https://github.com/rsc-pl/Unicorn-Overlord-UnburgerThe game is finally playable.
Oh its that unburger anon, nice. They're pretty autistic, probably too literal for some, but getting to see XB2 uncensored was worth it
>>751322662>They're pretty autistic, probably too literal for someThat's exactly how I like it.
>>751322528What was the problem with the translation? I thought the dialogue was kino. I played with english dub
>>751322723>What was the problem with the translation?There was no translation, it was a shameless rewrite.
>>751322528Sell me on the game. I've always liked the art style of it, but never seen any gameplay. Is it turn based?Did it get the (((localization))) treatment?
>>751322723It uses big flowery language that ESL thirdies loath since they can’t read it without google translate. No, it’s better that dialogue be short, bland, and literal like muh fan-translated Japanese anime subs.
>>751322528>unburgerBased.
Nope. I trust official translations more done by native English speakers that got legal approval and permission from the Japanese company to translate and localize.
>>751322723The original was fine. This seems like one of the more unnecessary unburger patches. Unfortunately the guy just runs it through AI now so shit like this will get made.
>>751322835It's kind of the best version of an autobattler long before mobile games ruined the concept. You set up troop synergy and guide them in real time. The localization isn't FE Fates bad, more like FFT thee and thou injections
>>751322528The English translation is 100% accurate though what
More like fanfic translationsI hate localizers, but I also hate "in my head, it says THIS!" fan "translations"There is no winning, go learn japanese yourself.
>>751322528I’ll use it if it’s not AI mtl.
>>751323021The link in the OP literally has examples of it not being accurate though?
Already played it and enjoyed it, I'm good
The game needs a complete gameplay rebalance, not some autistic rewrite because ESLers cannot understand fancy English.
what happened? did they troonify the translation or something?
>>751323105Not really
Reminder that the same Discord troons why tried to brigade hate against Dragon’s Dogma 2 were trying to do the same thing with Unicorn Overlord, but when they couldn’t find a sexual censorship angle to tackle they tried to push the “b-b-but the localization BAD!” narrative to get people to preemptively hate it. And since these people never stop being schizos, they’re trying to double down on the belief that it always needed “fixing.”
>>751322723>What was the problem with the translation?L*calisers
>>751322723It was fine. The entire "controversy" was caused by one guy who doesn't know Japanese complaining that it wasn't identical to a machine translation.>>751323120Yeah, any sort of rebalancing would actually be significant.
>>751323021>The English translation is 100% accurate
There are "people" ITT who actually defend this
but I already played the whole game. If anything just make al the woman naked or take out the love events and turn them into anime
>>751323275Okay?
>>751322528Fucking based. I wanted to puke when reading that trash localization.
>>751323103Not only is it AI, all the documentation is AI tooThis example basically sums it up.>Ancient Dragon Skull -> Ancient Dragon Bone >Original: 古代竜の骨 >Explanation: 骨 is bone; the item is not specifically a skull.>pic related is the itemThis kind of patch for Fire Emblem Fates or Xenoblade 2 and other trainwreck localizations are good, but this one is just pointless slop
>>751323120The ESLers are the ones that feel smart when they play this game or WotL. An actual English speaker isn't impressed by theatrical dialogue.
>>751323105Just skinned through it and holy fuck is that shit the most autistic garbage ever. >”The originar Japanese had drinking sounds here. Dirty English put in a rine of actuar diarogue. Now it reads rike cum guzzring as it shourd!”
>>751323021You don't understand. It needs to incredibly direct, dry, and boring. Every character needs to say "It can't be helped." even though nobody says this except Japanese people.Instead of "Ms" or "Mr" "san" must be used even if its setting is medieval fantasy europe and Japanese honorifics sound retarded when paired with English. I am deeply insecure about my country's inferiority and believe I know more about how the English language should be used even though I only learned English to watch youtubers and american cartoons when I was 10 years old.This post was brought to you by hans miguel muller jansseens sanchez
>>751323361>it's good when localisers make up dialogue out of thin air actually
>>751322528How’d they manage /ourgirl/?
>>751322865you lost
>>751323445By the time I got to the north lands I dropped the game
>>751323287>>751323361Brought to you by the same sexless losers who cried about that Fire Emblem girl’s dialogue being reduced to “RAWR!” in the translation. Actual fucking retards.
lolicalization apologists doing damage control itt
>>751322528When's Eiyuden Chronicle?
