That'll probably get fixed at some point post-release. How I didn't notice that I have no idea. :|

For all I know this is my brain being stupid but,

this sentence makes no sense to me.

I mean, I get that it goes on to the next text box, but it seriously made me stop a moment confused.

That happens with characters who like to say a lot in one sentence....

As for "immunne", I almost never notice when two of the same letters are next to each other, especially if it's a word that I know has something like that. So it can be the wrong one or both (like with "immunne") and it may very well slip by my attention. I had to read that description twice to find the error, as I was looking for something more glaringly obvious.

Very attentive, SwordUser...

Yeah, this is Chante being Chante. :V

Maybe if enough typos are found to exist in the game this should be stuck to the top of the list of threads and used as the general reporting-a-typo thread. Here's another one: http://i.imgur.com/tyFr9.png

While I can find "doy" in some online dictionaries (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/doy, http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/doy), I can't find it in every dictionary (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/doy), which suggests to me that it is either a typo, or just an extremely rare word.

"Done" seems to fit this sentence well. O.o

Doy is not a typo, it's part of Chante's vocabulary. You've never heard a kid say "doy"?

It's fairy for "derp". I'm a languageologist, I know these things.

Never in my life.  "Duh" would be familiar, but never ever heard "doy"
It's nice to be important but it's more important to be nice.

I've heard it (and possibly used it), but it's not super common.

It exists, but that's about as much as I can say...

Back in the 90s and early 00s, I heard it a lot. Not so much in recent years. Seems like it got replaced with 'no der'. Just out of etymological curiosity, can  I ask when and where the people who don't recognize it grew up?

I'd say "herp derp" might be the modern translation ;D
(though I'm not sure of the context)

Nah, don't use "herp derp", that's an internet term and should be avoided.

Duh would sound more natural nowadays, since we never hear "doy" much, if at all, anymore, but "doy" isn't a typo.

No need to change it, especially if there are other actual typos and such out there.
