exactly, man. languages may separate people, but we all know awesome when we see it. (...I think I just channeled Jack Black.) hopefully some friendly neighborhood bilinguals will translate the Act 1 demo into Japanese soon, so more people can play KS.

though I do kinda wonder how you say "MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" in Japanese.

Mwahahahahahaha = kekekekekeke, I think
I always thought that "kekekeke" was sonme kind of annoying chuckle, not the belly-laugh I imagine "MWAHAHAHA" being.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't lolololololol in jap just simply WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW?

I welcome someone else to explain how kekeke got started.

"wwwwwwwwwwwww" is basically lolololololololol, yeah. But It's lolololololololol, not actual laughing. lol is just a shortened form of laughter to convey online really. The "w" comes from "warau" which is to laugh. So they just spam wwwwwwww. I would think it'd be odd to see Misha break out into "wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww" for her laughter.

Vaen's correct. It is indeed from korean starcraft players. I think its a mimicking of the zerglings or something....dunno I'll report back when i asked one of my more informed friends who keeps constant watch over the korean ladders.

Although, I'm glad I'm not one of the devs, with the amount of internet information and speculation thats floating about KS it'd be hard not to feel pressured to produce something of utterly ridiculous quality. Dev's it's dangerous from here on out, you give you my coffee mug!(well actually it was already dangerous to begin with but never mind that ne?)

not only that, it also kind of resembles ハハハハハハハハハハハ ( "ha" in katakana)

that's the thing, man - when you make something that's going out on the internets, you got to either learn to ignore what everyone is saying or go nucking futs. I've got a friend who writes a lot of fanfic, and he gets tons of reviews telling him what he should do next in the story. people are even so stupid to threaten him to make the story go the way they want. and you know what? he ignores 'em, tells the story the way he wants to. I'd bet it's like that with the devs at least a little.
