Spell Cut scenes
I'd like to have cut scenes just make it optional after the first time an spell is cast.

Update #8: New Digital Tier, Novella by Chris Avellone, and Translations at $2.2M
If the translations were for fully voiced dialogue (which thankfully isn't going to be in the game), i'd agree with you. I've played some games where English isn't the original language, and the voice acting has been terrible. Gothic being one example. But text translations? I really don't see why the translated versions can't be just as good as original English version of a game that mostly contains written dialogue. The difference is on subtle details about the translation as example a word: weird. That word in Spanish has at least four different words to be translated: raro, extraño, sobrecogedor, tenebroso but you have differences between the 4 words, in some context you can use just one, or two, no more. If the translator choose the wrong one you can end with a different meaning than the original. That's is why the translation by any automatic translator are so funny. The translation has to be of very high quality and the person has to know about fantasy and game settings to make a good job.

Enough money to "make the game" - Multiplayer, modding, language support "open-ended"
As non-native english speak I've to say I prefer they use the money on another feature. Why? Because always the local version sucks. Really, I can't remember a single example of a good translation for any program. The Windows spanish version is bad, the same of Excel and its worst for games, specially the complex ones, a lot of words from fantasy/sci -fi has no direct translation and end bad. Another feature I don't want is multiplayer. I'm sick of the multiplayer wave. Please, I want a good old game to play alone in my computer, without have to wait to meet everyone online to start to play.
