Greetings! Today we'll about an issue that does concern multiple Battlegrounds cards and a part of the UI. There are two ways in which Hearthstone localizes "minion with no type" in Italian, and this is a source of confusion. 1/6 🧵

Last week, patch 43.0.2 addressed 7 of our reports on Hearthstone localization 🥳 Let's briefly review them. 1/5

Yesterday we found two new formatting errors in italian Hearthstone cards. Normally, Arcane Barrage and Jade Lighting (CoT version) text i fine, but if there is Spell Damage in play things go wonky 😬 Unluckily, this is not the first time. 1/4 🧵

Happy Across the Timeways release day! Yesterday I published a list of new localization errors, but today we're celebrating with a list of fixes that have been implemented since patch 33.6. 1/7 🧵

Across the Timeways is out tomorrow! I've been busy last week, but let's not waste any TIME and get straight to the latest card reports. Tomorrow I will post a thread with the latest corrections. 1/10 🧵

Across the Timeways pre-patch release is scheduled this week. After that, I will begin checking for any localization fixes and the new cards. Let's hope for lots of fixes! 🤞 🤓

First check for Timeways cards italian localization! The Eternal Hold card is (confirmed by Leo Robles on Twitter) a "type of jail" but the italian name can only mean Infinite Wait. Two better names would be Prigione Eterna (Eternal Prison) or Prigione Infinita (Infinite Prison).

In the weekend we found a new error in the Battlegrounds cards: like Prized-Promo Drake from a few weeks ago, + symbols left the Mrglin' Burglar text.

After patch 33.6, there were two localization fixes (and a third bonus) for Battlegrounds. Yay! 🥳 In addition, in this thread we report two new errors in the heroes' voicelines. 1/7 🧵

Salvo pointed out something that had always been right in front of my eyes. The Battlegrounds minion Crater Miner mentions “1 Mana Spell” when the resource is actually Gold.

Taking a break from my commitments to report a localization error in the patch notes. In Italian, it appears that the Mission requirement has been reduced, but in reality it has changed from “play” to “buy.”

After an initial check, yesterday's patch does not appear to have addressed any of our reports. I will update the report sheet as soon as possible, and later I will post a summary on the mini-set localization.

Some good news from the latest patch: in Italian, Felscreamer no longer has Deathrattle instead of Rush 🎉

A new report, thanks to Salvo: Yellowbrow Faelin has at least one English voiceline in the Italian client. Unfortunately, neither of us has this skin. If there are any other wrong voicelines please let us know.

After reviewing the localization errors in traditional Hearthstone, it's now time for Battlegrounds. Firstly, we really have to thank the developers for the Battlegrouds Guide, it's a lifesaving feature for us! 1/8 🧵

We're back! Let's pick up where we left off. From a localization standpoint the release of The Lost City went well, with few serious errors and even some corrections. Since a new Battlegrounds patch is coming, there will be no reports for that mode in this thread. 1/6 🧵

We respect Hat's willingness to move on, but this news remains some of the worst Hearthstone news in years 🙁

Something came up and I didn't even have time to play the new expansion properly. Reports will be back as soon as possible, promise!

Hat is an indispensable point of contact between the community and Blizzard; our project owes him a lot, too. We hope that everything will work out for the best.

Good news everyone! The name of the Lost City of Un'Goro expansion is now in the correct language in the web gallery 🎉 bsky.app/profile/proj...

Community Manager RidiculousHat confirmed that the recent errors only affect the web gallery. We will continue to report here individual errors we find, after the pre-patch is released we will update the report sheet with errors found in game. Just found: a token error.

There was a bit of an stir in the Hearthstone twittersphere yesterday after not-native English speakers noticed that their version of Entomologist Toru had a completely different effect from the English version. This included Italian. 1/5 🧵

A new voiceline report, thanks ‪@silentnick.bsky.social‬ for pointing it out. All the Endbringer Umbra voicelines (summon, attack, death) are spoken in English in the italian client.

A localization error for Lost City of Un'Goro, but this time it does not involve a card but the official website. In the Italian web gallery, the name of the expansion is in English.

I have been caught up in some obligations, but I managed to find an error among the Lost City of Un'Goro cards: the Italian version of Ancient Raptor summons plants with Battlecry and not with Deathrattle.

A new Battlegrounds formatting error, this time it's for one of Tavish's Hero Power options. The error repeats even as the numbers increase.

I'm slowly going through the report spreadsheet, hope to make a thread this week. In the meantime, I found a new error: the second choice of Time Management (Battlegrounds' Spell) is missing the + signs.