>>751322528difficulty mod?
>>751323201normally i'm the type to nitpick about translations but these are fine? all the text has the same meaning with just a little fantasy fluff thrown in
>>751323287Why can't they just translate... There's nothing to "localize" about a gulping sound. There's not a single valid excuse for this.
>>751323503>using sexless loser as an insult on fucking /v/What happened to this place?
but i speak japanese fluently for 20 years so i played it in japanese alreadywhy would i want to play it in engl*sh?
>>751323503You defended Saizo and Beruka's C support, didn't you?>>751323571/v/ (4chan in general, really) has been infested by normalfags for years
>>751323541More likely the localizers themselves seeing as how they're all terminally online faggots.
>>751322528That's cool and all, but how about something really useful like translating the Dragon Crown's adventure book that we never got (which was the inspiration of Veritas Tales).
>>751322528>Ctrl + F "Yahna">0 resultsI don't care
>>751323571calling someone an incel is literally the only argument these people know
>>751323310He doesn't say the second line, retard.
>>751323787Not that there's a problem with that.
>>751323201I do have to agree that this fantasy writing where instead of saying 'Oh my god" they say something like "By odin's beard" or in that screenshot "Galerius's foot!" I'm sure they think they're the most clever writer in the world, as well.
>>751323787What second line, goynius.
>Thread immediately beset by localisers defending their rewritesUsually it at least takes a couple dozen replies before they show up, god damn.
>>751323863How is the english version there not accurate, in fact, even more so?
>>751323787And?Who fucking cares?
>>751322528Thank you anon, ignore the troons on this thread defending the trannylations.
>>751322723/v/ once again proving localizers were right all along, and they prefer punched up dialogue
>>751323358>stuck between faggot localizers and retarded AIGrim reminder
>>751323201I prefer it. UO is clearly a western-inspired game so I like the bongtalk.
>>751324028well i'm glad you like eating feaces but most people don't
>>75132386390% of people still posting on /v/ are just trying to get replies.They aren't posting their true opinions or even shilling for a definite purpose.The sole consideration that goes into writing a post is: will someone reply to this?
>>751323925How is it accurate at all? In Japanese he understands the situation and is sending his knight away, in English he's a scared kid who doesn't know what's going on. Beyond the translation being completely off it's not even the same character.
>>751323724Alain is so lucky to have Chloe as his sexretary and Scarlett as his wife
>>751323370>Every character needs to say "It can't be helped." even though nobody says this except Japanese people.Do you think characters should say redditspeak like "it be like that, eh?"
>switch version>Recomp is PS4 versionOh well
>>751324064But the right is better and more enjoyable to read than the more literal one. If purity matters so much learn Japanese.
>>751324101Take your meds
>>751323370>Every character needs to say "It can't be helped." even though nobody says this except Japanese people.The famous Japanese person, James Bond
>>751324205>OHH LOOK AT ME I LIKE STUFFING MY FACE WITH POOP NOM NOM NOM...okay?Don't bring it to me.
>>751323370>"It can't be helped."I was watching the 1970s movie The Wild Geese recently and they say that line. It just stuck out to me because I always see faggots on 4chan trying to say that no one ever says it. I think unread, uncultured otaku loser with no exposure of language outside of their porn addiction should not comment on what people do and do not say.
>>751322528Sweet, I'll use this next time I replay it.>>751323201When the fat fuck loses in combat the audio clip says "IEEEAARGH!" and the text box has a fucking wall of made up text. Pretty embarrasing.
>>751323370>It needs to incredibly direct, dry, and boring.Timmies can't handle spicy localizers.
>>751322528I'm glad ai is finally killing all the trannies
>>751322528How about one for Thirteen Sentinels? Now that's a godawful rewrite.
>>751323550There were a few that did some retarded shit like"This is where the Dark Elves live">"""localized""" to something like"This is where the Dark Elves live, not that theres anything wrong with them living here of course."
>>751324205it's worse and filled with reddit tier quips yet at the same time unnecessarily verbose
>>751324258This isn't a healthy reaction to someone liking something you don't.
>>751324430The same guys are working on that too, but there's no public release yet.
>>751322528What was wrong about this TL specifically? I didn't see any spergout during release.
>>751322662>probably too literal for someI bet the retranslation also takes many liberties it's just that those liberties are in good faith as opposed to being the translator's fanfiction.
