but I think you are maybe not the only one? Percentages are very high, that Dr.Cool comes from the United States of America and so ? talks American English and in American English (and yes it exists do not start the debate) "dutch" does not always mean "someone from the Netherlands" or "the language" it is referred to "deutsch".

So Dr.Cool said: "is that the ranks are in deutsch" ? and he is maybe very aware that these are two different countries, with two different languages and people et cetera

In the U.S. you have for example the so called "Pennsylvania Dutch" what is the correct term for the language spoken by Amish and some Mennonites (even if he came from the Netherlands Carl Menos the founder of that religion, hope I spelled him right) ? and their bibles are till today in German (not dutch ;) ) . So they speak "Pennsylvania Deutsch" not "Pennsylvania Netherlandish".

So if you ever discover an American on the net who throws out words like "dutch" or "the dutchies" and he talks in a very clear German concerning topic ? he does not want to offend anyone or believes that you as a nation does not exist or is the same like Germany? he means "deutsch" and "die Deutschen" and uses his language (with no "eu" or "sch"). He could have also said "gery / gerry/gary" ? what means also German and not Gerhard or something like that, - but that is a world war two term ? so some try do avoid it and so it is not anymore so popular.

And even if you still do not like it.. think about how many say "Yanks" ? I would say any Brit on that board used it at least once in his life and just think about how many people on that board could be offended by that, because they are "no yanks" at all and say:
"Oh, my god you stupid Europeans! You have no clue about history and geographic regions! You should be more interested in other countries on that planet! ? And what you call a Cowboy, dear people from London has nothing to do with a Cowboy at all! That is real serious and hard job, where you need a lot of mind and heart! You respect-less ignorants!"
That would be the same? You know what I mean? ;)

Dr.Cool used "dutch" in best purposes - you just misunderstood him, because you maybe did not know that? :) -- So please all people of the Netherlands do not be offended if some American call German "dutch" - and please all Germans as well - who could be offended too - right? ;)

Thank you for your explanation, unfortunately I only partially agree with you. I often see that most American english speaking people try to make a joke (or whatever) and start talking in German, as in I start a post and say I'm Dutch and all of a sudden people start saying "gutentag ich bin john doe! Wie geht es dir Trademark?". I'm like... Err... that ain't Dutch. It's just very annoying. Which takes me to the next point, I would like to know what an American English Dictionary says about Dutch, I'm very much interested in that.

Trademark,
please let us end that right here ? not because I do not want to put you down ? but I know that already two guys watching at that thread and going like a famous hand-puppet with a turban and a high-pitched voice: ?Silence, - (Ryan) or I kill you!"...lol

So please, take that somewhere else ? tell me if so ? I ll be there? for so far:
Please take a look at that link and how even academics have problems to describe the core of beginning ? and you will see that in the first sentence the word "strictly" indicates that the term is used wrong according to any dictionary ? but that it is used and is "there" (so it exists) -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pennsylvania_Dutch

Further? and I understand your problem and your point. Okay? - :) - And I have a question to that ... would it maybe be possible - if that happens to you again and before you feel insulted or annoyed ? and bad at the end, what we both think svcks - that you maybe could consider next time, that there is a minor chance that this could be a nice gesture. Somehow. ;)

You take care, man...

Ryan

I'm obviously one of these two guys but I think I will spare your life this time because you contributed to the understanding among nations. ;) But now theres enough said, please continue this conversation using PM if necessary.

@ MelancholyGamer
If your question concerns screenshots of the new castle of the Order I have to tell you, that we want to wait until act I is nearly finished before we show pictures of that. I hope you understand our decision. We don't want to spoil this important part of our mod too early.

With kind regards, Haldor.
