Use the system options to set the environment variable LANG to something appropriate for what you want and see if that works.

Like this?


It doesn't work.

Replace LC_ALL with LANG.

still no luck.

I know this will sound a little bit hacky but: If the language is set by an environment variable we can check that by the program environment. So, run the game, search the PID and cat /proc/${PID}/environ.

How to do that, exactly? step by step, please

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoHow to do that, exactly? step by step, please

• Search for your game bin name (browse local files from Steam)


• Start your game with any language different to spanish


• Minimimize and open a terminal


• run: ps -A | grep YOUR_GAME_BIN_NAME


• Copy the number you see in the first column


• run: cat /proc/${NUMBER}/environ


• Copy that output to a file

Then follow this steps with your game running with spanish and then compare the both files you got. If the game language is set by an environment variable, you should be able to see it.

Anyway, I just tested this procedure with one of my games and I couldn't find any env variable that sets the name. So, reading a little bit on the Steam docs I can see that Steam api has an specific function that selects the game language. If every Steam game works this way, then your best chance to setup the correct game name will be by using goldberg emulator and setup language.txt with the correct output.

BTW, the latest binary release of goldberg emulator it's quite old, you may have to compile the emulator for you distro.

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoI tried this game on a Windows 10 PC (copy and pasting the Enslaved folder and running enslaved.exe) and the problem persist, so the game in not 100% DRMFREE, because it seems the language is tied to the steam client.

I finally end up buying this game for the sake of trying to figure out what is going on with the install.

So, during this weekend I was able to validate you assumption: the language selection is definitely tied to the steam api dll. This means that using goldberg emulator should do the trick... but it doesn't on linux as it makes the game crash for some reason (there is some weird debugging function call that I'm not sure why is there).

I then decided to check a little bit the game files structure and found some config files with language selection (and even with the language menu selection) but I couldn't figure out how make this work (the Steam exe is probably tied to the Steam api). Which forced me to start playing around with the files that looked like the language and, fortunately, that gave the expected results, which allowed me to create this shitty script:

In order to use it:

• Open the installation directory of Enslaved in a terminal


• Run the script as: ./EnslavedLangSw.sh ESN


• Run the game and enjoy the full spanish experience

Note 1: The script can switch to the other fully supported languages (i.e. DEU, ITA & FRA)

Note 2: By only modifying the localization directory (see $LOCALIZATION_DIR) you can keep English voices with your local preferred language as subtitles (you must enable subtitles in the game menu)

Note 3: Once you run the script to switch language, you can rollback the changes by running ./EnslavedLangSw.sh --restore

Note 4: If you switch languages twice without restoring to English between switches, restore will no work anymore
