Changing the date / region format in Windows 10

If your game is unplayable, because enemy sprites are shown incorrectly (only feet are visible), enemies' turns are slow and sluggish, and bosses have way too much HP, then you need to change your date / region format to English.

Albeit being in German, I hope these following screenshots may help you find the correct setting if you are using Windows 10.

After restarting the game, everything should work as intended.

Hey, I've figured out the actual thing that causes problems: it's not "Regional settings", but the way US region handles date/time formatting.

In most countries/regions current date appears like this: "DD.MM.YYYY" or "MM.DD.YYYY", doesn't matter. What matters is separation symbol. In USA date is formatted like this: "MM/DD/YYYY" and this difference screwes the game over: the hame looks for "/" symbol to use as a number separator, but cannot find it, so it gets confused and stuck.

TLDR: If you can change your date/time format to USA, it would be sufficient (no need to change the whole system region: that stuff requires rebooting you PC, after all — and that's not convenient at all). And if you are — like me — running Windows 7, changing system region without changing the date/time formatting won't do you any good in solving this problem.
