>Japanese humour is shi-
>>736872905Oh that's the same error on those hololive trading cards. They missed the potential form.
-t
>>736873120>errorIt sounds 10 times better retard
>>736872905How does that change the joke?
>>736873264Well actually in the second line, with the hand being an assassin, she's kind of talking like the hand itself has the job of assassin. They could've said that the hand was just coming to kill Leon, but they specifically phrased it as the hand being given the role of assassin. So the hand is a hired hit, and it can do that. The English reads more like she can remove her hand. Also the nine lives is strange as a translation.
>>736874002>her
Does Japan have the term "right hand man"?
>>736874150>右腕>ある人にとって最も信頼できる部下。
>>736874150Right arm in this case, which is close enough to "right hand man."
>>736873264I'm afraid you need to be at least two or three levels more autistic in order to understand.
You are right hand comes off?
>>736872905I think it's the same joke
>>736872905I miss when MGS was influencing other games instead of twitch streamer bait shit.
>>736872905Where did the nine lives thing come from
Leon is such a retardhe thinks everything he says is a zinger. literally an uncle
>>736872905humour so good they didn't need to change it
>>736879225it changes depending on how many marios you have left
I keep getting migi and ishi confused...
>>736879225google.com is a good website for basic queries like this
>>736880453This should be illegal
>>736873120"Your right hand is removable?" sounds way worse.
>>736872905>the english localisation is objectively superior while retaining the jokebased
>>736872905>送り込んだi fucking hate 込む words so fucking much
>>736880664Is that the only way you can handle potential form in english?
>>736880808You only hate it because you're trying to attach an english word to it and it doesn't work.
>>736880808I still don't know what 込む、切り、and all those kind of compound words mean. I'm only N3 though.
>>736872905It's not Japanese humor if the character is American.
>humor>Humor, Japan
>>736872905kino
>>736880947込む usually just adds emphasis of some sort. What that is depends on the verb it's attached to. 押し込む is to push/cram into something, 読み込む is to read thoroughly, 飲み込む is to gulp down, etc.
>>736880947引き込んで下さい
>>736872905It's insane how hard the english translation mogs the direct japanese one. All media should have a rewritten script to get rid of all the unnecessary directness.
Does anyone know if the bingo line is translated exactly as it is in the Japanese version of OG 4? I know it's changed in the remake because Leon has Japanese voice acting in that one.You know what I mean? Does the original with Japanese subtitles have Leon say "Where'd everybody go? Bingo?"
>>736872905there is no japanese voice acting in re4 so it's unsurprising the subtitles are just a translation of the english dub script
>>736883396Wikipedia exists. The writer was Shinji Mikami.
How the fuck do people read kanji, is it like looking at a hieroglyphic?
>>736883561It's really not that hard once you get used to it, but starting off SFC era games can be hell
>>736873120"Comes off" connotes potential, it has the same meaning. Very good translation.>>736874002"Dispose of" carries the connotation of an assassin leaving no trace. Do you also get confused in mafia movies when they say, "I'll make sure it's taken care of", referring to murder? It doesn't mean that they're going to provide care.
>>736872905westerners see puns as lame and unfunny and that's why the remake has to scrub away any trace of japanese from games
>>736883235
>>736884310>connotation of an assassin leaving no traceI don't know why'd you make it a connotation.>"Comes off" connotes potential,No I was obviously just wrong. 取れる can be the potential form of 取る, and that may have been what the basic translation thought but it can be the intransitive form. Which is clearly the case here. In the end though "can come off" and "comes off" both work fine enough because english isn't that specific.
>>736884859>What in the god's name of fuck is going on in this crazy ass place?
>>736882529thanks anon, you bet your ass I'll never forget this for the rest of my life
>>736872905I mean this is still correct. Sure grammatically "can come off" is more clear than "comes off" but for colloquial dialogue, the latter is more natural sounding
>>736879376>he thinks everything he says is a zinger.and he's right
>>736873264>>736878427>>736878798>>736885571>comparing two things means you're criticizing one of themInternet brain rot
>>736888426In the context of translation kind of yeah. It depends on how reconcilable the differences are, but not all translations are equal. You can be wrong.
I'm Mr. Sterling's right hand armMan
>>736873120>hololive trading cards
>>736885571It's clear to literate native speakers
>>736880536wnal shovIb de llleqal?
>>736885571>but for colloquial dialogue, the latter is more natural soundingNo it's not. In terms of "naturalness"(why is this a word) they're the same. The difference in tone. The former always has an upward inflection.
>>736872905Resident Evil has one of the worst FUCKING localizations in vidya but nobody ever talks about it.
>>736893223*is tone
>>736874150no, only arm
>>736880536they dont even look similar bro
>>736893256>worst FUCKING localizations in vidyaWhat are you comparing it to though? There are other bottom of the barrel translations, and I can't imagine Resident Evil sticking out.
>>736893256my anon please shut the fuck up because your talking shows how ignorant you are.
>>736893868God forbid a man have an opinion. Translation discourse needs to be a hug-box because opposing arguments are scary.
>>736893256I don't think I've ever seen /v/ mention one good vidya localization ever.
>>736894327because they're all bad and bigoted against the source material's country of origin in some way
>>736880947how did you even get to N3 without understanding such basic shit
>>736882529my favorite is 飛び込む
i honestly didn't realize his right hand was verdugo for quite bit of time
>>736884859>Where's everyone gone to? Fishing?Would've been a better abridged quip because of certain TV show and since Resident Evil wants to be a hollywood horror it would've been much better one liner.
>>736879376At this point in the game Leon has already seen enough shit that this question is completely genuine. The village chief already has both his legs come off.
>>736894659isn't that the joke? saladbar sent his right hand henchmen and leon thought he was talking about his real hand?
doesnt one of the bug guys becone his tentacle during the salazar boss fight?
>>736895457yes , that's left hand
>>736888426it's actually a common autistic trait
>>736888426It's the same joke
What about the "you're small time" line?
>>736895457More or less. They basically get rid of him for you, since he get 2 tentacles and in a more practical way the devs just didn't want another Verdugo fight. Hell, the first one was already skippable and there's not good reason for him to stick there because Leon took the elevator.
>>736895097Leon often tells a joke instead of saying what he actually thinks. He doesn't think every villager is going to bingo, for instance.
>>736896167see >>736884859bingo isn't real
>>736896167But what about レオン?
whats the senior moment perhaps line in japanese?
>>736894042No. You are just retarded.Resi Evil is by no means the worst out there in regards to official translations.
>>736894327because if it's not a 1:1 literal translation, then it's shit and I don't want it!!!! Yes I am autistic and wish I was japanese by the way, before you ask.
>>736896474Reon didn't mention bingo.
Who actually wrote RE4? There's no writer credited.
>>736896718Who the fuck is Reon!
>>736896753
>>736872905I don't even remember that line since I mashed through all the dialogue so I can start shooting

>>736896757You don't know Reon・S・Kenedei?
>>736897179Is that a re-color. I want レオン.
>>736894715No, anon.
>>736897281That romanization is wrong. It's レオン・S・ケネディ not レオン・S・ケネデイ
