Korean Localization of White Martch and Kickstarter backer issue


zfedaykin

Question

Hello to all old school RPG fans.

 

I already posted about same issue, but I think there are some unclear point.

so I post again.

 

I'm a kickstarter backer who live in South Korea.

So, I have a POE kickstarter royal edition( steam version)

When I funded POE kickstarter, there is no Korean language in POE.

Then ,the original POE is localized in Korean by Korean publisher.

But when they finished localizing, the Korean localization service is only available to the one who bought the POE from Korean publisher directly.

I can understand that.

 

Few months later, Korean publisher decided that they give the Korean localization service to kickstarter backers, for free.

That's very generous act and I appreciated that. 

So, I can access Korean localized original POE.

 

But with White March Part 1, there are some problems.

 

I bought WM Part 1 via Korean publisher directly.

But when I play WM Part 1, every dialogue and speech is saying in English.

 

Other people who bought POE and WM part 1 via Korean publisher now can play WM part in Korean language.

Only kickstarter backer can not play WM part 1 with Korean language.

in the "\data_expansion1\localized" folder, there is no 'ko' or 'kr' folder. but there are 'en', 'es', 'de' and other language

in the "\data\localized" folder, there is 'ko' folder.

 

I removed entire game, and Korean localization DLC, and White March Part and reinstalled all of them, but nothing is changed.

 

it is very much terrible situation. I just keep looking other people playing WM part in Korean language.

 

I think this is some kind of steam subscription problem.

Korean localization service is provided with steam DLC form.

Maybe this Korea localization DLC could not support Kickstarter royal edition.

 

Of course I asked Korean publisher about this problem.

And they answer like  'go to Obsidian and ask about it'

 

So, I came here.

 

I have a kickstarter royal edition of POE original(in STEAM)

I bought White March part 1 via Korean publisher(STEAM version)

I can not play White March part 1 in Korean.

I can play original POE in Korean.

I want to playing White March part 1 in Korean.

I think this is about some kind of  STEAM subscription issue with kickstarter edition-Korean localization DLC.

 

that's all.

 

Thanks for listen!

Hey Zfedaykin,

 

I understand your frustration and appreciate your detailed breakdown. We are currently working on getting The White March - Part I and II localized in Korean, and we hope to have in ready in the near future. We are trying to release the Korean localization around the same time as patch 3.02, but we cannot say for sure if they will arrive at the same time.

 

Thank you for your patience.
