| iFlower7 said: The Scandinavian publisher of Sony games have translated many of the games into Swedish. Even Resistance 2 which is rated 18+ iirc, and it's fucking ridiculous. It totally destroys the experience so of course I changed to English. I feel sorry for all the people in Germany and France and such that have to watch their movies and play their games in German/French etc. No wonder they suck at English there. :P |
I have to disagree.
Maybe you're right with games, but I do think movies should be dubbed in the native language.
1st: If you look at Germany, the German language is endangered. Most of the young people here already use too many English words and their German counterparts are getting lost. I can't imagine how this would continue if movies are in English.
A cultural shame !
2nd: I think the quality of movies increases with dubbing !!! In Hollywood movies you have great actors, but many of them can't express emotions with their voices - only with their acting.
I watched a part of Lord of the Rings in English and I thought it was boring as hell. I loved the same scene in German, because of the better voices.
