      The bug

      Some menu screens contain ellipses at the end of their titles, which shouldn't be the case, as ellipses are meant to indicate that there's still something else after taking a certain action (in the cases of buttons, these serve as an indicator that clicking the button will take the player to another screen). But in the titles of said screens, however, it doesn't make sense to include ellipses, simply because there's not a continuation: everything there is to see is already there.

      Currently, affected screens are: "Chat Settings", "Accessibility" and "Language". The reason for this is that the game uses the same string for both the button and the screen title, whereas, for every other screen, there are actually two separate strings, one for the button, and one for the screen title.

      Note: Almost six years ago, a similar ticket (MC-25201) was marked as invalid. But with the increase in tickets treating about language issues, as well as how the procedures taken for those reports have changed since then, I thought I'd report it again.
