    For latin, i’m just reading LLPSI and texts.

    For ukrainian, i’m playing metro with ukrainian subtitles/audio, so far not too much understood xd (though i can read ever so slightly faster now)

        Can’t remember the exact reason, but i really liked the punic wars and i wanted to learn a single romance language. I decided to choose latin because of all the things written in it and understand the ties between all the romance languages.

        Also, i think it sounds like a beautiful language, and the grammar; while kind of hard, is also quite pretty.

      Cool it looks very interesting, Metro also has French audio, added to my list of games to play.

      Metro the dystopian game? Nice! I haven’t given it a try yet - also wanted to try Stalker 2!

        Yes - the game and the book are set in russia/in russian however, the studio is ukrainian and the translation is very solid. I want to get my hands on stalker, too but i like to wait for sales.

        Can’t wait to try out the entire stalker franchise :D

            We are everywhere!

            Metro is kind of complicated, the original writer, dmitry glukhovsky is russian, and wrote the book in russian set in moscow.

            But, 4A games, which is the studio that developed the games, is set in kyiv (and malta, strangely).

            PS: 4A games was founded by developers who worked at GSC, who also made stalker. These games are very related!
