Marius Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 In the german version of Escape they made a funny translation error. In his introduction, Charles L. Charles claims he is the future Governor of Monkey Island™! Watching an english playthrough I suddenly remembered that small moment from 2000. Back then I didn't think it was an error at all. I was like, "Huh! Interesting!". Today I'm happy to discover that I wasn't misremembering things.

BillyCheers Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Interesting! Whereas he already has a fancy church there and religion and politics should not be mixed - not even on Monkey Island! ☝️ I'm currently playing "Tales" on the iPad (which works pretty well, actually!). Every now and then I switch to the German dubbing, just for fun. But unfortunately it's not very well done and every third sentence is chopped off because the sentences in English are shorter and no one has adjusted that. 😒 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