>>751324472Not wanting to be near someone smearing themselves and eating literal dripping liquid fetal shit is not healthy?Sure thing, bud.You do that, I'll keep my distance, I don't wannt you to spray it on me when you chow it down like a good boy.
>>751324545From looking at the documentations, it seems there wasn't really anything wrong with the original and this is for people who prefer reading MTL output
>>751322528The only fucking PS4 dump is a shitty patch of the chinese version. Does this support it?
>>751324448I hate quips and I really don't remember any. Most if not all the characters are extremely dry and muted which I appreciated. You get this real sense that war isn't fun and it's taken its toll on everyone. If anything I thought the dialogue was too understated. Also I'm sad that the colosseum girl had so few interactions with others.
>>751324545Nothing, absolutely nothing.This is an AI thread made by AIthe "retranslation" is also made by AI lol
>>751324545>I didn't see any spergout during release.You had your eyes closed the whole time then? It had such a huge spergout it even had the big gaming sites like IGN running articles on it.
>>751322528coolthis was one of those games where knowing a little japanese was enough to make it obvious that localizers fucked it but not knowing enough japanese to just play it in jap sucked
>>751324545the script is really bloatedbut still way better than things like Fire Emblem localization which are just blatant rewrites
>>751324650It's for the switch version
>>751322865>it uses *western fan fiction*. No, it's better that the dialogue be *the original, the one made by the actual devs and writers*ftfy
>>751324595You realise you're mentally ill right? Seek help.
>>751322662>>751324593>original Japanese"We must go over there and defeat the bad guy.">lolcalization"Yeppers, well just got gotta mosey on over there and give the bad guy a good thrashing.">good faith localization"Let's go! The bad guy's over there"
>>751324736ffsNobody gives a fuck about the resolution?
>>751324545This example. Here's a line that pretty similar between games. It's also very basic. The fan translation of FE3 to the right and to the left Unicorn Overlord and a re-translation that's supposed to mimic UO. This is also basic Japanese, there's not really a ton of room for reinventing the wheel. Entire game is like this.
>>751324664It took almost a decade for people by hand to translate one Super Robot Wars game but in a span of 6 months there's been AI translations of over a dozen titles in the series.Fantranslations and unlocalizations have lost all meaning now.
>>751324759The game is western-inspired and I'm not sure Japanese even allows for olde-engish mannerisms even if they wanted to. I remember watching an interview with a Japanese Dev who actively courted British voice actors and localisers to give that more authentic feel to the writing instead of run of the mill American translations.
>>751324762Yeah the guy who doesn't like eating shit is mentally ill, NOT the guy stuffing his gullet with poop.Lmao.
More words = better writing
>>751324792>has to make shit up to prove a pointYou're no better than the localisers
>>751323201The localizations are better in this case, flowery dialogue works better in a medieval setting
>>751324851>It took almost a decade for people by hand to translate one Super Robot Wars gameSurely you don't mean Alpha where they spent 20 years sitting with their thumbs up their asses instead of actually doing anything with the game, right?Fan translations have a huge issue of dipshits claiming a game and spending years doing nothing, then some other group releases a partial TL for the same game and suddenly the original group is ready to release their version shortly after.
>>751324870Liking what you don't like != eating poop. I'm sorry you're so emotionally unstable it must affect you in daily life.
>wordswordswordswords
>>751323724
>>751325038No, not eating poop doesn't affect me in daily life.
>>751324884>>751325042>>751323201This is quite flowery but it's not out of place either. To be honest all you're really proving is that the Japanese dialogue was extremely sexless.
>>751324792>Says original Japanese>Posts EnglishMeaningless. I could take>母上に力になってくれAnd claim the literal translation is >Become mother's strength.Like 力になる isn't Jisho as "to be helpful". A lot of awkward "literal translation" is just someone being retarded and not using obvious solutions.
>>751325094I wish you the best with your scat fetish, jeet-kun.
>>751325165and that's how it should have beenyour job is to translate, tranny, not to punch up the script
>>751325165Your post needs more WORDS
>>751324854>I'm not sure Japanese even allows for olde-engish mannerisms even if they wanted toThere's old fashioned japanese talk, it's noticable in like period dramas. Super overly polite that if you talked like that to someone today they'd think you're retarded or being sarcastic.
>>751322528>AI sloppa that ignores the names Kamitani specifically told the English version to useEehh... I'll pass, thought it'd be an UO recomp which would at least be more interesting
>>751325372Alain gets to fuck THAT!?!?!?!

