    Default The NAMES

    Hello every one.I here to ask something that do anybody knows anything about faction characters NAMES. I think if CA use the factions original names instead of just helenized or romanized Names it will be cooler.For example the true accent of Arsaces was ARASHK and Phraotes was FARHAD or Mithradates was MEHRDAD.

    I suppose we won't know until we see some screenshots or get the game.

    You'll forgive my skepticism, but what are your sources for the "true accent"?

    perhaps it's your sig that has me so cautious.

    CA has already stated that all the names and unit names in-game shall be display in the game's main language (that means English if you are an English speaker, or whatever language you'll choose for the installation of the game). Think about people (like me) that can"t pronounce certain local natives words because of their spelling. It's about each language features in the game.

    Well it could be good or bad according to who gets the gme I think the game should just be localized and so adapted to the country it gets released in to ....

    But reading MEHRDAD in italian would just sound as a bad word .

    I think that by default all names are going to be anglicized, or at least made coherent for whichever default language you are using.

    If that would include phonetic spelling, so much the better.
