Renne deserved to be the heroine of her own arc. She's too good to be a mere haremette.

actually, if they had the balls to keep Agnés gone, she could usurp that position.

Rean's story is about him growing from a beginner to one of the strongest characters in the series canonically. By the end of 4 he can pretty much beat almost anyone 1v1.
>>

OK I'm looking forward to that. CS2 is kinda demoralizing so far. Class VII just seem like massive jobbers. I don't think they've won a single fight except against faceless mooks.

I think he means in terms of story, not gameplay. In CS1-3 Rean does job to basically everyone as they go "mmmmm not bad kiddo but I was holding back, later nerd" and then they fuck off until the next time you fight them 10 hours later.

Which is retarded because Rean has multiple chosen one superpowers and is trained in the most exclusive martial arts style in the series and he still loses constantly anyway. If he's just a jobber then why the fuck do they have to give him every single snowflake power possible?

Finished it and I was very underwhelmed. It really doesn't get all that interesting until the last hour of the game.
>Van route has some good character moments but it still feels like none of these characters have really developed since the first game. Van spends 75% of the fucking game stuck in Edith AGAIN. The route also has the most filler of them all because everything in this game is just setup for the next game. Almost none of the questions I've had since Daybreak 1 have even been addressed at all. I'm so tired of the sequelbaiting in this arc. Just give these fucking characters something to do how hard is it?
>Rean route is mostly just shonenwanking and "Haha remember Cold Steel?". Almost no substance and again it's all just sequelbait for the next game.
>Kevin route has the worst writing in the entire game and assassinates Kevins character. The picnictards are all shitty characters and drag it down to. Has the most retarded ending of any of the arcs.
>They keep slapping new superfluous combat mechanics on top instead of actually fixing the fundamental issues with the progression and character building
>Music continues Falcoms general OST quality decline
>Way too many mind numbingly dull side quests. I swear they just put no effort into any of these now.
If I wasn't already attached to this series this would be a thoroughly mediocre JRPG (and it is). This series has just grown so stale and they refuse to actually tell the story anymore. I'll keep playing them because I've come this far but this series really is just nothing special anymore.
>>
>>731146342
Rean's special snowflake powers are a meme and don't give him anywhere close to the advantages people like to pretend they give him.
>sword style
It's just a sword style, no less impressive than shit Laura or Kurt practice so it's not like it gives him a special advantage
>ogre powers
active detriment 99% of the time
>Valimar
Him and every other cunt has a mech. He's not special in that regards either.
>>
>>731146854
It's a Japanese sword style therefore it's the strongest. See Cassius.
>>
>>731146851
Why Falcom is so afraid to experiment anymore? Just make new series, arpgs are popular and Astlibra was insanely popular, make something like Xanadu Next again for fuck's sake.
>>
>>731146854
His style is implied to showcase a much higher cap once you hit Divine Blade level. But being a beginner and intermediate remains within that range. The Ogre power becomes less of a detriment as he gains experience with using it, but that makes it feel more earned as it's still something he has to master to make practical. Awakeners have an edge on all other mechs usually, but he needed to grow here as well to beat Crow and the other ones. The real cool encounter we get is when he shows off mastery of all three to wake up Mcburn in his full power.
>>
>>731146342
>Rean knows 8L1B but he dropped out and mostly does self study instead of formal practice with an actual master
>Rean has his super mode but he can't control it properly for like 75% of his screen time making it worthless compared to other power ups
>Rean has a mech but he got Valimar roughly around the same time as mechs got rolled out en masse with no formal training, so he has to learn on the fly
Rean losing so often is justifiable. He was what 4th place at best at the start of CS1 after some combination of Laura/Emma/Fie.
>>
>>731146851
yeah i didnt hate the game like i hated kuro 2 but man i just found it exhausting to play because it feels like so little actually happens until the end
>This series has just grown so stale and they refuse to actually tell the story anymore
idk this has always been true to a degree and people forget nowadays how much time they wasted in cold steel and how much filler there was but the series has never been as agonizing slow and uneventful as it is right now despite kais ending having the biggest story implications yet and so many of the little things that used to make the series good are just completely gone
i think the series is just not for me anymore and honestly it hasn't really been since cold steel but after putting so much time into it i just need to see where it all goes
>>
>>731147579
Cold Steel's problem is that they had to build up to Crossbell's ending which doesnt happen until fucking Reverie.
>>
>>731129993
Rean won't start winning fights until CS4.
>>
This game is fucking awful man holy shit. I used to brainwash myself into thinking I still played this shit to see returning characters and how the overall story ends but the returning characters are all ruined and the overall story just gets more and more retarded.
>>
>>731146851
>>731147579
I think where Calvard fails is that all of the games don't feel like they build on eachother. Daybreak 2 doesn't build on any of the things from Daybreak 1 and Horizon doesn't build on any of the things from Daybreak 1 or 2. Every game feels like a restart of the arc. After the 3rd one you just feel apathetic towards it all. Falcom forgot how to tell a story.

