Do you can differentiate mushrooms in the rreal world that look quite the same after someone once told you which is which ? I can't...
Yes, because it doesn't matter what language you are in when you grab a mushroom it will tell you the name of the mushroom
You don't need a PHD to read, do you?
And if you've played the game at least a bit the names of characters, mushrooms, weapons, and other artifacts, you would know their names, right?
