Are you Japanese players playing with the translation?
In fact, how many of you non-English speakers are actually using the appropriate translations?
Playing the game in its mother tongue, from France.
Well, I for one wouldn't want to play this in Indonesian. I guess it's more towards the fact that I'm too used to playing games in English :D Also, sometimes my English is better than my mother tongue. Weird.
Turkey :)
Hello from Italy..... ;)
Eh there, I'm from Canada.

honestly, i'm not Japanese, but have lived here for more than a month now, as well as attending highschool here during that same time and from what i have seen most highschool students know probably know enough just from school of English to stumble through RimWorld, at least in the Kanagawa area where is live as of now, and thats not speaking for the gamers, who learn a lot more English through games(on a bit of a side note, i have a friend from Holland who says "I got the vocabulary of my English from games, and the rules from school) .
Republic of Korea :D (South Korea)
heya all, I am from The UK. Also my first post on the forums (long time lurker)

I play Rimworld in Japanese.
The translation is well done, not optimal but good.
I can fortunately also English.
But until now I had no problems and the game is cool.
I'm from Sweden and I play RimWorld ;D
You should set up a pool where you can choose 1 country hat you are from, so we can see what country have most users.

Great idea, but unfortunately it wont work, as the current programming for polls wont let you move around the individual votes. so in order to add another country to the list the votes would get mixed up. unless Tynan or someone else can tell me that i'm missing something. i really would have wanted to do this but just not possible atm. though for now i can do a continent poll.
I assume you mean that the country with most votes should be highest up?
That isn't really necessary, especially if it is impossible.
Just add the countries alphabetically (or random, or whatever), then it will be more clear how many from each country there is than it currently is at the moment (not clear at all).
Venezuela ;D

no i mean if i did it alphabetically it wouldn't be doable because you cant move items down the list in the poll, the only way to do it is to delete that entry name and change it to the other name you want (country name in our case) which would then give that new country all the votes of the country's name that you just replaced in the list. This is ridiculously hard to explain in text.
South Africa here also.
The Land of Aus! ;D
England here.
I am from Brazil, but i use english in game because i also speak english, and the translation in the game is from Portugal and is not perfect.
Am I the first Romanian?

Argentina player here!
Personally i hate playing games in my mother language, so i play on english. Heck i even think on english :p
Heh. minor gripe of mine. How do you define continent? Because if its landmass; Europe and Asia are the same landmass, so are North/South America (if you dont include the Panama Canal) and Africa/Europe/Asia (if you dont count the Suez Canal). Hell I'm pretty sure that you can even cross from Russia to Alaska on foot right up the top (over ice in winter) to other then Australia and Antarctica, everything is pretty much connected
ok, russia is in asia, not in europe :P
mordor! ;D
Hungary here! :D
Latvia, proud to be :D
greece.
singapore love <3
I live in New Zealand, though I was born in England.
The poll should probably have an "Oceania" option. I can't imagine too many of the Kiwis here would have been too keen on picking Australia. :P
