The lower part was written by Nico, which I really wanted to leave because he is passable.

Since there are two possibilities or ideas, that makes things complicated ^ ^

Personally I'd go with badgesareus as I feel it reads better, smoother than mine. :)

Over 100 hours gametime and much more awaits for you in Enderal
Should be "await" not "awaits" because "100 hours gametime and much more" is plural not singular.
At Fate's Edge awaits you in Enderal a completely new adventure.
English grammar "a completely new adventure awaits you" (delete "for").

I respectfully disagree, and this will probably sound a bit pedantic, but please bear with me.

When using 'more', both singular and plural are acceptable, depending on the specific sentence structure as a whole. If 'more' refers to something specific and countable (e.g. things, adventures, etc.), then of course plural is the way to go. However, when you use 'much' as a quantifier, you refer to concepts or objects that cannot be counted in numbers (e.g. much water, much of your life, not much change, etc.). In spoken English, phrases like 'this much' or 'that much' are followed by gestures that represent a certain but not specific amount of something or other.

So, in the sentence "Over 100 hours gametime and much more awaits for you in Enderal", the deciding factor is that 'much more' refers to not only game hours, but game content that only hinted at. Even if you expanded the sentence to include 'over 100 hours game time, dozens of quests, wonderfully voiced NPCs and much more' the verb form would still be 'awaits', as 'much more' sums up all the previous information and hints at things unsaid and unknown. Only if you rephrased the sentence to include 'many more / other exciting things' (not a good example, I know, because 'much more' is difficult to replace) would you use the plural form of 'await'.

Just my two cents. ;)

Now I have completely started the discussion :lol:

Since I think that's not so good (bad) and Google translator helps me,
but not the correct english represents .... I am on the help of the
Instructed community. Since the grammar is different in English,
as the in german.

I can only rely on what you write. Any help is welcome :)

The correct translation will probably take some time to get up agree :D
Well, finally, I also want to create a DVD cover for the English fans.
Because I was asked by many users from this community.It's just a
pity that those who asked me did not write here :(

hours gametime and much more
The "deciding factor" is basic English grammar. The subject of the sentence "Hours and more" is plural, just like "roses and violets" would be plural; therefore, the third person plural form of the verb is required, which is "await." You are suggesting that somehow you can completely ignore the "and" ; also that "100 hours gametime" even though it is clearly part of the subject of the sentence somehow doesn't require any verb.

In this sentence "much" is an adjective that modifies "more" which is a noun in this usage. Also it would be incorrect to follow "await" with a preposition such as "for."

I would also note that the proper form would be to write "100 hours of gametime.
