Hi Folks, I gut a question. I'm a german guy and I think in the original language HL2 will rock more than in the localized german language version. Do you know if it' will be possible to change the language later? I would like to play it in german, because the Story is very important to me and I wanna minimize the risk to miss something. perhaps when I played it one times, I would like to play it in the original english version. Will that be possible?

most likely they wouldnt reckon on say evryone in Germany speaking German so they would include other languages.

That's fine. In hlportal.de someone had the official answer: english is standard - with preload seven you can download for example german. Later you may switch the languages in steam. Cool.

they showed on the first E3 trailer how easy it is to change charactors mouth movement to a different lanuage, everyone knows English anyway so i dont see why they bother :):

i might play the French version to help me learn French

They said there will be subtitles. But, I do think they'd be in the same language. IE, Jap talk=Jap subs. Maybe you can make a combo where you choose what talk you want and what sub you want. :)

You could always just unistall it and re-install it using the language you want (assuming you're using the DVD, not Steam, version)

I hope that the game come with ALL the subtitles, for example I want to hear the voices in english but the subtitles in spanish (because the voice acting in english is so much better than in spanish).
