Epic Subtitle Fail - Thinker - 09-21-2012

Why does it seem like no one realizes that there is a common grammatical error in Amnesia?
Surely a game developer would have picked it up, before releasing a retail game, right?

Let me explain-

After activating and falling down the elevator, there is a flashback moment where Alexander explains to Daniel that the next area is the dungeon.
The subtitles read as follows:

"Perhaps I forgot to mention. One of my duties as a Baron is that of a warden. This is were prisoners are locked up."

Did you see it? DID YOU SEE IT?

Let me make it clearer:

"This is WERE prisoners are locked up." Exclamation

Really Frictional? How could you miss this. Fire the dude who wrote the subtitles. Who knows.
When "A Machine For Pigs" comes out, a hint could say:

"Be careful! There is a Pug coming to thrill you!" Huh

Check it yourself, but it's there.
Please Frictional, fire the subtitle guy. Fix this...It bothers me.
BTW

The Hint should say:
A Pig is coming to kill you

Everybody makes mistakes. Just accept it. Fire somebody for such a tiny mistake!? Deal with it.

The language file, you mean. SNT is for sounds.
