1.2 Translation Group
Gaueko: We are working nice and fast. With the new help we have we think we will be able to make both checks before Steam.
Q: both checks?
A: Yes. As I said previously, we will make two checks. First one is just to check grammar and spelling mistakes (or translation ones if they are needed). And after that we will make a second check to fix the Lore mistakes. Or any other thing we find that is not related with grammar or spelling. We thought in this two checks since we thought it was better to have the first check done before Steam, and focus on the rest after that. But we want to make the Steam release bit later (still not decided) to have more time, not only Translators, every one. But Translation Team is working very good, so maybe we have time for both.
Q: "We want to make the Steam release bit later (still not decided)": if not decided, later than what then?
A: We have lot to do, so we need it; we need more time for sure. What is not decided is how much more yet. First idea was to release this month, but there is still much more to do. And even if the translations are going pretty good, we were given one month the first time. But that is not posible with all the amount of files we have to check.
1.3 Communication & Marketing Group
The work is still in progress on Steam Ryzom page, to add description of the game, representative screenshots (so not edited, with and without interface), and to select videos.
Q: So i guess guides are part of that work?
A: I am not sure. I think they are. But Tamarea is working on this, so I will ask her.