Patch 32.2 arrives tomorrow, bringing both new cards for Battlegrounds and traditional Hearthstone. Of the latter we know nothing yet, but of the former we can see them on the official gallery. At the moment among the minions I have found only a couple of spacing issues.

Lots of new cards are coming to Hearthstone next week, but in the meantime let's catch up on the localization fixes that came with patch 32.0.3. Being a data-only patch we had to search manually, thanks to Salvo for helping me out with the voicelines. 1/6 🧵

I have almost finished my obligations, as of tomorrow this profile will become active again 😎

I'm busy these days and haven't been able to make a proper post yet, but patch 32.0.3 has been GREAT for Hearthstone Italian localization. Thank you very much Team 5 🥳

We briefly interrupt our games in the Emerald Dream for a new localization report: the Legacy version of Animal Companion is different from the Standard version. Another small thing: only in Italian “Beast companion” is partially capitalized, in English it is not.

In truth, I don't even like Hearthstone.

Happy Emerald Dream release day! 🥳 To celebrate I have prepared a thread dedicated to the Italian localization of patch 32.0. The good news is that, in game, there are far fewer new errors than usual, so I have focused on a few unaddressed ones. 1/7 🧵

Another report that I had missed, probably for weeks: in Slitherspear, Lord of Gains text the word Naga is singular, the same error of Athissa. I put all the blame on languages with words that can be both singular and plural 😠 bsky.app/profile/proj...

Naralex's Italian title means Herald of the Fly, and is inconsistent with actual Warcraft localization. In Warcraft the term for a Dragonflight is “Stormo dei Draghi” and in Hearthstone we already had Flight of the Bronze. The italian title should be "Araldo degli Stormi".

In anticipation of a review of the latest Hearthstone patch, I report that the text of A Light in the Darkess has been fixed after 565 days since it was first reported 🎉 Unfortunately False Disciple still has the same error that Light had, but hopefully it will be fixed soon.

Thanks to a report from Salvo we learned about a new type of error: spacing problems with Spell Damage 😅

Yesterday I was watching @silentnick.bsky.social try out the Emerald Dream cards, and I saw that the Italian localization of Grove Shaper has already been fixed 🎉 Lets hope for more good surprises on March 18 🤞 bsky.app/profile/proj...

Here is my Theorycrafting Event Video for @PlayHearthstone next expansion “Into tge Emerald Dream” coming march the 25th! #hearthstone #theorycrafting #emeralddream www.youtube.com/live/9hfWadM...

It has been more than a year since the introduction of this Reward in Hearthstone Battlegrounds, but only recently did it occur to me. Does this artwork reference Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron or is it just a coincidence? 🤔

Yesterday I did the first thorough check of the localization of the Emerald Dream cards and wrote 11 reports in the spreadsheet. A thread with the most noteworthy ones. 1/6 🧵

If you missed my Hearthstone initiative last week, here's a nice summary thread. For 7 days, I shared some of the older Italian localization reports that are still unaddressed. This is just a sample of the MANY errors in the Hearthstone Italian localization. 👇

Day 7 of my Hearthstone Italian localization initiative: for 7 days, once a day I share an old report that is still unaddressed. Flavor text of Once Upon a Time... found on 2024/03/03. Earthen is translated as terrestre but the official Warcraft term is Terrigeno (capitalized).

Day 6 of my Hearthstone Italian localization initiative: for 7 days, once a day I share an old report that is still unaddressed. Opponent's Forge tooltip in the game timeline, found on August 13, 2024. Just bad formatting (there are several of those in the report list 😅).

Day 5 of my Hearthstone Italian localization initiative: for 7 days, once a day I share an old report that is still unaddressed. Kologarn, found on 2023/09/14. The second half of the text says "Deathrattle: Move one of them, chosen randomly, from your hand to your opponent's."

Day 4 of my Hearthstone localization initiative: for 7 days, once a day I share an old report from the spreadsheet that has not yet been addressed. Today is one about gender. From 2023/08/31. DiscepolO di Amitus should be called DiscepolA di Amitus. More context in comments.

Day 3 of my Hearthstone card localization initiative: for 7 days, once a day I will share a report from the spreadsheet that has not yet been addressed. A Light in the Darkness (both versions); found on August 31, 2023. The Italian text is "Discover a minion WHO IS A PALADIN".

Day 2 of my Hearthstone card localization initiative: for 7 days, once a day I will share a report from the spreadsheet that has not yet been addressed. Custumed Singer; found on March 14, 2024. English voiceline in the Italian client.

We're already on our second post today, a freshly baked report of the same type. Lately, typography has become more and more of a personal pet peeve of mine. 🥲