>Dude what if we made every boss have a stupid amount of HP, have regen and can spam a move to heal itself and gain insight?

I've finished CS4 a few years back and now catching up with older games before diving in to Reverie and beyond, but god, the overall pessimism toward kai as a whole even before localization makes me worried about the future of Falcom, because CS4 was already a fucking mess by the end, and it seems like not much has changed since then, with Daybreak 1 being the only good game of the ones I've yet to play... It can't possibly be that bad, surely
>>
>>731148124
Celine...
>>
>>731147906
That shit pissed me off too. The boss has zero difficulty because it does no damage but they slap on a 40 turn condition and call it a day. Judith's S-Break removes buffs like Insight and Elaine gets a second healing skill for some reason that replenishes your Boost gauge to spam more Orders and S-breaks so using those can speed things up considerably.
Still not finished chapter 1 but I feel like they somehow made the Garten worse and the story feels incredibly choppy.
>>
>>731148296
People said CS4 was dog shit and I ended up liking it a lot and it now sits comfortably as my 3rd favourite game in the series behind CS1 and SC so I'm looking forward to playing it after I finish Daybreak 2.
>>
>>731148296
Bro, how have you not learned to make up your own mind yet? According to these threads every single game is the worst Trails game.
>>
>>731148491
I liked CS4 by the end, but its ending was a major contributor to it, because a lot of the story beats in general felt like they were for nothing after all - and the game's way too fucking long, too. Good ending, though. Would probably be fine to pretend the series ended there if it all actually goes to shit after (although I've heard that both Reverie and Daybreak 1 are still pretty good, mostly because of their overall position in the Falcom story structure they've been using since Sky)
>>
>>731146247
I think a lot of the actual discussion happened when the mtl came out nearly a year ago, it was a shockingly high quality translation so I don't think too many people waited for the official release
>>
>>731148615
I've been on 4ch for long enough to learn to not take all these opinions at face value. However, I have also become incredibly fatigued from CS4 for most of its runtime, especially after CS3 turned out to be so good - and a lot of these complains seem like it's all the same problems seven years later. I don't know, man, I want to be optimistic, but...
>>
>>731148626
CS4 was basically the highest highs int he series with the lowest lows so I perfectly understand it being a massively controversial game.
>(although I've heard that both Reverie and Daybreak 1 are still pretty good, mostly because of their overall position in the Falcom story structure they've been using since Sky)
I'd say so. They're way more consistent that's for sure. I will say if you're going to play Reverie be warned if you're a Lloydfag it may upset you cause Lloyd's parts are by far the worst.
>>
>>731145006
Van is cool but his arc is still incomplete, and so too is his own character arc with it, so it's a little hard to talk about him as in-depth as Rean since Rean's all done with his character arc. Lloyd is fine but there's not much to say about him really. He has a pretty flat character arc himself since he doesn't have many major hurdles to overcome in his own personal regard. Just means he's basically a developed character out of the gate. Van is kinda more like Rean but there's still just so much we don't know about him or his powers, and frankly it's kind of odd we still know so little three games into Calvard now.
>>
>>731145006
literally what everyone else replied to you: coldshitters are a blight on this series and brought nothing but waifufags and "ironic" weebs to the fold. it does not help that CS is riddled with the most insane accumulation of stereotypical anime tropes known to man.

