Larian was literally pushing everything to get a working game 1 month before Starfield. They simply don't have a didicated Japanese team like most AAA companies. Larian is literally just an "A" company that not even a few year ago had literally run from the tax collectors to survive because of how in debt they were.
There is a reason why Swen always has an armor and a sword. His only way to scare away the Belgian IRS.
It's like you're on the starting block to find an excuse to anything the company could do wrong.
Are you a gay? I mean no offense but it would make sense since the game then would cater to you.
Have a nice day, homosexual.
Japanese people barely ever consume western media, they must make israelites seethe because it’s doubly as hard to get them on board with troony worship as other OECD nations.
The kind of people in JP that would play CRPGs are the equivalent of weebs who go out of their way to read VNs
You think these people would want to play it dubbed?
Japan should be kept safe from all disgusting subhuman westoid "culture".

Japan is the same as the rest of East/Southeast Asia, they like Western fantasy because it's Western fantasy, that's all there is to it.
LGBT shit in the character creator and plentitude of blacks are just weird quirks we accept as being part of Western media
The dialogue script alone is 2 million words long. Thats almost 5x more than Witcher 3. It's just not worth the effort because japs aren't interested in crpgs. Then again, maybe bg3 could be the game that gets them into crpgs?
Nips are not interested in actual RPGs like Baldur's Gate 3. There's no point to attracting their money. CRPGs are too complex for them when they could just be jerking off to 16th year old idol girls.
>no japanese
That's pretty standard. Nips always get fricked when it comes to localization of western games, presumably because sales figures for western games in Japan tend to be shit so devs generally just figure "why fricking bother?"
>They did it on purpose right?
Gotta appeal to the westaboo nips who like to rub the fact that they don't need subtitles or dubs to play the game in other nips faces somehow.
theres already an option to disable nudity in the game so that would just have to be the only option in the japanese version plus they would just have to remove gore and tone down the blood a bit
I still don't get the aversion to gore in Japan. You can have streets flooded with blood, rooms painted red with bood, and enemies with arterial bleeding spraying blood everywhere like sprinklers but God forbid there's some chunky bits amidst all that blood.
IIRC Japan's censorship law is worded in a way that prevents them from distributing uncensored nudity, but not from buying it. So the younger generations all use pornhub now.
They are chasing the normies, the npc, the ones that will buy the game because of all the marketing and because their friends bought it. You can't assume that kind of brainless consumer knows english.
There's no non-English dub for the game, not even French or German ones which is actually rare for major games but not so for RPGs with fully voiced dialogue
I actually hate when devs do this, Witcher 3 should have offered Polish only and BG3 here should be in Belgian French
>for so few people who can't speak fricking english in 2023
Less than 10% of the world population speak english. Sorry ameridumb, but that's reality.
You make a game with only english, 90% of the world can't enjoy it.
Yeah, you're right. There were plenty of 3rd worlders on Ganker who spoke perfect english and still couldn't run the game on their crappy laptop when they pirated it.
They will most likely add it later.

They probably saw little interest for their previous games in Japan so didn't want to waste money

lol stfu weeb homosexual
Kys israelite
>Japanese people barely ever consume western media
I hear north Americans with My Anime List are really into watching anime. Must be a nation of weebs.
Yeah I'd say at this point anime is pretty popular in north america.
The kind of people in JP that would play CRPGs are the equivalent of weebs who go out of their way to read VNs
You think these people would want to play it dubbed?
>8th
>A game with no JP dub
>In a country that has shit English literacy rates
All this shows is that Japanese don't spend their money on Steam games.
You are on massive cope mode right now
>No counterargument
>heaven's burned pleb
>Japanese people barely ever consume western media
you have literally no idea of what you're talking about
Japan is the same as the rest of East/Southeast Asia, they like Western fantasy because it's Western fantasy, that's all there is to it.
LGBT shit in the character creator and plentitude of blacks are just weird quirks we accept as being part of Western media
if you're doing crpgs slavs and germans would be a better bet than japs
Japan should be kept safe from all disgusting subhuman westoid "culture".
The sole and singular aim of the Japanese state over the last 200 years or so has been to absorb as much western culture as humanely possible
The dialogue script alone is 2 million words long. Thats almost 5x more than Witcher 3. It's just not worth the effort because japs aren't interested in crpgs. Then again, maybe bg3 could be the game that gets them into crpgs?
Nips are not interested in actual RPGs like Baldur's Gate 3. There's no point to attracting their money. CRPGs are too complex for them when they could just be jerking off to 16th year old idol girls.
Imagine thinking LGBT shit is better than that
deserved, where is my tsukihime translation b***hes
Japs have enough games already
compared to?
why would they? japs don't like rpgs anymore. they like dress up social chat games like FFXIV and action hack n slash games like FFXVI
japs are crazy for western rpg
this
This unironically looks great.
to be fair, I understand them.
Imagine going from meme Souls to Witcher 3.
More like b***her 3.
shills can't meme
It would have to be heavily censored to be released there.
nips don't like consoles anymore
>PS5 player is a black fish
What did they mean by this?
It will probably come out in Japanese with the PS5 release. I think there's a Japanese trailer for it.
nobody have a PS5 in japan.
Doesn't matter as long as they enable Japanese language support for the PC version.
>no japanese
That's pretty standard. Nips always get fricked when it comes to localization of western games, presumably because sales figures for western games in Japan tend to be shit so devs generally just figure "why fricking bother?"
>gta
>quake 4
>fricking nu tomb raider
Damn, why does Chio-chan have such a fricking shit taste in video games?
Gacha's got the Japanese trained really well on the FOMO
>They did it on purpose right?
Gotta appeal to the westaboo nips who like to rub the fact that they don't need subtitles or dubs to play the game in other nips faces somehow.
And no I'm not kidding
Ban RPGs from Ganker.
I'll ban your anal virgintiy from the realm of reality.
good frick the japs, they never release anything to the west thats good like gundam online and uc0081
Western sarcasm doesn't translate to Japanese
BG3 has uncensored genitals, doesn't it? I don't think you can sell that in Japan. Would need a special Japan only mosaic version.
theres already an option to disable nudity in the game so that would just have to be the only option in the japanese version plus they would just have to remove gore and tone down the blood a bit
I still don't get the aversion to gore in Japan. You can have streets flooded with blood, rooms painted red with bood, and enemies with arterial bleeding spraying blood everywhere like sprinklers but God forbid there's some chunky bits amidst all that blood.
Japanese games have aversion to actual sex scenes too. Most just have Ecchi stuff.
You can buy it in japanese steam uncensored.
It would probably get a physical release in japan on ps5, but heavily censored
IIRC Japan's censorship law is worded in a way that prevents them from distributing uncensored nudity, but not from buying it. So the younger generations all use pornhub now.
>game is available in 13 languages
why is this a thing?
just about anyone who's tech literate knows english
just how much money do they waste recording voicelines and translating all the text for so few people who can't speak fricking english in 2023
>t. doesn't understand business
sorry I'm not israeli
>sorry I'm not israeli
No clearly you're a broke dumb Black person

Probably the same 10% of the world who have a pc that can run bg3.
That's the most moronic thing I've ever read
Yeah, you're right. There were plenty of 3rd worlders on Ganker who spoke perfect english and still couldn't run the game on their crappy laptop when they pirated it.
Japanese play mostly Valorant and Apex
