Question about language
   

I am a US customer. I got the game from amazon.com. I wonder if it's possible to switch the language to German?

The voice acting in English really blows. Your main character sounds like a saint. He doesn't sound like someone who would end up in maximum security prison. I just want to see if it's better in German.

You cannot switch languages, sorry.

The voice acting in English is really good.

German voice acting was a whole lot better.

It could have been awhole lot better, especially for the main character.

Too bad the maker of the game didn't use stereotypes like Bioware does. If Bioware makes the game, Gomez will probably carry a Spanish accent and sound like a gang leader of a Colombian drug cartel.

You said earlier hero sounded like a 'saint'. Remember Xardas' introduction saying every crime no matter how minor was punished by throwing culprit into the barrier. So, hero could have stolen a loaf of bread.

The hero could have been framed or had accidentally done something illegal.

He could have been a priest who didn't like the king taxing the poor box for all we know.

Or he could be a really great guy but a pedophile. Like a catholic priest or something.

Notice there aren't any children in the game.

I hope you realize you're refering to yourself... in a not very direct way...

I joke a lot. I guess I should have properly introduced myself and say so first.

I hope people can seperate between jokes and ....um... jokes.

Don't worry about it. I was joking too... Sometimes I my humor gets sarcastic and satirical.
