< Quality of Translation >
Hello, I'm a long time follower and just became a patron of this game. I love the concept and artwork of Forager so much! When I checked the Steam page, and among many interesting news, one of the things that drew my attention was the language support. I was excited to see the game has a Korean option. Sooo, I tried it right away. I haven't played it very far, about level 10, but I could tell the quality of translation was not something I expected.
The game experience was awesome and I loved the game but sadly, the Korean option was not one of the reasons. While I very appreciate your effort to add various language options, unfortunately,, it felt like google translation to me (in a bad way).... There are some mistyped words and awkward translations that made me confused. For example, some of the basic materials such as iron ingots and gold ingots were mistyped and took me a second to recognize what that word trying to say. NPCs dialogs felt very out of place, like speaking in Middle English in one sentence and then Modern language in the next sentence. Tense and sentence structure was awkward and confusing as well which is why I gave up on the Korean option and switch back to the English option.
It was okay with me because I was going to play in English and I was just trying out Korean option out of curiosity. However, I wish the game has a better quality of translation support so that I can recommend this game to my friends in Korea. I know Forager is still on development and I assume an improvement in language options would not be dev team's propriety for now. I just wanted to share this comment here, hoping one day you can upgrade language support function, so that it won't take away the pleasant gaming experience.
Thank you for the great game!

When to use a "determiner" or an "article" before a noun in English - "a", "the" - seems quite tricky for non native speakers - sorry :( You did pretty well with it. The good thing is that making mistakes of this kind rarely makes your English hard to understand ; it just marks it out as a little bit non native speaker. Maybe these links could help you. It may help to be aware that a "noun phrase" can be a single word !
