Apologies! But then it is extremely clear though. No Polish translation. From the moment the game is officially released it is what it is and what you see is what you get, i.e. no Polish. We are welcome to keep asking them by all means. We can also punish them in reviews, refunds or even avoid the purchase altogether. But the thing is very clear.
Anything else that comes after release is a free bonus, or a PDLC as the case may be. If Polish translation is to come FDEV will let us know. Until then it is extremely safe to get some well deserved closure and asume no Polish.
Also, just so to get back to the comparison with SC thing, FDEV is not selling Elite in Polish, at least not anymore since December 2014 (the incorrect information from the August Newsletter lasted 4 months). Unlike CIG who has been making us pay for over 11+ years (and still is) for a game which is supposed to have translations in French, German and Spanish among other languages and it is not only making us now do those translations for them instead, but also we have to pay for the privilege to do so. And some people are super happy with it. I mean, I have to admit CIG´s masterminds are geniuses.
