Multiple spelling errors and a shadow bug

#1 Post by 17F » 27 Oct 2017 23:01

First of all, this. Bad grammar, bad letter spacing, bad font (though that is subjective). Delicatessen in English means a store that sells delicacies. All the other words refer not to the store, but to the products available, so, the sign should probably say "delicacies". Veggies should be spelled with 2 g's.

Then I decided to drive around Ely looking for more errors. Here's some.
"1,000s" looks iffy, would be better as "thousands".

Missing apostrophe in "Today's special".

"Nevada", not "Navada".

Just one tattoo, then get out :D "Tattoo parlor", I think, they're called.

Last one I found is this. It is not in Ely, but rather, on most roads as a billboard. Probably should say "legendary smoothness".

Finally, the shadow bug. It's also in Ely, near the road leading southeast.

And that is from just about half an hour of looking around. I think the devs should spellcheck the signs, storefronts, billboards etc.

The term 'Delicatessen' is a bit subjective. In many places, while it is the name of the store, it also refers to the products sold in the store - deli meats, sandwiches, salads etc.

Yes Veggies should have 2 'g's in game, but that's also a bit subjective. The US appears to be the only (or one of the only) countries that spells it with 2 'g's. Much of the rest of the world uses only one, and it seems some in the US also use 1.
Never argue with idiots. They bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Also, Hotel "Navada" is spelled as such to prevent copyright infringement from the real life "Hotel Nevada".

Huh. I just thought it was a made up generic name. Like "Chinese takeout - Asian food" you can see on every corner :)
