Games Where On The Second Playthrough The Unknowable Language From The First Is Learned
Nothing here!
4 Games
Over the course of the game, the player collects letters and learns the language of the Al Bhed. On new game+, the player has all of the letters already and can view previously inscrutable dialogue.
In PAL versions, the language is in English.
Ancient Hylian text is translated on a second playthrough.
On every playthrough after the first one, the Shades' language is readable.

I don’t really have a suggestion. I’m just impressed at how hyper specific yet really cool this idea/mechanic is. Like I wish more games would implement something like this.

@CDX Kinda, I guess. On a second playthrough, you retain the knowledge of all the words from the old language you've learned, but artefacts get new words and longer, more complex sentences.
...would The Quiet Man count? lol...
Doesn’t SotC also count?
in Heavens Vault, I believe everything you learned from the first playthrough carries into the. ext, but they don't just give you everything.

Kindly requesting some explainers in the notes! I remember NieR but I'm totally blanking on the others.
@zeroesandones Done.

Pretty sure Tunic uses this as a main mechanic to teach the player.
It might not be second playthrough though.

@Vengeance While translating the language is a big part of the game I don't think the game does it for you. Also nothing on repeated playthrough helps facilitate the translationn

Didn't play it yet, so I summon @lpslucasps to confirm or deny it.
