    Default Regional Language testing

    Hey guys, while I realise y'all are US people, us Aussies and some of the Poms are finding the language used in one of the screens of the new raid hilarious.



    It may be that you may want to find an alternative for that word there.

    Leader of the Crimson Eagles Kyber

    Entirely reasonable use of vernacular here in the north of england where we use that word for all kinds of things that basically mean 'break' or 'broken' as opposed to its more... literal meaning. Its buggered, I've buggered it, it'll bugger you up... its all good.

    Does the NPC have a northern accent (think sean bean, or the three yorkshiremen from monty python)?

    If so, I'm good with it. If not... yeah. Its a bit like hearing americans casually say "wanker" pre-watershed.
