AnjyBelle Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Just out of curiosity: These "fish people" we have to fight are called "Vodjanoy". The same we encountered in "The Witcher (1)". Is it just a messed up translation in German localization? If it is not an error, howcome they are present in a totally different game-world?

C2B Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 (edited) Just out of curiosity: These "fish people" we have to fight are called "Vodjanoy". The same we encountered in "The Witcher (1)". Is it just a messed up translation in German localization? If it is not an error, howcome they are present in a totally different game-world? They are actually from slavic mythology. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vodyanoy Edit: Ninja'd Edit2: The game has connections and draws inspereation from several religions and mythologies.

sorophx Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 As a Russian, I'm enjoying all of the accents and names half of them are Romanian though (Niku, Barbat etc.) Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland. And having been educated solely by mkreku in this respect I am convinced that Finland essentially IS the wh40k universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vault_overseer Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 didn't mean to imply they're all Russian. Just that as an eastern european I appreciated the references and accents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
