VexTheHex Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Klei, I'm not sure if these were fixed in the most recent update, but my friends and I found some typos in the newer (?) text. Wolfgang's and Woodie's Depth Worm quotes both feature a typo. Wolfgang's is "might" instead of "mighty" feet. And Woodie spelled Lucy wrong, she will never forgive. Wigfrid's quote also seems to have some issues in regards to the rose. I'm not sure if it's really meant to be worded as such, but it seems she should indicate with a "that" or "who" after "I." Wolfgang also seemed to be lacking a quote for when Hutch was currently dead on the fish bowl, he'd use the same quote but Wilson and Woodie both had new quotes.

DragonMage156 Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I think Woodie's one is intentional. 'Luce' looks like a shortened nickname for Lucy. It's highly possible. As for the others, they could definitely be typos (never thought I'd see the day with DS having typos in it XD). Wigfrid's one just sounds confusing :/ Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/67217-double-typo-triple-typo/#findComment-770705 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysh Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I feel like Wigfrid is trying to quote Romeo and Juliet but she's completely messing it up (a rose by any other name would smell as sweet). So maybe it's intentional if she's a performer but also still a little girl who can't remember lines? Still sounds weird.

Asparagus Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I see nothing wring with Wigfrid's line... it's more as @Lysh stated, from Romeo and Juliet... try comparing that to Macbeth and other Shakespearean literature... it shouldn't sound as odd by then... Then again, I could be completely wrong and off-base O__O Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/67217-double-typo-triple-typo/#findComment-770780 Share on other sites More sharing options...
redeye85 Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Yea, pretty sure that only the Wolfgang one is a typo. Wigfrid is clearly a play on Shakespearean style, Luce is a nickname that Woodie has for Lucy (and is a moderately common nickname for people with the name of Lucy in general).

thisbird Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I'm pretty sure that Luce is a nickname for Lucy, and Wolfgang's is a typo. Wigfrid looks like she trying to use Shakespearean English but is doing it improperly. The correct phrase would be, "Would that I smelled half as sweet." In archaic language, "would that I" meant "I wish that I," as in the sonnet In Praise of Beauty: "Would that I could give all and more, my life/ My world, my thoughts, my arms, my breath, my future..." The real question is whether it's an error with tricky, old-fashioned grammar on Klei's part, or whether it's an intentional slip-up for Wigfrid, who is after all a 1920s-era lady playing a part.

Well, I mean, there isn't anyone to critique her acting in the DS world, so I doubt anyone would fault her for saying something wrong --- or at least, weird sounding.
