Funny mistake in Galakrond's awakening

Submitted 4 years, 10 months ago by

Hey all,

I just finished the 3rd chapter of Galakrond's awakening and came across a funny mistake in the german localization that I would like to share (needless to say this contains spoilers about said chapter). Among the auto-attack cannons there is one card called Missile Pod. If you play the game in german you will find that this specific card has its name and card text in italian. An interesting implication of this: If you play the "Trigger all auto-attacks" card, Missile Pod won't trigger. My guess is, the game looks for the string "Automatischer Angriff" but only finds "attacco automatico".

In what language are you playing hearthstone and are there other weird/funny language related moments you came across?

    I was gonna say looking for a card string instead of some other id is dumb, but at this point, nothing surprises me about Blizzard anymore.

    For a quite a long time the Russian version of Animal Companion said "Summon a random beast"

     

    Oh, and there still is a funny mistake with the mirror from Karazhan adventure. When it says "you have THAT in your deck?" mocking the player, in Russian it instead is terrified of the card played.