>>751325226>I could take>>母上に力になってくれ>And claim the literal translation is>>Become mother's strength.nta that is the translation what are you saying
I respect you, trannylators. But only in japanese (in english you're retarded)
>My reaction when I see a comparison picture of original texts vs translation >It can't be helped, haha
>>751325308You don't get to define what the job entails because you're not the one hiring for it. They did the job they were paid to do, and audiences liked it. You're an autist.>>751325353bottom is less words thoughbeit
>>751325226>see there's one sentence in the game that's pretty much untranslatable, that means we have to rewrite 99% of the script to fit the western lexicon
>>751325301Still not eating poop.Nothing you can say will persuade me to join in your sick fetish.
>>751322528Canon wife. Witchfags and cousinfuckers stay seething.
>>751322528Literal AI slop what the fuck?
>>751325552What are you guys arguing about becoming someone's strength is grade 1 japanese
>>751323105Some are fine but some of the changes are max autism, and not the "You are diligent so I'll call you an autist" but in the "Doesn't understand romantic undertones" autistic.This for example.--Another Ring conversation goes even further:Japanese:私でよければ、どうか…お傍にいさせてくださいOfficial English:I would love nothing more than to be your bride, Alain. I accept, a hundred times over.Revised translation:If you'll have me, please... let me stay by your side.Primm asks to remain at Alain's side. The bride, the acceptance and the hundred times over are all additions.--The translation is obviously exaggerated but the Japanese line is 100% a response to a proposal. You'd have to be giga autistic to not see the romantic undertones.
>>751322919And what does your girlfriend's bull think about that?
>>751325565But Chloe is the canon wife? She's the only one with the canon daughter
>>751325657The classic medieval fantasy marvel quip
>>751323934>"Lol bro who cares about inaccuracy and literal fan fiction, stop being such a nerd"Every time with you morons. You begin by saying it isn't inaccurate, then when shown inaccuracy you move the goalpost into saying it doesn't matter.
>>751322723Not trying to be mean, but do you even like jap games? Might want to try different mediums or games.
>>751325552>力になる is untranslatable.>助力する。助ける。>頼りにできる。頼れる。This concept just doesn't exist in English because as we know all English speakers are selfish motherfuckers who could never consider helping their fellow man.
>>751323934>The script is 100% accurate>posts inaccuracy>AND?
>>751325638>Some are fine but some of the changes are max autism, and not the "You are diligent so I'll call you an autist" but in the "Doesn't understand romantic undertones" autistic.This is very ironic because you're arguing for a line with a very obviously implied acceptance in its undertone to be replaced with a direct and exaggerated statement of overt acceptance. This is literally you demanding any subtlety be thrown out the window because you think people won't understand what's obviously being said otherwise.
>>751325770Are you okay?
>>751323201Playing the retranslation, the retards replying for "flowery" made up bull shit are fucking faggots.
>>751325716Watch out, you just triggered step 3: insult the guy who pointed out your bullshit. Get ready to be called a virgin.
>>751324792They did an unburger for the new Fire Emblem and some of the changes were really retardedLike they took characters who are canonically Chinese and have Chinese names, and rewrote their names using the Japanese spelling instead. Like Dadao became DaitoBut that's just not how Chinese names work in English
Oh shit.Translation was the reason I dropped the game.
I don't give a shit about the translation.Give me a hard mode, mod support and level scaling so you can do regions out of order
>>751322528Look at those tits
Where's that tweet that says something like liberals pretend not to understand the argument so conversation is impossible.
>>751325801No Anon, you don't understand. The people who are notorious for writing pathetic romcoms full of retarded misunderstandings and for using the phrase, "the moon is beautiful, isn't it" as a romantic appeal would absolutely be direct and straightforward when it comes to feelings and marriage!
For people asking about the translation, some bilingual guy talked about it.>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fk_D7lV9Eiw
>>751325801Don't get me wrong, I don't like the official one either since it is, as you say, far too on the nose. But it isn't wrong to lean more towards the fact that it is accepting a proposal. Japanese are very seldom direct, whereas English often is direct. You need some kind of halfway point.
>>751325638I genuinely don't understand you people the revised translation is better>she should talk like thisBut she doesn't, she has an established character with dialogue suited to it. You can't just decide her to be something else.
