Yeah, that sorta bugs me too. I'm okay with the occasional reference, like Gaelic appearing in some places as old elfen, or French in Delport. But when an entire city is running around with blatant RL foreign language words as their titles, that's hugely annoying. I could understand if it was a few people having fun, but this is... too much.
I fully agree with this. There are already numerous possible titles to choose from that are already in place, rank titles, ministry titles, etc. Why the need for a bunch of new ones that are completely confusing and have never had any base in the game before? then again the entire "Special language" thing has always annoyed my before. The Blacktalon with their crow tongue for example.. you already have that.. it's a skill that allows you speak in Crow so that only others who can speak that language can hear you. why the need for all the mor'k'al crud. Same goes for Serenwilde and it's use of archaic language as well.. if our characters were meant to be titled that or use those languages, those would be the languages they speak. They don't. It's annoying but meh. thats my opinion.
I find it useful for concepts intended to be 'untranslatable', more complicated meaning that you want to separate from the regular understanding of the word(s) you'd use in 'common' to explain it. It should therefore be smatterings of special terms or mottos that have significant meaning IC, not wholesale speaking in german or whatever.
This is when Entrias logs on and activates Protocol R99-Y, animating the kiosks and pedestals around the outer ring of the city into crystal robot golems, patrolling the wards for people suspected of anti-Hallifaxian, tainted activities.

Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.

Hey, now. I am not a member of Celest.
"Chairwoman," Princess Setisoki states, holding up a hand in a gesture for her to stop and returning the cup. "That would be quite inappropriate. One of the males will serve me."

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but as a former Magnagoran, Magnagora definitely isn't a shining beacon of fair fighting.
Less about fair fighting, and more about sheningans like this that are actually becoming common:

(Magnagora): You say, "Good thing with the Countess, there's no need for tit for tat."

Esca tells you, "Yes, I am a Count, not a Countess."

You tell Heresiarch Esca n'Lochli, Nighthawk Imperial, "She's one you know."
(Magnagora): Esca says, "Oh."
(Magnagora): You say, "Unless you've been messing with dramatics?"
(Magnagora): Esca says, "Look, I said ignore me earlier."

Honestly that was an hour of punnery.