some retarded coldnigger will reply to me "what about daybreak" to which i'll reply that cold steel showed falcom it was the way to go to lure retards such as them into the series.
>>
>>731148296
Understand that when you're seeing people on 4chan shitting on every single game in the series, it's literally, unironically an attempt at gatekeeping the series from unwanted tourists. If you can't get past the surface level shitposting, then maybe this isn't the place for you.
>>
>>731148736
I've yet to play crossbell, actually. I'm one of those "tourists" that got sold CS1-2 before getting into the rest of the series. I don't hate lloyd from what i've seen in cs3-4, but we shall see how good he's in his own arc. And hearing about how Daybreak 2 does pretty much nothing for most of its runtime made me upset way before Kai came out in japan.
>>731148648
Good point, actually, I haven't seen pretty much any discussion about Kai for the last year outside of "cliffhanger bad".
>>
>>731148907
I'll be happy to be proven wrong, if worst comes to worst. I'm still playing all these games anyway. Hell, maybe Kai 2 will actually get announced when I've caught up with everything.
>>
>>731132983
God I wish, but no Elaine and even Shizuna are firmly ahead in the Vanbowl.
>>
>>731145006
I love all the seething CS haters replying to this but those faggots are never discussing Van or Lloyd either so they're just massive hypocrites. Van and Lloyd don't get discussed as much cause as much as they'd like to cope and say otherwise Rean genuinely is a more interesting character and worth discussing.
>>
>>731148765
With Van they're trying to tell a story about someone being stuck in their past and learning how to move forward and live for themselves again but the problem is that that's not the kind of story arc you should tell with a character that is meant to be a protagonist for 4 games. I like Van and if he was the protag of a one off game like Kevin he would have been one of the best but Falcom didn't give him enough to carry a 4 game long arc. I hope they will at least close him off in a satisfying way in Kai 2 at least.
>>
>>731149068
He's the MOST interesting character in the whole series. People can hate on the waifu bullshit all they want, but Rean himself has a lot of depth and intrigue to him.
>>
You know playing the Sky remake with the voice acting(JP) and animations I feel like I'm finally getting why people like Estelle. This is great. I'm super glad they decided to remake Sky cause man FC fucking sucks.
>>
>>731149315
Yeah, Sky Remake is great. Turned one of the slowest games in the series into one of the most fun.
>>
>>731149291
CS would unironically be significantly better if it didn't spend so much time on the pseudo-harem bullshit.
>>
>>731149258
I do like that he's definitely been softening up a bit over the course of the games. He's a lot less rigid and gloomy now than he was in Daybreak. I hope the ending of Horizon doesn't fuck him up too bad but that might honestly be the kick in the ass his character arc needs.
>>
>>731149315
I'm glad people get into Sky more. Those are great games but god damn they play like shit. I've been struggling through 3rd for a week now and it feels like a trek through mud, even with the turbo and easy modes.
>>
>>731149481
Van has definitely grown as a person but they just tied too much of his story relevance into all the demon lord stuff so he doesn't really get anything to do until the demon lords start being relevant. It really shouldn't have taken this long.
>>
>>731149450
Outside of the optional bond events it really doesn't spend that much time on harem stuff. The girls don't really get any more focus than the guys do.
>>
>>731148648
Most people wait for the official release, I would've if they hadn't fucking delayed it. The edited MTL wasn't too bad if you can stomach occasional typos, except for the NPC dialogue they left unedited which really sucked (the one guy who edited the Rean route and could not understand how possessive 's worked really pissed me off too).
That said, "most people" are still playing the game because it's 100 hours long and it's been 4 days. You won't see discussion for another week or so.
>>
>>731149579
To be fair to Van, I don't think Daybreak 2 was ever really supposed to exist and they shat it out as a buffer for Trails fans while they worked on Ys X instead. I didn't even hate DB2 and I still think it's probably the worst thing they could have ever done for the pacing of this arc.
>>
>>731149584
Jusis and Millium are also pretty much the most relevant class 7 members besides Rean and Crow.

Enough of this and that. What's your favorite generic NPC subplot?

