On the problems, do you happen to know where it might be possible for me to find a patch or something that would make it possible for me to read it in English? I can play the game and all but I don't know what they're saying.
Unfortunately, there isn't an English translation of Fate/stay night, as of yet. There IS a project going on to translate it, but that is pretty far off (
but make sure to keep your eye on it).
Best you can do right now is use
Anime Games Text Hooker in conjunction with
Atlas to get a quick-n-dirty translate of some of it. Although it's unlikely to give you a great deal of detail. (
Some instructions on how to use AGTH and Altas...)
Besides that, not much you can do besides browse the
Beast's Lair (more specifically the
Walkthroughs & Translations part of it) to gather as much of the translated sections as possible (not going to be much).
EDIT: Oh, and while this may or may not help you, there IS a
walkthrough for the Fate/stay night game.
The site is in Japanese, but since the game is in Japanese as well, all you need to do is click on the options that look similar to the ones given. You might want to run some of the things through
Babelfish or some other bastard translation program to get a (very, very) basic understanding of what's being said on the walkthrough though.
Take note, you won't be able to follow the Unlimited Blade Works or Heavens' Feel pathes until you've completed Fate.
