Your Marketplace is afwul

That's right. It's an abomination. Why, you might ask? Well, it might be all good for those who live in an English speaking country. Perhaps it's all good for those who live in some other country in which people speak a rather common language, like German,
French or Spanish. But then you have countries with low population and a not-so-common language and things get really messy. Here are examples I can recall right now:

Tales from the Borderlands: the description on the complete season has been translated to Finnish by using a machine to do so. I wish I was joking, but I'm not. "Set anteeksiantamaton maailma Pandora tapahtumien jälkeen nähty Borderlands 2, tämä on tarina
täynnä Borderlands "tavaramerkin huumori, seuraavat kaksi seikkailijoita heidän etsiessään suuruutta." That part right there makes 0 sense. It's simply words put together, not an actual meaningful sentence. The entire description is like that. If you
want to localize everything, then at least make sure it's done by actual people who know the language! I'm pretty sure everyone would rather have the description in English instead of trying to understand the butchered Finnish we now get.

Forza Horizon: well, well, well, what do we have here. "Les Jeux sur la version Demand prend en charge norvégien, suédois, anglais. Où les voitures appartiennent!" Oh how wonderful. So somehow the combination of fi-FI gives you a description in French. FRENCH??!
That's completely absurd! It's not a commonly known language at all here. Finnish, Swedish and English are. Even German would make more sense as more people choose that one in school. But no, you just don't care about the Marketplace people outside the big
and meaningful countries have to deal with. What's next, descriptions in Japanese?

It's things like these that have been effectively pushing me to PC and PS and I'm not surprised the PS4 is selling a lot better in Europe than One. Oh hey, btw, when can we expect to be able to choose a language freely regardless of our locale?

"Chat through headset and speakers" distortion

Hey

So when I have chat selected to output through speakers and headset, voices come through distorted. When it is just on headset, it is file. It isn't an afwul distortion, just sort of robot like. I have no idea what the reason could be.

Thanks for your help!
