A KotC review...IN FRENCH

I'm well aware that 99% of the Codex readers can't read french, but I didn't find any proper KotC review that's not written in English so i thought I should do one. Feel free to use Google translation and ridicule me. To the few people that DO speak french (Mortmal, Gragt, L'ennui ?), don't bother looking at the rest of the blog as I just started it and it's still empty.

Yes only a few codexers can read french, well i think gragt is probably too busy spending "quality time" with his family to read it .
Stangely theres no grammatical errors and typos, that means you ve been in a private school or lkely are as old as me ,or even more likely not a french .Probably from belgium or switzerland,id say switzerland as in belgium with their bandwith quota they couldnt have uploaded so much text.
Good review in a superior language!

Not a bad review for a lesser language. :salute:

Your commentary on the game being unrelated to character sex lives will not endear the game to many here though.

Nice of you to include some of the tactical details as well, especially the Golems healing ability. I will always say it though: Mages and their wacky costumes, do you really think this wouldn't attract attention from just about anything? :smug:

C'est très bien écrit, félicitations. Histoire de faire mon chieur, la seule faute que j'ai relevée : "même si de nombreuses batailles scriptées vous place dans une position délicate dont il faudra vous extirper". C'est "placent".
Content de voir qu'il reste des gens qui pratiquent un français et des jeux vidéo de qualité dans ce monde de demeurés à demi analphabètes.

Eh bien, c'est une langue en déclin après tout ....

Ok, I have to clear my mind now. Terrible language...

Culturewise, the whole world is in decline. The rest of the world can go full retard for all I care but I do care about the place I live. France should not can into decline. I live there goddammit !

I am not sure about the whole world, china is on the rise.
In france its far more than decline its decadence, north of france is similar to a third world country. No jobs, Healthcare is similar to third world country, recently the local hospital (maubeuge)sent two dead guys for organ recovery in lille, except... when at lille they noticed the guys were not completely dead. Thats just trivial here, one of the previous surgeon was jailed for crime against humanity,no less , he was coming from rwanda and involved in genocide, they hire anyone they can get as no one want to work here.

Hah

Les francais sont hyper hyper butthurt a cause de la chute de la civilisation francaise.

Peut-etre si on expulse plus des romanis on peut sauver la culture francaise?

Vive Sarkozy!

review has one major flaw: it's written in incomprehensible gibberish. Yes, I know. I had french in school for 5 years, unfortunately the language is utterly useless so I forgot everything. I tried to sing sur le pont d'Avignon... but it didn't help. You could at least put up a translated version for the rest of the world ffs

Non ,mais tres proche de lille .
Expulser une poignée de roms ne rsique pas de sauver la civilisation française . Un peu de protectionisme peut être, un partage equitable des richesses et recommencer à produire localement aurait plus d'effet.C'est la mondialisation et la speculation financière qui nous ont mis la dedans.

Saying that X or Y is in cultural decline doesn't make any sense, culture is something that is by definition aristocratic so of course if your standards for culture are popular, everything is in decline. But it's not like at the peak of French culture in the 18th century 90% of the population weren't fucking retarded, which is the same now, except that everyone think they're smart because, you know, democratic prejudices and all that

It's a myth, public school in Belgium is a fucking joke. I dunno, maybe it's not so bad in Flanders (you know, where all the money is), but I can say for sure everything I know come from my parents, who studied in France. Then again, with all the shit going here we'll probably be french in a couple years.

I've got a feeling much of the cultural decline can be traced to the genetic paddling pool that Gragt has been wading in.

Inbreeding was the downfall of the Habsburg's after all.

In 18th the common people were uneducated, illiterate yes but at least they were doing quality craftmanship and quality work. Decline started after may 68 and more important oil crisis.Now with mondialisation, mainstreaming its much more than decline its falling from a plane without parachute. Those mainstream artists even use our historical jewels to raise the price of their " art" with complicity of our elites. if this doesnt open your eyes , nothing will:

Well it was much more common for belgians, to know several languages (french german , english, dutch) AND forgotten ones like latin and greek. Maybe public school is a joke in belgium but its even worse in france, and it get worse and worse each years.
I dont know why you want to join france, wallonie should join luxembourg, theres much more money there.

Tant de francophones sur le Codex. C'est émouvant. La culture française n'est pas morte ! Allons enfants de la... Euh, non.

I liked your review by the way. You didn't fall into the usual Codex tropes (elitism, butthurt, snobbery...) and that sure is hard when talking about a niche game like KotC.

Juste histoire de fignoler, dernier paragraphe :
"et qui se paye en outre le luxe de s’étendre sur une bonne vingtaine d’heure." Ça sent la fatigue.

Les Allemands n'ont pas besoin de comprendre le français. Les feuilles de route de la France ont toujours été ensemble ils avaient besoin. :smug:

For the benefit of Ventilator. Forgive me, my German is not nearly as good as my decline language above;

Die Deutschen brauchen nicht zu verstehen, Französisch. Die Fahrpläne von Frankreich seit jeher alles, was sie brauchte.
