I think even if it is imperfect, having the option to translate would be helpful. Many games use a static translate or have a button to translate, I think either would be helpful. +1

Jack has sent word that an ingame translator isnt very difficult and works very well when built into a browser.

Cast revotes.

Not everyone uses google chrome. I use my phone and use safari as it works best with that for me. A translator in game allows the use of any browser for this game instead of being forced to use google chrome to talk to someone who doesnt speak english.

Most browsers offer page translators by default or can be added as an extension. You can also DL the chrome browser to your iPhone.

Don't see a need for this.

Honestly I was thinking the same... There are online translators everywhere. Yes, they don't work very well but still they work.
There are two options: either PG offers a high quality translation, or leave it as it is (i.e. in English).
On the other hand, a translation is highly time consuming. Balancing pros and cons, I'd say that PG is in English and it's good like this. For not English speakers (and I am one) it can even be a challenge to practice it and learn it better.
