I played the malaysian version before coming to this version and want to know something.
Why did they change all the names in this version. Some of the names were fine the way they were.

Barbarian = werebeast
venomancer = werefox < werefox and werebeast sound better and makes more sense

also changing little things like "intact purse" to "complets sack" is dumb. IT DONT EVEN LOOK LIKE A SACK, IT LOOKS LIKE A PURSE!

Changing every word in the game is ****. Put down your thesaurus and use your brain!

    The game wasn't re-translated from PW-MY English version. It was translated directly from chinese. It isn't supposed to be the same. By the way, the translations in this version are great. Some of the ones in PW-MY didn't even make sense.

    Don't worry, you'll get used to them, they're much better b:victory

    Malaysian version made much more sense if you ask me.

    well except for the story line, malaysian version totally blew it. But you have to admit some things sound much better in the malaysian version- like werefox and werebeast as an example.

    Don't worry. You'll get used to the changes with time.

    Oh, and I don't care wether it's a purse or a sack or a pouch or whatever. As long as I can sell it for good money.

    If you think the MY version is so much better then go play that instead of whining here...
