Hola amigos,

Hay muchos videojuegos divertidos. Muchos menos con audio o subtítulos españoles. Pero hay algunos.

Skyrim y Fallout 4 continenen muchísimos textos y audios. También Batman: Arkham Knight, Dying Light, Civilisation VI y Dragon Age: Inquisition. Quizás Spiderman. Last of Us, Unchartered, tienen audios y textos pero no tanto cómo estos otros. Pienso FIFA también. (Ten cuidado con Batman y Spiderman porque es fácil que utilizo dinero real en los menus cuando el idioma está menos familiares. No caes en esa trampa.)

Divinity: Original Sin y Red Dead Redemption (y otros juegos rockstargames) tienen textos españoles al menos. Pensé que Divinity tiene audios pero parece que no.

Esto es un listo mas largo de R****t:

  • Bethesda stuff (Elder Scrolls, Fallout)
  • Blizzard stuff (Diablo, WoW)
  • Cyberpunk
  • Monster Hunter World
  • Witcher 1 [Witcher 3 has Spanish menus, subtitles, etc, but not audio]
  • Lost Ark
  • Battle Chasers: Nightwar
  • Bloodborne/Demon’s Souls (maybe not enough voice acting)
  • Fable series
  • Neverwinter Nights 2
  • Lord of the Rings: War in the North
  • Sudeki…
  • Playstation Studios stuff (God of War, Horizon, Ghost of Tsushima, Last of Us, Uncharted, Spiderman, etc.)
  • Assassin’s Creed series
  • Destiny games
  • Borderlands series
  • Darksiders series (Genesis is an ARPG)
  • XCOM series (also Gears Tactics)
  • Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor/War
  • Bioshock series
  • Guardians of the Galaxy
  • Sekiro
  • Death Stranding
  • The newer Deus Ex games
  • Ghostwire Tokyo
  • Jedi Fallen Order
  • Beyond Good and Evil
  • Breath of the Wild (minimal voice acting)
  • Child of Light (minimal voice acting?)

I’m unsure if all these have audio but they should have the text language in Spanish. Sometimes, on a console, you’ll have to download a language pack. With some games the language can be changed at any time: it’s either set by your console language or in the game settings. With e.g. [Assassin’s Creed], I believe you get one chance to set the language at the start of the save file.

@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml I found four text based games:

  • Ord – this is very fun, very straightforward. Play it with a DeepL or Google translate window/app open on another device to look up words quickly.
  • Darkside Detective (there’s a sequel, too)
  • A Place for the Unwilling (this is English-only audio but it looks mainly text-based so it might be possible to just mute the audio and play it as if it’s solely text-based)
  • Grim Fandango

There is also this list, but I am unsure how safe it is to buy from itch.io or to play the free games in your browser: https://itch.io/games/lang-es/tag-text-based (will you let me know if you have any luck/fun with any of these?)

Edit: forgot to add an example.

    I’ve never seen a ROM being capable of harm by itself. What is more likely is for there to be an specific exploit in the implementation of an emulator abused by a hacked ROM. But since ROMs have constant hash, you can just verify the integrity in a hash database. It’s more of a danger if you’re specifically going for patched ROMs such as translations or mods, though the patches for those are usually open source and you can patch them yourself.

    What is more common is for the download website such as Mediafire to have a fake “download button” ad that downloads some compromised executable with the same name as your download. That’s why it’s important to always have an adblocker like uBlock Origin. You’ll notice it’ll be called something like “Pokemon.nds.exe”.

    It also gets a bit more dangerous in theory with newer consoles like the Switch since the games and emulators are still being developed. The older the emulator the least likely there will be unknown exploits and if the file is too large that it needs to be zipped, then you also have to consider a (extremely advanced and unlikely) archive extraction exploit.

    And though it’s rare, Nintendo did allegedly go after some rando for torrenting the newest Zelda before the release, so using a VPN when pirating through torrent is always a cool precaution. If the file is small you’ll likely find direct download better.

    EmuParadise is a very old and trusted ROM repository, and I recommend VBA-M for Game Boy games and Dolphin for GameCube/Wii. Cemu for the Wii U has also recently gone FOSS, so you can also use that one without much worry to play BotW (it is identical to the Switch version). For the older ones you can even run it in a virtualbox for extra safety if you don’t trust it since they’re so lightweight.

      Thanks for the detailed response! It would be pleasantly nostalgic to play through some old Pokemon roms.
