Merry Christmas & Newsletter

I think the videos of Graal3D look really good. I'd actually love to play it. However, not to be rude, but as far as the Christmas Card thing goes, you should probably have had someone look over the english before you sent it out.

I disagree. It gives the Unixmad personal touch to it.

And it looks very unprofessional to people who don't know Unixmad.

This is exactly why you'll never run a successful business.

A game companies ability to write English correctly isn't necessarily at the top of my list for 'must haves' when looking to buy a game. Sure, you don't want too many issues, and Graal for the most part in-game (including the 'official' servers) has understandable/okay English!

If I want to buy a house or something as important from unixmad I'd want perfect English, but I'm not so bothered for a 2D game!

But it does say something to some people.
You're turning some of your customers off, as opposed to correct English, which wouldn't.

Good thing I'm not interested in starting my own business then, huh?
I don't mind working for someone.

You guys are acting like the English is horrible or something, when it is not.

No, but it's bad enough to be absolutely hilarious.

Hmm, I thought it was a very nice thought (the e-card). I actually didn't see anything hilarious about it, but that's just me....

I have seen much worse English. Never bothered me because I was able to understand that the owner of the game/product was not from the US, and didn't have perfect English. Didn't put me off at all. I can see past it, and concentrate on the product.

Oh you only say that because you read the Zone Forums ...

I loved those 4 videos for Graal 3D. As mentioned, very N64 Zelda'ish. The characters remind me of those, creatures -_-, from Animal Crossing.

Yea, it was a nice thought - and it was very well done as far as graphics go. However, the English wasn't that great, and it made for some fairly hilarious stuff.
