SBT Localization and a roundtable “Language is Relevant”
At the invitation of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Committee, we attended the round table “Language is relevant. Challenges and Tasks of State Language Policy.”
It has been a year since the release of The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe, so the developers added some additional localizations, including Ukrainian.
The translation used there was an old one from the original The Stanley Parable, and it includes around a third of the whole in-game text. We were previously in talks about adding voice-over, so to avoid confusion between the existing voice lines and subtitles we elected not to change anything there yet. But if adding voice-over turns out to be impossible after all, we are definitely going to edit and improve the in-game text.
It is also worth mentioning that the translation in the game is from one of the first unedited drafts, so we are hoping for a patch with the current version soon.
We would like to remind everyone that the original The Stanley Parable is available with voice-over by Yevhen Malukha through an existing mod.
