NewDark does support subtitles, so it's just a matter of creating them and putting them into a format the engine can read.

I'm not sure how big the wordcount is for Thief titles, but games can easily have from 10,000 to 100,000 words. 50k is a month of full-time work for one person, day in day out (with free weekends). And you'd still need proofreaders, localisation testers etc.

Awesome. :cool: Glad to hear that. It won't be a priority anytime soon, but subtitle support was something on my wishlist when I decided to start this fan translation a few years ago.

Obviously. :) But it's already been a long-term effort (not counting my hiatus in recent years), so it's not something impossible to ask for. I'm taking my time, working on one game at a time (while having notes prepared for the rest to come).