>>731149886
In Calvard? I constantly tune into Lodi and Selma whenever I am able to. In general? Probably all of the stuff with Meiling and Roy in Crossbell.
>>
>>731149943
Mint and Makarov aren't generic NPCs they have unique models.
>>
>>731149886
The 2 families in Trista. I always smile at the morning kisses before the field studies. The other family falling apart then reconciling after the children talk to them was also nice.
>>
>>731149886
Crossbell's church regulars were comfy
>>
>>731149258
I like Van because he's really fun to be around but it's obvious that after the first game, Falcom has kept many cards up its sleeve regarding his character and that works to his disadvantage and means that, for many people, the character has become stale.
Even so, as I say, his character is still very enjoyable. People acting like his route sucks because he sucks while the other two are amazing becuase Rean and Kevin are amazing is pure shitpost when neither route is free of problems like this >>731146851 anon pointed out
>>
>>731150128
I like his personality but I need more from a character than just cracking jokes and being a smartass. Especially after 3 games. I know they're setting up stuff for him for the next game but god we need SOMETHING in the meantime.

Or maybe your opinion is so unreasonably negative that you take any opinion that isn't expressing outright hatred as worship. You should check your own biases before throwing out accusations of them at other people.

Ouroboros is always the primary bad guys. If seemingly someone else is getting up to bad things, it's usually at the whims of Ouroboros.

I know people here like to worship this daughterwife shit but Jolda is just another tired case of Falcom repeating things that worked in the past because they have no creative spark left. She's literally just Altina 2. Who in a way was just a worse Tio. And then you had Renne before....
That literally ever protagonist in the series has some super powerful little girl fall into their care is so tiresome. Nothing new happens.
>>
>>731156783

>>731147397
Let's be real though, power level autism among the MCs is hard to make sense of because they have all pretty much beat God-like entities or humans that are extremely powerful and the equivalent of small armies. Or literal fucking demons.

The reason people think Rean is the strongest is his DB status, and I still think this is mostly from the glaze Cassius has. In Sky, Cassius was the end-all be-all of strength. And then you learn the motherfucker nerfed himself ON PURPOSE and he is still a beast.

At the time Sky happens you see all these people talking up Cassius and the 8 Leaves, and so the status of Divine Blade carries the weight it does. Despite Erebonians being obsessed with swords, the Arseid and Vander styles do not carry the prestige the 8 Leaves does in the whole of Zemuria.

But as people point out, Rean is probably the MC that has jobbed the most. And gameplay wise, I don't think anyone is nearly as broken as Grendel Van.

And then you have shit like Lloyd beating Rean in CS2, the fact Estelle and Joshua beat Loewe, an Anguis, and later the same Anguis fused with a literal wish-granting treasure of the goddess, Lloyd beats a fucking casuality-controlling pseudo treasure...

I disagree completely.
Altina's is forced as fuck. It's cute, but her character arc is Tio's, but with a romantic twist that comes out of nowhere. I have asked this before as I have not engaged with anything regarding the Northern War, but Altina at the end of 2 is just a government dog like Rean and the work some missions together, and at the start of 3 she is, unaware, she is in love with him and her character arc is learning that. Way more forced than Tio's, even if admittedly that bond event where she paints a picture of Rean is really cute.

Being in love with Rean has little to do with her character arc and you saying that just proves to me you have no idea what you're talking about. Her arc is about finding her humanity and learning to lead the normal life she missed out on. Her affection for Rean is way more of a side note to that arc than Tio's is for Lloyd. You're just cherry picking dishonestly.

Tio is the best girl in Crossbell. Altina is the best girl in Kiseki. They are not the same. There's a reason a lot of people call Altina Rean's canon wife and don't do the same for Tio. Altina by far has the best chemistry with Rean cause of how good her interactions with everyone are.

Lloyd didn't really beat Rean though. He was about to go Ogre and wreck him and Rixia's shit in. Estelle and Joshua "beat" a Loewe that went about as hard with the fight as Archer did when he fought Shirou and had two people backing them up, one of which being potentially Kevin. The Demiurge type entities are sort of hard to quantify with regard to their actual power scale and they're evidently not that high considering the same group with Lloyd loses to Rufus clone.
>>
>>731158046
Also Tio fell for Lloyd quite quickly and so there was always really a romantic aspect to her feelings for Lloyd but with Altina she grows into her own person BEFORE she falls for Rean which is the important part for me and why I think she's handled better in terms of writing.

