I'm here again!
JoWood finally answered to us. They told us the same thing as Atari: internal questions and it's not possible to spread over the world.
So the final situation in Italy is: Atari has localized the game, but JoWood DOESN'T KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ATARI LOCALIZATION, so JoWood is blocking Atari to clear legal situation about localization.
A really strange situation i think, but it was 'unofficially' confirmed by Atari.
I hope all that will finish... someday...
Atari also told us that Atari at this moment can only wait for official announces by JoWood, but NOW the situation appear to be locked Atari said that, 'unofficially'.
Bad to worse...

I totally hear you man. Even just subtitles would be somewhat acceptable. They're just throwing money away.

hhmmmmm

eeehh


it´s not a joke¿?¿¿?¿?¿? isn´t it????

what can i say...????

this is another perfect example of stupid burocracy

don´t know why jowood is blocking atari. If i were jowood i would like one of my games, gothic, to be published in many countries as possible, but there must be some hidden secrets that we, oh poor mortals, can´t understand

when will this situation end??? was jowood the main cause why gothic took so much to be released in USA too??? don´t understand at all

it would be nice to have a jowood official answer, but again, it seems impossible to receive a company´s answer, they´ve more secrets than the FBI. i´ve never understand why jowood and atari never give information to users about games and their releases. Is like we have to tell them "please, i want to buy your game, please sell it to me" this is totally crazy, it should be the opposite

aaahhhh, this mad world

i´ll wait until september and see what atari spain does, then i´ll start thinking about playing gothic2 in english

cheers

Yeah, probably, but WHY JoWood and Atari hide all the fact? And if the question is only money: WHY that question needs so many months to reach the end??? I do not know why: i fear JoWood has locked the game localization until Atari does something, but what? No one tell us, only 'internal question'... for months.

a24710 you posted a great message