>>751325770>wooow look at that there's 1 added joke that isn't there in the original>what? you thought it was funny and harmless?>NOOOO THE GAME IS LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE NOW BECAUSE OF THIS ONE LITTLE NITPICYou're mentally ill, take your meds and calm down.

>>751326330I really can't explain it any better than that you don't understand Japanese if you think that line isn't caked with undertones. It is a shame that it has become so polarized that no middle ground exists anymore, you are either in the full on literal translation camp or the troon squad camp.
>>751322835>Sell me on the game. I've always liked the art style of it, but never seen any gameplay. Is it turn based?It's like Ogre Battle. Not Tactics Ogre. You pre-set a formation of characters in a unit and then command them around a map, and when they encounter an enemy it switches to a battle scene which is automatically executed based on the commands you set for them like FF12's gambits.>Did it get the (((localization))) treatment?In a sense. If you played Tactics Ogre LUCT / Reborn, it's like, imagine that style, except it was attempted by someone who has no talent for writing and a bad sense of humour.

>>751326851>Localization: how a man of his stature and role would talk in a western fantasy.The problem is everyone talks the same regardless of stature and role, so it was just fluffling up the script for the sake of it.
>>751326871I would have called them lolcowlizers
>>751323201Right: if you played the game you know why the character speaks in a so strange way. Only he speaks like that, it's a character trait.Left: generic dialogue, it can be applied to literally every character.
>>751326871si señor
>>751326851>Localization: how a man of his stature and role would talk in a western fantasyBullshit.
>>751326934Literally no one says that.
>>751326949>everyone talks the sameLiterally no. You can distinguish dialogues and character hiding the subject. It's literally the opposite, in the original script everyone talk the same and says the same things. This is the problem of japanese since forever.
>>751326716I wanted to post that the sad reality of translating an indirect language into a direct one requires some rewriting else the English will come out as stiff, because in English you wouldn't speak like that. But saying that will immediately brand me as a troonslator despite the fact that what I'm saying is a simple fact and not a defense towards the lunacy that exists in today's translation sphere.Translation is shit precisely because you are expected to do this hence why you should just learn the fucking language instead of relying on either troons or AI.It is an extreme example, but how would you translate.>月が綺麗ですね

>>751327202Sorry, can you repeat that again in old english? That was too plain, needs more flowers

This thread has convinced that the English version is better. I’ll get it at the next sale
>>751327068>I wanted to post that the sad reality of translating an indirect language into a direct one requires some rewriting else the English will come out as stiff, because in English you wouldn't speak like that.You keep jumping out of the way of the point you fucking idiot, it's fine for that character to say something passive because it's a passive character. Other characters will say different things. There is zero reason to change everyone's dialogue to be the same bullshit because that isn't conveying the character to a western audience, that's changing the fucking character.>It is an extreme example, but how would you translate.>>月が綺麗ですねAt this point you literally don't translate it at all because it's a famous saying and saying that in itself is a reference to be recognised rather than a natural statement.
>>751322919Same. One of these translations is quite literally worthless. If they attempted to charge a single cent for it, their "fans" would discard it because that's the real point. It's massive poorfag cope

>>751327095>t. Niggerbrained zoomer who has no idea who Woes is
>>751322528For me, its that simple throwaway scenes become WORDSWORDSWORDSWORDS in every localization without fail. Readability and brevity are two important parts of writing.
>>751326594You're an aspie that doesn't understand that the Japanese has undertones and the official English HAS NO undertones, it's directly in your face. Specifically made for morons like you that can't gauge context or subtext without you actively getting curbstomped with meaning in sentences directly.
>>751323201>maybe if I dig deep into Merriam Webster it will look goodTrannyslators do this so often it's insane.

>>751327427Who the fuck would? Do you make it a point of pride to know random Xitter thirdies?
>>751324026That's the fate of retards that has incapacitated cognitive capacity to learn languages. Sucking localizer dick and being fucked in the ass with AI dildoes.All hope is not lost though. If you kill all localizers, there's no dick to shove in your throat. Hang all faggot localizers.
I don't like how Japanese people talk to eachother so the english translation wins by default.
>>751322528>jap trash version is less romanticI'm not playing some cuck version.
