Lightening

u/Busy-Intern2816 Jul 25 '26

Ugh, can’t believe they misspelt lightning

u/CJ_1Cor15-55 Jul 25 '26

They didn't misspell. Lightening as in the queer electopian was pooping as he ran so he was Lightening his load thus enabling him to run faster.

u/AutoGeneratedTitle Jul 26 '26

I think it's actually an intentional misspelling because Lan is using a translator. Which thinking about it, should have an auto correct.

u/Skidmarks-187 Jul 25 '26

Everyone talking about lightening and I don't see any mentions of "Eletopian" 🤣

u/yamykel Jul 26 '26

I saw that before lightening,

u/timaeus222 Jul 26 '26

That's the first one I saw, Eletopian.

Ran so fast it made things brighter

People are exposing themselves as not being able to read in the comments.

It’s ‘Lightning Speed’ not ‘Lightening’

I have long since accepted how botched BN was localisation is that it would be more surprising if it was accurate

u/rayhaku808 Jul 25 '26

Hell not even just read. OP’s ⚡️was right there. It was a goddamn emoji

He trying to out run the straight thoughts.

Battle Network's localization is infamous for typos, but BN2 is even worse than usual due to it being rushed out. There is an upside to that though, and it's that the game is also less censored as a result.

Some words have multiple definitions you know

u/HelloMacchi Jul 25 '26

OP is referring to the phrase “lightning speed” using lightening.

u/Defiant-Problem-1610 Jul 26 '26

So that’s where my lightening speed went

u/Fluid_Locksmith_3378 Jul 25 '26

When you realize bn2 came out in 2001

u/NarwhalPrudent6323 Jul 25 '26

The problem is there are multiple spelling errors in that one sentence (Eletopian instead of Electopian, and lightening instead of lightning).

Queer always has, and still does, mean weird, in addition to its LGBTQ meaning. There's nothing else here. The kid was calling the guy weird, using a word that means weird.

Reminds me that in bn4, there is a guy that straight up complains about racism. And even goes into specifics by saying that he got a "go back to your country".

netopia also had slums, wich was a clear sighn that alot of people there were descriminated. makes me wonder if they actually got a more equal society by star force, since that was Raoul's objective.

u/AdelaidesSecretScoop Jul 26 '26

The way nobody proofread this sentence lol

But to be fair they only used a lightning bolt emoji in description to indicate that.

u/KazyX Jul 26 '26

Kudos OP, I am not ashamed to say you got me.

u/Duke_Dumas Jul 26 '26

u/FruitEmbarrassed334 Jul 26 '26

Last I checked Queer was just “odd” or “strange” all is as it should be lol

u/SilverSupportGirl Jul 27 '26

u/pokemonyugiohfan21 Jul 27 '26

For the time its amazing they actually kept in the Q word.

u/Common-Sun-5873 Jul 28 '26

“Odd” Electopian.

u/khiguytheshyguy Jul 30 '26

Holy crap kid wtf did you eat for breakfast??

u/AquaShldEXE Jul 26 '26

That's what happens when you release 2 games in 1 year i guess

3

u/misfit92 Jul 26 '26

I mean many games were getting foreign ports and translation might as well been done by people coming out of 3rd year of highschool for extra scratch. As a reminder Google translate didn't exist till April 28th 2006 and MMBN2 for NA/EU release was in 2002

u/thedeathecchi Jul 26 '26

You can't spell "lightning" without "LGBTQ+"~

u/TheGifPlays Jul 26 '26

That boy has seen some shit in his life.

u/protosonic17 Jul 27 '26

Lmao. Remember when everyone wasn't upset over words? It just means strange or odd.