I think Crow and Celine have the actual best dynamic and rapport with Rean out of all of the characters. I realize neither are really romantic type partners for him, but I think that's to the benefit for both characters.
>>
>>731158123
>>731158216
I don't agree at all. I think we see Tio fall in love with Lloyd and I would agree all of Lloyd's harem falls in love with him way too quickly when he spends the majority of his time just giving them corny speeches, but Altina to me seemed in love with Rean the moment 3 begins. I think I remember her saying that she wanted to be by his side because she was commanded too, but when confronted with the reality she has to decide what to do she still wanted to be by his side and gets very jealous of how close Millium and Rean appear in the prologue of CS3. To me it was obvious, and disappointing, that she was in love with Rean from there. She was simply unaware of that feeling or how to describe it. I don't think she would have tried to lay down her life for him at the end of 3 otherwise.
>>
>>731158920
That's cause she's Rean's daughter. It wasn't romantic until CS4.

>>
>>731159003
I don't agree, because that is a one-sided view of that relationship at best (how Rean would view her) and still my main gripe is we never see how she got to be that way. She simply was like that at the start of the 3. Don't get me wrong, we see her feelings shine through, we see her recognize them and the game fleshes out her love for him more, but the fact remains she was in love with him from the start of the game.

I personally think Towa's relationship with Rean is the most believable in how they go from friends in the first two games to potential lovers in the last 2/3. But among his students I think Juna's path to realizing she is in love with him is also very overlooked and one of the most interesting given her conflicting feelings for him.

>>731159115
Yeah but it's paid.

>>731159493

>>
>>731159291
I don't agree with your dissagreement. If you actually read Altina's bond events in CS3 you'll see that they're clearly supposed to be platonic and Altina is heavily attached to Rean as the one who she feels gave her life meaning. Altina in CS3 is still not a person who can develop romantic feelings for someone cause she's at that point too emotionally immature. Falling for Rean is the perfect completion of her arc as it fully confirms she's grown to become a normal person as CS4 is the first game she really starts showing off more normal human emotion.
>I personally think Towa's relationship with Rean is the most believable in how they go from friends in the first two games to potential lovers in the last 2/3.

Now this I do agree with. Altina to me has the best chemistry with Rean of any character since they're the best at mutually supporting each other instead of it being more one sided like with other characters but Towa and Juna were close for me and always ones I liked. I still have no idea how anyone could play CS3 and think Juna was supposed to be shipped with Kurt. Shit was literally never even slightly hinted at.

I do not see a platonic reading of them at all. I see a doll with burgeoning feelings that is too emotionally stunted to really be able to put into words how she feels, and through the connections she develops with others, and reinforcing the one with the man she loves, she grows more and more human and finally learns what that feeling she has for Rean is.

And this is especially true with the CS arc where the reality of a girl falling in love with Rean was obvious. You only need to hear Musse speak and you know where direction of these 3 female students is headed. Or where it is rather, for at least 2 of them.

I hope the side quests in Horizon dwindle down the further I get in it. I actually really dig the gameplay and the fun story events that happen at the end of every act, but the 4SPGs/bracer quests that you have to do during the downtime are incredibly boring.

I just finished Kevin's part 1 route and the ending was really exciting but then everything was ruined again when I went to Rean's route. I immediately realized I have to fucking equip quartz and equipment on everyone to make my own autistic/optimal setup and then do some filler quests again before I get to the cool shit that undoubtedly happens at the end of his chapter. I KNOW it's going to be cool, but I have to run around getting all the unique items and running back and forth between NPCs to finish a 4SPG request I don't give a shit about first.

I'm not trying to be like "Oh no, more game to play", but some of this shit is genuinely boring. I think the formula of doing these quests is fine, but they should probably tone it down in these crossover games with three protagonists and instead go all-in on story. I'm also just having a hard time enjoying Van's crew in general at this point.