>>751327347I'm not so much as jumping out of the way as trying to say that EVEN that passive statement means more than it does when translated into English. >At this point you literally don't translate it at all because it's a famous saying and saying that in itself is a reference to be recognised rather than a natural statement.Please. It is a famous statement to the Japanese and a select group of Japanese culture fans but it is hardly so well known that it would pass untranslated. My point with the example is to show that you have statements that literally mean nothing in English and thus requires a rewrite if you actually want to translate the meaning. You know that was my point, so why be obtuse?
It's a translation so bad that you don't need to know either language to know it's fucked up.
the real problem with the localization is that some skill translations are entirely wrong and if you don't know HOW they are wrong you'll be confused that your attacks don't work the say they do.The dialog is perfectly understandable. They made everyone sound Shakespearian or w/e they didn't change the plot or relationships they way that one fire emblem game did.
>>751327532lamayo
>>751327217It's a problem because japanese speaks like 12 years old, their language is complicated but it's "primitive" from our standards. Every language (not only english) had a constant evolution in 6-7 steps, japanese had like 2 different languages in their total history. They speak like shit.>>751327307This, but unironically. I can set a englishman in 5 different ages, and i can guess almost exactly, just seeing how he speaks or pronounce some words.A japanese? No.
>>751326851>would talk in a western fantasyits not a "western fantasy", whatever that means you retarded mutt
>>751327607>My point with the example is to show that you have statements that literally mean nothing in EnglishYou picked a bad example then given it doesn't mean anything in Japanese either.
>>751327217There is a trend going on right now where everyone tries to copy Jap translated text because Japanese people use the same exact way of talking constantly. They quite literally end almost every sentence with with ねSo yes this is a problem with Japanese
>>751327654>The dialog is perfectly understandable.Incredibly low standards.
>>751327728Oh yes unicorn overlord has shogun, damyo, wood armors and ninjas how could i not seen them?Now fuck off retard.
>>751327802>people in real life don't talk like characters in fiction
>>751327047You simply do not know Japanese. If you legitimately have a hard time distinguishing speaking styles, you just suck at the language. This is a deflection from your own lack of proficiency.
>>751327734Now you are just being obtuse on purpose. The meaning is different from the words used, but the phrase itself obviously carries meaning."The moon is pretty, isn't it?" has zero implications of confessing your love to someone when used in English. It can be taken as a romantic statement, but in Japanese it is very obvious what you are saying whereas in English it would not be clear.
>>751327654>They made everyone sound ShakespearianThat's an insult to Shakespeare.
Luv me Wotl translationLuv me Luct translationLuv me UO translation
>>751327924No japanese speaks like toddlers. It's a pratical language born to say two things in one second. It does that? Yes, but translated in real languages, like european ones, it's cheap and extremely basic,Japanese as a language has basically no evolution or improvement except a big spin in the heian period and the tasho perod. In heian because they litterally evolved from monkeys to humans, society wise, and in the tasho because they had to integrate a lot of western culture inside theirs.
Remember that all pro-localizer talking points are inherently bad faith and disingenuous and inevitably, INEVITABLY, culminate in "the original writing was bland and boring and the localization was right to SPICE IT UP!!!"
>>751322528BasedTotal Localizer Death
>>751327802>Jap translated textNot even Jap text Jap translated text because you can't be arsed to actually understand the thing you're mocking first hand.
>>751327925>"The moon is pretty, isn't it?" has zero implications of confessing your love to someone when used in English. It can be taken as a romantic statement, but in Japanese it is very obvious what you are saying whereas in English it would not be clear.You're just being retarded on purpose. The phrase has a hidden meaning separate to the meaning of its actual words which is only known by knowing what the phrase means, because it's a linguistic reference and not a natural expression. "You don't know what it means unless you know what it means" is true regardless of whether it's in Japanese or English. It's no different to any other opaque reference or euphemism.This also has nothing to do with your fundamental failure to understand that a quiet and demure character does not need to express her reaction to a confession in the same manner as a boisterous and outgoing character and that undertones are a perfectly valid form of character expression.
>>751328006this is entirely unrelated.
>>751327925Okay, but that's a cultural thing. You're not supposed to translate that as "I love you". You're supposed to understand the cultural implication of the phrase no matter the language.Changing that phrase because "people in other languages may not know what it means" would be like changing the middle finger for a target language whose culture does not have the middle finger mean "fuck you".
>>751328006Remember when treehouse just decided americans and europeans dont deserve translated DLC because of how they talked about their localization, so the american version of fates was just missing 2 dlcs?
