In this huge complex world there are thousands of different languages spoken by many different complex societies. Game companies have traditionally responded to this fact by including versions of their games voiced in different languages, with one major exception:
[b]EA's "The Sims".[/b]
EA's response to language barriers within the gaming community has been nothing short of revolutionary. By having the Sims themselves speak in gibberish with emotes above their heads, EA has transcended all language barriers and made a product accessible to the world (barring Africa cause they don't have computers there).
Now how does this apply to [b][i]Destiny[/i][/b], you might ask. Well, instead of re- hiring Dinklage and the many other voice actors to improve the poopy quality of the placeholder dialogue, they could simply have Deej and his wife record a series of grunts, laughs and other vocal sentiments, apply it to a series of on-screen subtext and voila, we are already cutting costs and breaking down cultural walls (in case you didn't know, multi-language subtext is cheaper than multi-language voice acting)!
This would be the perfect addition to Destiny in order to make the game more accessible to vocal minorities.
*Edit: I am completely serious. English is not my first language and it would be nice to be able to play with my father who does not speak English at all and he could understand the story better since I seriously doubt there will be a Swahili version of this game.

3 OdpowiedziThe thing with the language in sims is cool and all but why couldn't destiny make its own language like destonian

1 OdpowiedźThe cutscenes could be done like the old Lego game cutscenes where the characters over-exaggerated their actions and kind of pantomimed the dialogue.

1 OdpowiedźIt would make more sense that in a technologically advanced civilization that there would only be one language. It would be cool if they just invented a language and gave us subtitles. I would learn the language of the city. It would be the new elvish or klingon!

2 OdpowiedziIf they're going to do this, they might as well go the whole way. DeeJ and his wife also have to record themselves barking, as my dog feels awfully discriminated against due to a lack of lead canine roles in videogames. If she feels that way, I'm sure other dogs do too. I, being a human, feel disgusted that game developers would turn a cold shoulder to such a large, loyal consumer market. It is plain discrimination. Dogs are people too.
