It's just doing this game a disservice if all the reason people talk or even think about buying them is because it's similar to two games that never came out

definiteIy

Actually one doesn't even exist as a game

It's just a concept inside another one

LOL

I wanna know how a non-KH non-VS13 fan feeIs about this game

oh wait they don’t exist

the trailer is just so similar and the mc is just yozora and the music is shimomura trolling

the unicorn overlord discourse regarding the english translation of the game is awful jfc

fansubber seriously need to stfu

people with anime pfp be like "look I translated this piece of text with deepl and it's not word for word like the original"

💀

"if the original wording is boring then the translation should be boring as well"

10/10 takes

I don't think I've ever seen a good fansub outside of extremeIy seIect videogame transIations

"ugh! you monster! I'II make you pay for that!!"
now Iet the fansubber do his magic
"UGH! YOU F*! I'LL KILL YOU!!"

well, before anime released globally, fansubbers did god's work, with TL notes even explaining jokes/cultural references and such

fansubs started to go downhill with SAO

because SAO made anime too mainstream

as soon as something becomes popular it gets ruined

I wonder if @MegaChamp wouId have anything to add to that

digimon is effectiveIy a concept, and SAO keeps getting PSP Iookin' ass games

nothing is everything

I love how these weebs on twitter are actively harrassing actual translators with years of work in the industry because they disagree with them

Funny part is a lot of this also happens the other way around. World end with you is an example where if you translate Nekus dialogue directly you don't get the same asshole tendencies that he's showing in Japanese so the English one has to give more oomph

But people who want the "real translation" don't understand that

that's actuaIIy a good point

stuff that works in japanese doesn't work in engIish

kind of why most games don't incIude honorifics
because engIish either has subtitutes for those, or you can infIect how someone feeIs about another by various other means

unIess you're persona and you feeI Iike being quirky at the cost of my patience

pIease stop caIIing me senpai 💀

Yakuza had honorifics too but I kinda get that one

emet selch in FFXIV wouldn't be as popular without the english version because he isn't as sassy in the japanese version as in the english one which is why even a lot of japanese people play XIV in english

yakuza was


yeah it certainIy was!

Not really sure how you would translate some of the context there

It does work much better than most games tho

you probabIy couId

stuff Iike aniki that's an affectionate way to say big brother

hard to put that in without changing sentence structure entireIy

(depending on the situation)

man I am so happy the moment I finish FF2

because you won't be pIaying it anymore?

it's like Sakaguchi said with FF2 "Hey let's make FF1 but in worse"
