You have my vote for a yes. I doubt this will count, but I think this would be a great idea for Chinese fans. Japan already has voice overs and subs for DAO and DAII, I think China deserves the same treatment for Dragon Age Inquisition.

Totally support this! Games like this should be translated to the most spoken languages.


And Bioware, please don't forget about portuguese too! It doesn't matter if it is pt-pt or pt-br but please try! I feel confortable with english but I know many people who would love to play your game but can't because they can't speak english :\\

[Magehand2278]

I support this... you have my support as well I really hope you get it

[Battlebloodmage]

I think EA's target with DA is console's audience since PC is plagued with piracy. China banned console gaming over there, so there wouldn't be a profit to make in term of console sales. EA as a company wouldn't find it profitable to have the game in Chinese. At least, in Japan, they allow console sales over there, so at least, there is profit to be made. I would want to game to be translated to as many languages as possible but until China lift the ban on console gaming, the profit margin wouldn't be cost efficient in term of time and labor.

agree！I wish DAI has traditional Chinese version, like the witcher. Compared DA series,either the story or the system, it should be much easier to understand, but also makes me a pure investment game. Also, I plan to buy ps4, if there is no Chinese version, I would be very troublesome.

[MKDAWUSS]

More languages is awesome! =)

EDIT: Is? Are? Holy crap why did this get so difficult?

I think 'is' is appropriate, given the context. You're not talking about the languages themselves so much as the idea of of DA:I having more languages.

In my mind, your post is a shortened way of saying: "The hypothetical concept of DA:I having more languages is awesome!"

Well, thanks for all your supports!

More to say:

Chinese subtitles are enough. I know the voice will be too expensive. In Taiwan the Elder Scrolls and Witcher are more popular and they have traditional Chinese. I don't know which is the cause and which is the result, but still I hope there will be a DAI in Chinese.

Some of the fans even set up a DA wikia in Chinese. It is not complete yet.

How passionate they are!

A Free Trade Zone has been found in Shanghai this year. Maybe Xbox One and PS4 and more games will be sold in Mainland of China. I don't know when but I hope it will be soon and it may be a chance to increase the sales.

[GunDamAge]

TOTALLY AGREE! Many DA fans in China don't know much about English so they can even hardly understand some of those interesting dialogues in the games.That's REALLY pity :\\
Considering the trailer of China Rising of BF4, I'm sure Bioware can also do well in the translation

[Kobold Sorcerer]

I purchased PS4 just for playing Dragon Age: Inquisition. However, if there's no Chinese version of this game, I will feel really disappointed.

yeah I know how u feel, many potential lovers have just been overlooked since they cannot understand any of the languages that the game provides D:

[TurretSyndrome]

You know you should start a real petition to get things going. Have all your friends and others sign it and post the link here. That way, Bioware will know if it's worth it.

IF they don't do it, in their defense, I will say that it is a LOT of work. Dragon Age has so much dialogue so even if there are enough fans in China to consider it, they may not do it.

[templerC]

eh...I don't know what to say,but,you have my support.

Which Chinese?

The difference between Simplified Chinese(CHN-S, used in mainland China, Singapore and Malaysia) and Traditional Chinese(CHN-T, used in Taiwan, HongKong, Macau) is so limited, that people seldom have any problem in understanding the other one. The CHN-S and CHN-T are just 2 different writing systems, one character has its very exact version in the other system, just like color and colour. That is much less than the difference between Ferelden English and Orlaisian. 
 
As for vocabulary, the CHN-S and CHN-T users may have their own statements for one thing. However, due to the nature of Chinese vocabulary, you can instantly know what others are talking about, sometimes even a slang you've never seen before.

This situation in grammar is similar. 

CHN-S and CHN-T both come from ancient Chinese language(I prefer to say the ancient Chinese writing system), and CHN-S was put in use in the 1950's. Thanks to the educational traditions of Confucianism Culure Sphere, Chinese language users always begin their study on ancient Chinese since very young age(like 5 years old). Now you can see why CHN-S users have no difficulty in understanding CHN-T, they've been trained to understand the origins of their own language before their puberty rebellion.

So whatever Chinese Bioware's gonna use in subtitle, there's no problem for all Chinese language users to understand. Actually, over 90% mainland Chinese players(CHN-S users) buy CHN-T Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4. Others either chose not-so-expensive Russian version, or get English version, which is nothing to do with the CHN-S/T problem.

But it's much more complicated for the speaking language. And I don't think Chinese voice acting is a wise decision. Not wise until Bioware's gonna establish a Bioware Shanghai or a Bioware Beijing.

As far as I can remember, Bioware has had a CHN-S game, Jade Empire(翡翠帝国). So it's not anything new for them. Andrew House has confirmed that PS4 will go into the China market. Microsoft has also invested a Chinese company  BesTV(百视通) to put forward Xbox One localization in China. If you've got CHN-T version, the CHN-S version is only a code thing.

In conclusion, whatever Chinese they've decided to use, there's no problem for all Chinese language users.

A sub should be doable. If they don't have time, maybe they can allow fans to mod the game so that it is subbed in different languages?

In fact, there has been some fantastic fan work done, for both DAO and DA2. Here I can show you what the final work is like. You don't have to understand the language, just check the look of it. Guys have translated all the codex and poems. I personally respect that. But an official version means much more, really.

Definitely support traditional Chinese translation. It's a shame that TW series has a Chinese version while DA doesn't. I know for sure that Bioware has stronger appealing potential for Chinese players:)

 Hello, I am a Chinese player, I love Dragon Age and Mass Effect you produced. DAI's ready to start next year ps4 version, but no Chinese, two in English, I do not very good, so you can sincerely implore the Chinese version. After all EA games basically have Chinese.Finally, I hope you out of the game is getting better, and after the game can have a Chinese version.