I really think Falcom needs to give the series a rest and just focus on pumping out the remakes for now. Work on those and let the niggas who had the entire fucking Liberl, Crossbell, and Erebonia arcs generally outlined do the same shit for the rest of the series. It's plain to see that not even remotely as much time or planning as the previous games had has gone into Calvard and beyond.
>>
>>731161123
see, that's the problem
kondo wrote sky and i think his vision has been the only outline for the series as a whole they have had.
For crossbell they were particularly inspired it seems like, but for cs onwards i think they have been winging it, which has resulted in arcs being at least 4 games long now

>>731161123
They are taking a rest (with a weird reason) and making remakes now. It's almost two years since Kai and those two years we have Sky FC and SC remakes.

>>
>>731161262
I feel like even CS was still more well thought out than Calvard has been though since a lot of it was still continuing off of things established earlier in the series. Calvard is kind of trying to be the beginning of the second half of the series with relatively less riding on the really early plot points since pretty much everything barring Ouroboros got wrapped up, except Calvard feels sloppy as fuck. It feels like they don't know where they should go or like they're rushing to get games out instead of taking the time to consider what they want to do.

All right I'm fucking sick of cast bloat. Feri, Quatre, Judith, and Bergard all could be gone and nothing would change. Feri does nothing in both story AND gameplay. Quatre is a shitty, gay mix of Tita and Tio with a pointlessly convoluted existence. Judith came out of nowhere and her family's lame. Bergard has nothing to grow off of because he's an old ass man who had his character development years ago. Bergard only exists to tell the group "Ahh, youth, shit's bangin'."

Oh absolutely, I'm not even trying to say it didn't drag on, just that the general outline of events was still there. It was absolutely marred by abysmal pacing and padding in its own right, but we still had an inclination as to where things were going to go. Calvard feels way more meandering to me than any of Cold Steel though. Each game those far has not felt like it's building on anything from each previous game. Almost nothing from Daybreak had any impact on Daybreak 2, and the same for Daybreak 2 going into Horizon. At this rate, I'm damn near worried they're somehow going to have the next game have almost nothing to do with Horizon and it's just gonna feel like yet ANOTHER game in Calvard that's trying to build up more shit that continues to never get any real payoff.

Bergard probably didn't need to be a party member, I'll agree with that. He might have even been better off as an occasional guest but otherwise an NPC. I don't really agree with Feri because I'm certain there's an untold aspect of her character arc that will be important someday. Quatre is here as the resident guy who knows tech better than the rest of the party. And I just like having Judith around because she's hot and also she's a useful party member.

The gyaru gets the treatment most localizers give gyaru characters, which is making them use every piece of slang known to man. It's a polarizing matter, for sure.
>>
>>731162020
I don't really agree or think it is fair to compare a literally incomplete arc to a completed one. Besides, to me CS1 was just meandering: the game. The most important aspect of that game was familiarizing ourselves with Thors, Class VII, the DKs and the War of the Lions.
So a lot of the heavy lifting was done by the cast, and I feel CS1 did little to really invest me in all of them, Rean himself included. And then 2's twist renders the whole journey of 2 pointless and it isn't until 3 that we get an idea what the Society and Osborne wanted out this whole conflict. I personally think that is a more aimless than Kuro 2 and the slow start of Kai that is made more unpleasant by the mandatory 3 explorations of Edith before getting on with the story.

This last bit is subjective, but I have found the actual important lore shit in Calvard more interesting than the stuff in Cold Steel.

"It was never this bad" would be a better way to phrase this.
>>731164141
While that's fair, it's also important to remember that both the whole localization depravity was never as bad as it is today, and also the fact that it was, in fact, better before, even with all the cheeky chest messages and all - the games had its charm, without a random "pronouns" bullshit in the middle of a new arc.

I haven't played it yet but did the Sky remake soft retcon any Cold Steel references like the Crossbell rereleases did?

>>731163871
its cringe that doesnt belong in the series and falcom should be embarrassed
>>
>>731163871
translation should be about reporting dialogue accurately while preserving what intent is possible
localizers take the second half and go completely overboard with it
i dont give a FUCK about what your modern streamer nigger does i just want the character dialogue to not be complete fanfiction that never happened in the original game

He was too bland. Not a terrible idea given kiseki shines with side-characters, but still.

