🧵 Sorry for reposting the poll, decided to add another option
I am localizing the game, this poll is just for my interest
Summarizing what I put in the other thread: I would play it in my own language if I were in charge of translating it, but would play in English otherwise
lmao I screwed this question up so hard, it's not a yes or no
WHATEVER I'm leaving it
You get the gist
D - No, I would play in any language
I was gonna say it but then got called away and was like "Eh whats the worst that could happen"
I’m primarily an English speaker and most of my time would be spent playing in English but I wouldn’t mind having an easy way to swap languages. Always a good way to practice a bit of vocab
Yes, I would play binary
please add morse localization
add Wingdings localization
add Emoji localization
all text is written in emojis

An emoji localization would go fire. It's also a pretty equally known language internationally. Not many people are conversational in it though.
wingdings would hit harder
Maybe not a language change, but definitely a font change to Comic Sans, or default Unity text. As all professional, big industry games should have.
I'm hungarian, but on the internet, including with my hungarian friends, we all collectively speak English, as that's a language i'm very comfortable with in video gaming, and general internet slangs/terms.
So my answer to the above poll would be "Even if the game would be localized in my language, for the sake of comfort, i would still use English."
comic sans in a nutshell
I can’t believe this. The embed fail gif failed to embed
It's self-referential
Fun fact, my native tongue isn't my most used language
English is my most used
English is not my mother tongue but I would still play it in English.
Although I’ve thought about changing my systems’ language to English, I don’t usually bother to, so often programs see that: my system; my preferences; and my geographical local all speak different languages, and present text to me in some combination of three languages.
Interesting results, but not surprising. Many people here have a high degree of involvement with the game and its community so english is more convenient even if that's not their first language.
Answer from the average playerbase would be pretty different I guess. Maybe it would be interesting to ask other roguelite devs about it ? Sharing experience is always valuable
This poll is definitely going to be biased because anyone that can't read English probably isn't in this server
basically all the people that voted B
people would prefer their primary language, but if theres also english, that they know, then they would be fine with that
Probably why mostly everyone voted B or C, with the majority on C

I want to offer Balatro to my father and he doesn't understand a single english word. Hope french localization is planned !
It is!
That's cool ! I know people who enjoy that kind of game and only speak french too
Hello there! Speaking of what, I'm a native french speaker and love the game, so I want it to be at its best and enjoyable by the most. I'd be glad to give a hand for french localization if help is welcome. Is there someone I could contact?
my native language is spanish and some terms were not so clear to me at first glance and if a want to show this game to a friend it would come with a big language barrier, poker and english, and as someone else said, only people who speaks english can answer it
