**Kiwihawk** · 01-26-2014, 10:55 PM

Hello Arcane legend players, now ive started playing AL a lot more and ive noticed(Along with my friends) that there is alot of non english players. It Always Feel strange when im in the Auction because i cannot ever understand what anyones saying. Now im not saying this is a bad thing im just wondering if anyone has also noticed this?

Yeah, its true. Nothing wrong with it, just really noticeable.

If they say "sir" at any point most likely not a native English speaker.

99% of the players are filipino.

Lmao, so many "ni hao"s.
But I believe there must be one Chinese out of six players.

Well nothing new really since sts games are available in so many platforms (pc, ios, android).

It is interesting to see the evolution.
When sts 1st game came out, PL was only on Ipad1. Population was very lively and english was mainstream.
Now the players we find are quite younger and majority have poor english.
If u are a grammar extremist, AL its not a place for you lol.
I do think sometimes its a pain to trade or trying to explain how to play to a non fluent english kid.
What I do hate are player name badly written.

PL was only on the iPad1?, you don't mean "JUST the iPad 1?" because that isn't correct.

Want to see the balance of native english speakers/asians?

Go http://www.spacetimestudios.com/show...e-Toons/page78 and play spot the asian =]

Yeah theres definitely more non native english speakers now than there were before, that being said my first language is hebrew.

Well, I suppose it was also on other ios device like iphone3 or ipod in 2010. But was never into those devices.
At that time, I bought my ipad1 just because there was PL mainly.
Since then, bought 2 other pads and 3 other android tablets. And 3 android phones also.

Android devices gave really a boost to sts for players from all over the world and different social
classes. Aswell as fast $$$ since there was no
Apple in between.
