The novel is incredibly well-made — I highly recommend it. That said, one thing really blew my mind today. ChatGPT insists the game’s author goes by the nickname “Dimitri57,” which strongly suggests roots in Russia, Ukraine, or Belarus. But how could a native Russian speaker make such obvious grammatical mistakes and use phrasing that no native would ever say (in the dialogue between the Russian sisters at the café)? I was actually planning to message the developer last week to suggest cleaning up the Russian so it doesn’t come off as embarrassing. But now I’m not so sure… maybe it’s some kind of subtle post-irony I completely missed.

I would assume he may have Russia (Or Ukraine or Belarus) roots and might not speak more than a few words of Russian himself. Or his parents just named him Dimitri. Other named their kids eg. X Æ A-Xii for whatever the fucking reason they might have.:HideThePain:

I think you're right about that. But then again the old man could clear that up himself, if he wasn't that stubborn.:p

Dimitri57 was born and raised in the good ol' US of A. When was the last time you knew of someone who used their real name as an internet handle. Even if someone told me it was the case, I wouldn't believe it. Yes, Dima's wife has a Russian heritage. Yes, she speaks the language, and yes, Dima takes a swing at it from time to time for the sake of making the Russian girls sound a little more realistic. He does the same with Japanese and Rin, and Juanita and her daughter and Spanish. I'm excited about the Polish girl to be introduced in chapter 2.

He'll stick his head back up here one of these days. Maybe.