I just don't think the game is stronger for having one of the members of the not-illuminati faction being a streamer.
I get streaming is huge right now, and probably even moreso in Japan with all the vtuber shit but really what is the point of her besides acknowledging that streamers are insufferable to anyone who doesn't have orbiter bias?

anon, you do know she also uses netslang (NND one to be exact), right?
you are also playing it with the localization bud
i can live with a few jokes, you can't despite your disdain for them. If anyone is settling it you by your own admission. if you cared enough you'd quit bitching and would learn japanese

but you cucks are too fragile to have that conversation

fragile nigger cant even discuss the merits of better localizations without going "stoooop talk about something eeellseee"
>>
>>731167749
you didn't discuss anything, you're bitching about a product you seemingly are supporting because it has slang and that hurt your feelings

so tell the world about your ideal localization ideas bro, I don't think it will change anything given how game localizations have been handled for 30 fucking years

my ideal involves replacing the profession entirely
whatever they were at the start theyre nothing more than glorified wannabe "writers" now
of course the entire industry isnt made of bad apples but the good ones can just find work in proper translation or interpretation jobs (acting as if the good ones arent actually doing that already)
>what about the games
restart the industry but dont call them localizers because the word is tainted by this point
make them translators and have them change only things that ABSOLUTELY MUST be changed because the output makes zero sense
if they use nico nico slang then put the fucking nico nico slang in

>>
>>731168553
But even weebs don't fucking know that. There is no realistic way to translate any one language into another using slang.

Hence my point why you should learn Japanese, because the recent bitching from your kind will not hurt this industry. That's why it is called localization and not translation.

So your realistic options are
1) learn the language or
2) rely on MTLslop and pray with all your little heart it gets to the level of a fluent English speaker some day

>>731168923
>the slang
you can bet the genuine weeaboos do know it
one of the issues with localization is that it takes an opportunity to look at facets of other cultures and destroys it a la jelly donuts
anyway ill take the evolution of option 2
replace localizers with AI (machine) translations and just have the output be proofread for accuracy and legibility
>bitching wont do anything
only because "people" like you refuse to join in
people need to show that they have standards or else companies will just take the cheapest option
the problem with that is that humanity as a whole is made up of retards with no standards
>>
>>731169304
People have standards. That's why I put up with it. If anyone doesn't have standards it's you literally supporting something you hate. If I had no standards I'd take your word for it and be like sure, let me hate this thing I had no real problems with before.

Your problem is people don't share YOUR standards. Because convincing people that some slut in a game uses tiktok slang is just unimportant. If you hate it that much learn the language or find a solution. Expecting other people to fix something you can fix yourself is some bitch shit, anon.
>>
>>731169781
you seem to be labouring under the misunderstanding that i am bitching about this one issue specifically when i am trying to talk about the decline of localization as a whole
whether people care about the tiktok slut is irrelevant because despite your insistence about your (and everyone else's) standards the only "standard" most people have is that the language is readable and the game isnt an unplayable mess which is quite literally the lowest common denominator
the fact i even have to explain that says that you are part of that group because this isnt "fixing something you can fix yourself" its the issue that the product people are paying for is below standard and yet people will buy it anyway (pokemon being the primary example even if its not a localization issue but a product issue) just look at the xseed localizations or the fire emblem games where parts of the game or its language will genuinely be cut out and nobody raises an issue so they keep doing it
but im done you can say your piece and i truly will read it but im done responding because we are clearly on opposite sides of the fence and cannot reconcile
>>
>>731170218
Fair enough, let me just say this: the examples your camp use are always so neglible it is hard to take you seriously. I liked Xstelle and so did many other people. I don't think her character was assassinated or drastically changed because she had quips instead of "ANDESUTTE!?" several times. Playing the remake that was very obviously MTL'd made that clear to me.

I know it varies from series to series but unless it ever becomes as bad as Nintendo Treehouse localizing FE Fates, I will personally not care. And even if I did, I think I would try my luck learning the language because meager as it may be, I have an extremely rough understanding of the Japanese used in anime and games.
