I was this || close to just deleting the game outright when the initial startup and dialog was in german.

If i download something from an english website i expect it to be in english.

Do not ever have a game set itself to the language of the operating system on its own.

So you're mad they wanted to make it easy for people who are most likely German with a German OS to play their game in their German language?

If the game would startup on the main menu (as it should), with the language option directly available

this would be acceptable.

But for some reason the game throws you into a lengthy dialogue before you get access to the options menu.

Even without the automatic switching of language that is an altf4 moment.

and no it doesnt the first screen is Languages O.o on first time load. That is under the assumption you purchased it via itch, or steam or patreon, but if somebody bought it and ran it first on a PC that had recognized german and then uploaded it, that would be the simplest and easiest explanation... but nobody would ever do that right?

I keep forgetting just how stupid and ridiculous some people who play these porn games can be...

Oh dear. Deleting the game outright (or not) on your PC is your decision to make and only yours. However, I reckon you would have punished yourself by doing so. Also, if you run an OS in German, it is perfectly sensible to have the game run in this language as a standard. And you may switch in the options to the language you desire. It is not rocket science to go into the Options and change the language. I honestly do not understand why you would even consider making a post like the one you just did.
