When I have an artifact upon my Altar I offer it food, drink and clothing. When I do this it's giving me some sort of text across the top of my screen. I'm not certain if this is in German or not, but can anyone tell me what it is saying? Also, are there any plans to show this verbiage in English in the future? Thanks again!

Quick Question concerning Altar offerings

Hallo Glitch,
we need a Screenshot, otherwise we can't tell you what language it is.
Set your language in the main menu and in the game itself to English.

Okay, here's a screenshot. I just wanted to know what it says.

Hallo Glitch,
thats not german
I have no idea, what is that for a language.
Have you tried with the language settings in the main menü and in the game menü?

Oh yeah, my settings are fine, all in English. This is the only thing I get that I can't understand what it is, and I only get it when I sacrifice and item to whatever God is on the altar. I Googled it and it came up as Icelandic, and saying something with 'aye to the value of the gift' and then the last part was the same as the image shows, which I'm sure could not be translated.

Hallo Glitch,
then that will probably be"the language of the gods". I think it will stay that way.

Hello Glitch and Alienpunk.
I have been wondering the same and the closest I can get the Icelandic text is:(Google translate)
Ey sér til gildis gjöf.
(Deutsch = Augen für ein Geschenk des Geschenks.)
(English = Eyes for a gift of gift.)
Viðurgefendr ok endrgefendr.
(Deutsch = Angemeldet und bestätigt.)
(English = Enlisted and endorsed.)
As a Dane I find that it is the german translate that gives the most meaning.
And of course it is Icelandic, since it is what comes closest to what they spoke in the Viking Age.
-
So I guess it is safe to assume that they approve of my gift?
Thanks to both of you!
-
Yes, I'm sure the Gods are pleased.

Hello.
After more investigations, I believe the Alter messages are written in the old norse language: "Havamal" and not Icelandic - even that Icelandic is still the closest you, today, can come with how they spoke in the Viking Age.
Havamal is the same language as the "Edda Verse" Valnir Rok has on the website.
It would probably also be how the Gods would speak. -
Interesting!
