I am swiss and I therefore claim a server for myself and my comrades since we’re not in the EU.

A lot like it yes. It’s an MMO with similar systems, questing, dungeons, raids. They have a NA server and a EU server, they aren’t split up by language and it really isn’t a problem at all.
Classic Switzerland…trying to go neutral.
Fobnop…I’ve also played ESO on the EU server and didn’t have any issues. It was during that big server wide event in Summerset release and folks were hopping from NA to EU to help get players finishing the event so we could all get a free house.
The chatter in chat was majority English since so many learn English in school.

im german and i liked and played eso since the beta. it is a BIG problem there also. its not even close to a community feeling like classic. how could it its megaserver. all you do is play in your guild which doesnt even are strong and longliving. would classic community be like in eso i would puke srsly.
we really need german servers. my guild consists of a lot of 50+ year old people who already said they dont know if they are going to play now. and even if then they would only play with our guildmates. there are a lot of ppl who cant speak english here. even friends of me who are 25 years old cant say more than a couple sentences and would rather not play at all.
theres also a poll that says 42% of ppl wouldnt play a game if its not in their main language andall i see is that this is true. the 25 year olds play eso sometimes btw but they never ever have written a single word there in englisch because you dont need people in eso its almost like retail.

To be fair, 40+ people don’t like those two brats throwing tantrums either, because it inconveniences everyone. Especially since those two brats are strong enough to bully everyone else around.
That’s exactly why we want them to have their own servers, so the rest of us can play in peace.

I would imagine that’s because on ESO EU servers the English language is enforced, and you can report people for not speaking English?
I’m not sure if that’s the case, actually. What I do know is that what they apparently meant by “International servers” for the EU is that the English language WON’T be enforced, which is literally turning it into a battleground.
Wait there aren’t any unarmored mounts? Not nearly as bad as Layering but that’s pretty lame.

The german thread is now 6 days old.
16400 replies. (the german real ID thread in the past had ~20k replies)
And there are still a lot of people writing…
There’s hardly a moment when someone isn’t writing.

Blizz should Just implement google translate to and from a chosen language, Problem solved. Say I speak German, I choose German as my language, then when I speak, my language is first translated into english (Invisibly), then translated to the receivers chosen language. It wouldn’t be a perfect translation, but close enough that it could be understood.
1 million dollars pls blizz, ty.
It’s also legal for an employer to have bilingual as a job requirement and not hire anyone who’s not bilingual. An employee saying “I can’t understand you” is a bad reason not to take people’s money when you’re goal is to take people’s money. I’ve known a lot of places that required it.
I can understand and translate to pretty much every language, it’s 2019, language barriers aren’t really real anymore (only in ignorance). Check out a foreign twitch streamer sometime, and then when you can’t read anything chat is saying, right click chat and select “Translate to English”. How is this so hard, rofl.

Imagine people leaving school with none or only a few years of very very basic English lessons and add twentysomething years of no need to speak English at all. How well do you think that will work?
Understandig good English in spoken or written form isn’t hard if you’ve got a base vocabulary.
Writing or speaking is considerably harder.
Understanding badly spoken or written English is not trivial for a non-native speaker. The only people, you’re likely to understand are your fellow countrymen, because they’ll mix in the same incorrect grammar and vocabulary you are.
This is what makes it hard.
And WoW doesn’t have a translator integrated.

Sounds like an oversight rather than any sort of technological limitation.

Can you do that without google translate?
And can you explain the way through LBRS in French?

What is your point? My point is that with current technology there is hardly any language barriers, this is 2019, get with the program.
We are talking about Classic. It’s 2004.
And even 2019’s technology isn’t good enough to enable real time translations on the level that would be needed.

I assume you are being argumentative for the sake of being argumentative. Sounds like fun! If it’s 2004 what are we doing with LAYERING and BLIZZARD APP, etc? Try google translator on twitch chat using a foreign language and tell me if you don’t get the gist of what is being said. Text can be easily translated these days, if you don’t understand speech then type it out to be translated. If twitch can do it in their little chat box there is no reason blizzard can’t.
Here I await your contrarian reply.
