    Dragon Age Origins wrong language


    I downloaded DA:O as a Free with Gold offer.

    To my frustration this game is in French: Menus, Audio, Subtitles.

    What's the point in console settings "language: English" and "locale: United Kingdom" when someone, is it MS or EA, ignores this completely.

    I'm located in the Dutch speaking region of Belgium and although 60% of all people in Belgium speak Dutch, I keep getting this problem. Same thing for these ads you see in that little box sometimes on the Home-tab of the console-GUI.

    What's even more confusing, when in the game, you go to the DL-content, menus are in French, most explanations are in English and some in Dutch. How's that for a middle finger in your face.

    When is MS going to solve this serious problem?

    I suspect MS is going to tell me to contact EA, because they presented the game in the wrong language. And I suspect that EA is going to send me back to MS, because they only let me DL the game in the locale of my country(wrong part of it). That's what happened
    with Fallout 3.

    I don't expect a solution, but please, solve this issue for future games.

    PS: this is already the 3rd game with this problem.

    :)

  2. Slowly getting back into gaming.

    Thank you guys, for £3 I guess I can't go wrong. I'll take your advice and pick up Origins and Awakening, I'm guessing the order goes Dragon Age, Origins, Awakening, Dragon Age 2?

    Dragon Age Origins in wrong language

    Hi Jesse,

    After following your steps, it was still in French, but then I uninstalled and reinstalled the game and now it's in English! So thank you!

    Dragon Age Origins in wrong language

    Hello, My name is Jesse. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    On your console, Go to Settings > system > language and location.

    Change the language to English, the region to USA or UK and leave the location at where you live. Relaunch the game and it should be in English.

    Hope this helps.

    Hello, Marco! I'm afraid that available languages of a download depends on the physical location. (And generally the language will be somewhere in the details description of the game.) Some games may support multiple languages, and that's generally in
    their individual options menu.

    Also, if you have a friend nearby with the game from a region that has the language you like, you could try using a USB to copy their version, it should still behave on your console if you already made the purchase.

    Dragon Age: Origins - language

    I got the same problem here in Belgium.

    When i'm checking out games on m xbox360 wether i want to buy them or not, i get my info about the games in dutch, sometimes in french and sometimes in english. I've downloaded many arcadegames before, but dragon age is my first xbox360 game i buy online.

    My language is dutch (flemish), i live in the dutch speaking part of belgium and the gamedetails were written in english on my xbox360 menu (and "genre" was filled in in dutch). I bought the game and now i'm stuck with a frech written AND spoken Dragon age!!


    Where should i've had noticed that i was going to buy a french game and WHY can't i just ge a normal english game (or at least a dutch version)?! ...AND, is there a way to download it again, but then in english?! I have no friend with the game in english
    that i can get the game from btw.

    ...damn -_-
