@AndreaColombo - out of curiosity:

 

For the fixed / less errorneous German version we added the missing quotes at the end of the line, because it looks slightly less wrong. I mean: Seriously, opening quotes without ending quotes ... OCD-Durlachion is not amused about the asymmetric solution.

 

Of course, the better way would be if we could safely remove the quotes at the beginning of a new paragraph that belongs to the same person currently speaking. That's why I am asking: Did the devs mention anything like that to you? Like, that they are going to adjust the parsers behavior for highlighting direct speech, which would make these quotation marks at the beginning redundant (and the quotes at the end as well)?

@Durlachion - They never told me anything about that, but the way quotation marks are currently used within the game text is the standard practice for the English language.

 

The convention in English is to put an opening quotation mark at the first and each subsequent paragraph, but use a closing quotation mark only for the final paragraph of the quotation

 

Source

 

Of course different languages would abide by different rules; in Italian, for example, I would put closing quotation marks at the end of every paragraph. So it totally makes sense for you to do so in the German game text if that's how German grammar works.

Ooh, didn't know that, thanks!

 

Hm, if you like, I could try to create a list of incorrect quotes for the English version, now that I know how it's supposed to be. Like the one I did a bit earlier for misspelled words. That should hopefully reduce your work^^

Yeah, that would be pretty awesome thanks!

It's funny I did the same "correction" for the french translation. Even if it's technically correct to only have ending quote at the end of the last line, it's feels so wrong.

Do you have github project? I guess it's easier to do the changes yourself instead of posting them here in the hope obsidian will add them.

To be fair, Obsidian did fix a number of typos hereby reported in patch 1.05 and hinted at more fixes coming in the next patch on page 3 of this very thread:

 

Hi, thanks for catching all these. I'm gonna see about getting these in for the next patch if possible.

Ok, I think these are all the wrong ending quotes. I will also check for missing quotes. But later, not now.

 

If Obsidian prefers another method for submitting these errors, I have confidence that they will ask for it / provide one *broad hint*

 

I'll use a pipe '|' as replacement for the newline/whitespace characters that separates the lines:

• "Carefully drawn" should not be hyphenated as it includes an adverb. Screenshot

• "Between she and I" makes no grammatical sense as both "she" and "I" are subjects, and "between" requires an object. It should be "between her and me". Screenshot

An update on this for you all... I've made most all the fixes brought up, excluding a few cases where what was there was either deemed acceptable or too much trouble to fix for whatever reason. I've also done a spell check on all game text. Oh the deep shame of it all. Probably about a hundred spelling errors fixed. (EDIT: make that two hundred.) On the bright side, White March will be much cleaner in that regard.

 

These'll be in the 2.0 patch, I believe, which is incoming shortly.

 

Also, thanks again to everyone for all the help - we'd never have been able to catch all this ourselves. It's like having to edit War and Peace while writing a War and Peace expansion pack.

Eric, thank you so much for fixing these and for updating us!

 

Having done some copy-editing for BG:EE and BGII:EE, I can certainly appreciate the amount of work that goes into this. Many developers wouldn't even bother, which makes me all the more thankful toward you.

 

I also gladly volunteer to help you with any further textual fixes that might be necessary in the future, if you so wished

In the beta v2.0.0.0684, there is a mismatch between male and female text in 11_cv_ridai.stringtable.

 

<Entry>
      <ID>54</ID>
      <DefaultText>"Rîdaî, please, still your anger. He does not know our customs." The huntress turns to you and nods. "Arthwn stands much to gain from claiming a victory over Fîorm. It brings renown and glory to his kin, a lesser tribe, the Twice-split Arrows."</DefaultText>
      <FemaleText>"He devoted his life to excavating the ruins below the keep. They had been sealed with rock and soil. Deliberately, it would seem."

"Years passed, and with them the erl. He dug his entire life and never found what he sought. His obsession became his son's, and his son's son's. And one day, that young erl broke through."</FemaleText>
</Entry>

 

Same for 13_cv_camp_infiltration_vision.stringtable.

 

<Entry>
      <ID>9</ID>
      <DefaultText>Iovara's eyes widen as she sees your face for the first time. "My own brother, returned home! I never dreamed this day would come."</DefaultText>
      <FemaleText>You venture through the doorway and into a passage strewn with rubble. A spiraling staircase descends to a a lower level where a damp sea breeze mingles with centuries of dust.</FemaleText>

There's a change in Patch 2.0 Beta 1 which seems to be a mistake:

 

conversations\08_wilderness\08_cv_gramrfel.stringtable

 

Change from

 

    <ID>67</ID>
      <DefaultText>"B-but I... Gramrfel, I don't think... That is, he let me go, when all's said and done. Can't we just-" </DefaultText>
      <FemaleText>"B-but I... Gramrfel, I don't think... That is, she let me go, when all's said and done. Can't we just-" </FemaleText>
    </Entry>

 

to:

 

  <Entry>
      <ID>67</ID>
      <DefaultText>"B-but I... Gramrfel, I don't think... That is, he let me go, when all's said and done. Can't we just-" </DefaultText>
      <FemaleText>"Nothing so precise. I meant only to die in some manner that hindered them. It... was not pleasant. If I had had time to think..." </FemaleText>
    </Entry>

 

That should be "Delem's jaw clenches shut", or something like that, no?

Missing apostrophe.

 

"as he descends to have its"?
