Hi!
I intend on translating it to French eventually (including for the previous edition, I did the Players guide but not the Storytellers guide), but it isn't a priority because it is a lot of work that does not sell.

C'est prévu (y compris pour l'édition précédente, j'ai fait le guide du joueur en VF mais pas celui du meujeu), mais ce n'est pas prioritaire parce que c'est un boulot énorme avec très, très peu de retours et de ventes.

Je m'y remettrai sous peu, j'espère ! ^^

La bise et merci de l'intérêt !

Hello, I think that the biggest reason that you don't sell it is the price. I dont underestimate the work you put in this book because I just cant juge it without reading it, but the probleme is that it is around SIX TIMES the price of the other french city "by night". Paris ? 3€ ; Lyon ? 4,66 ; Bordeaux ? 22,85 !! More than the official chicago by night :(

Thank you for your comment!
I mean the French version doesn't sell much. It's a lot of work and time investment. I'll do it eventually but the VF just isn't worth it financially for me to make it a priority.

Lyon and Paris are both 56 pages and 28 pages respectively, while Bordeaux is 288 pages (without the character sheets for the NPCs / SPCs !). The work isn't the same in terms of depth/research and layout. Chicago was crowdfunded and pre-paid, while Bordeaux didn't get that as it's not an official product :)

288 pages ! Wow, I understands better now !
French is my native language and I live in Bordeaux so if you need help, I can work on it with you if you want :)

Je suis bordelaise aussi :D C'est surtout une question de temps / d'énergie pour traduire la totalité du schmilblick alors que les francophones achètent très, très peu de pdfs.. le jeu n'en vaut pas forcément la chandelle au niveau du travail demandé (surtout que je dois payer mes artistes aussi ^^).

Par contre je finirai par traduire le guide du MJ de la version "révisée" (le fichier est beaucoup plus facile), et je ferai un bundle avec les deux livres :D
J'essaierai de caser ça pendant les vacances de février.

I don't understad why I can not review the material.
Anyway, at what point exacly is the book going to be edited?
Example: Page 5, straight out of the book *himinthatendeavorwiththeirlargeinfluencenetworks.* This is not even the only one I've spoted.
punctuation and grammer are also poor. The content itself is... ok. Definetly regreat the purchues.

1star out of five

Hi! Thank you for your comment, sorry I fell off a cliff and couldn't reply before.
Indeed there are probably still a few layout errors in the file, I'm sorry!
Considering this is a one person project, some typos and sentence structures being dicey do happen, but I have failed to see actual grammar errors. I will do another pass as I correct the layout issues! The document is massive and I only have 24 hours in a day :')
You probably cannot review it if you are a publisher yourself. Publishers cannot review products that aren't "for publishers" (usually assets).
I strongly suggest however you check your own grammar and punctuation before commenting such negativity towards another fan who does their best, especially when you criticize those elements in a fan supplement. Glass houses, etc.
I will reply to your comment again as soon as the layout has been given another pass, so you can perhaps give it another shot. Thank you again for taking the time to comment!

Does it have any scenario?

The scenarios are mostly plot hooks related to some events and NPC backgrounds (and their need for the PCs) as starting points, but because all of it depends on how players interact with NPCs, it’s more of a “which domino do they touch and what are the possible consequences?” Kind of chronicle rather than a railroaded story. However those dominos can be transferred to other settings fairly easily!
Please check the lengthy reviews of the previous editions, they might give you a better idea of the contents from a buyer’s perspective

Thank you for your interest!

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
