Based on the official Xseed localization (DS European version) with fixes for continuity.
Finally.
>>12715170Patch: https://romhackplaza.org/translations/flower-sun-and-rain-english-translation-playstation-2Port author is Patchbay Works and can be followed on bluesky.
>>12715170Neat, the DS version was alright from what I remember, not my favorite Suda game. It plays like a survival horror game without combat more than an adventure game, puzzles are logical but not very natural to the environment, but you buy it since it's a crazy Suda game.
>>12715179>blueskyThanks, I’ll wait for AI instead
>>12715179>Port author is Patchbay Works and can be followed on bluesky.Thanks, totally-not-the-author
What's the difference between the DS and PS2 versions? I own the DS version but have not played it yet.
>>12715223Wikipedia says DS was apparently a bad port that ruined the game's reception.
>>12715223DS is a downport with worse/different sound and worse graphics and touch controlsPS2 is the full quality original version but lacks the localizationThe European localization was released first, the NA script came later with more "editing changes". This PS2 fan patch uses the first one and further corrects it for consistency with other games (previously jp-only back when this was first out)
>>12715268>The European localization was released first, the NA script came later with more "editing changes". This PS2 fan patch uses the first one and further corrects it for consistencyand the NA touchup didn't already do that? Weird. Not often that the extra time is used to worsen a script.
>>12715170>Faggot, Slop & Redditi'll pass
>>12715275Not that weird when you think about it. Xseed's goals behind the fix (they deliberated whether the game "is suitable for western audiences") and a fan's goal behind it (consistency with other non-Xseed games, accuracy) don't necessarily align. And it wouldn't be the only time Xseed delayed a game to worsen a localization (you can datamine the original En localization for Rune Factory 5 without the lgbt changes, that was a 1.5 year delay. For Friends of Mineral Town remake, a serviceable localization was ready day and date with the jp version with proper grammar and everything, but ut wasn't lgbt friendly enough because it used "best friends" so they spent an extra year rewriting that localization so that everyone in that valley is aggressively hitting on you at all times whenever requesting basic services from shops.)
>>12715170Blood+ One Night Kiss and Moonlight Syndrome when
>>12715297Holy shit I hate globohomo so much.
>>12715339>Blood+ One Night Kisslooks like shovelware slopand it's a vidya adaptation of some tranime, so you know that hack Slopa51 butchered it with his pretentious pseud faggotry as he did with Samuari Champlo a game localized in the west so no one gives a fuck about it
>>12715179>can be followed on blueskyso it's a worthless patch then
kek this guy is really seething
I might restart this game now that the PS2 version is playable in english. I didn't get very far in the DS version (last thing I remember is a pink alligator) due to losing interest.
>>12715179I'll stick with the DS version, thanks. I'm not going to cotton to libtards and I can see the other based people on VR aren't either
>>12715179>bluesky So what liberties does the patch take?
>bluesky
Wtf I was just thinking about how we'll never get a remaster of this like we did Silver Case & 25th Ward. I think this is as good as its going to get.
>>12715170Only Suda game's I've played are Killer7 and No More Heroes.I actually have The Silver Case loaded up, and was thinking of starting it soon, so great timing for this.
>>12715409>and it's a vidya adaptation of some tranime, so you know that hack Slopa51 butchered it with his pretentious pseud faggotryNot really. The story is more in line with Silver Case with some of the anime cast hanging around than whatever the fuck Samurai Champloo Sidetracked was.
>>12715339There's more in the works so I assume the first one is next considering screenshots were posted of it in english.>>12715573That's still an official localization and still the same script minus not acknowledging the silver case localization exists>>12715775A remaster would be best considering Suda actually oversaw the localization of the silver case unlike FSR DS.
>>12715179>bluesky It's funny how little details like that thrown in tell you everything you need to know about what you're dealing with. Another trannoidized, censored patch nobody needed except people who don't play the game anyway.
>all the anons talking about the hacker's fruity social media site (which theoretically makes it gay)>not enough people talking about how this is an edited/'fixed' scriptport of the existing official translation for the handheld version (which theoretically makes it based)You people are gayer sometimes I swear.
>>12716596FSR is reddit-core, so tranny-codedbluesky is tranny-codedofficial localization is tranny-codedIt needs>ESL proofread it and made shit up using AI until it's barely a trannylation anymore (tranny-coded guardrails)so that the tranny-coded polarities cancel each other and it's kosher for the israelgpt crowd. >>12716596>not enough people talking about how this is an edited/'fixed' scriptport of the existing official translation for the handheld version (which theoretically makes it based)I won't be as generous as to trust it too much, but the mere choice of the european script is sacrilegious for american localization defenders and they still did it so i'll take it as a good sign until more high effort hateposting proves otherwise
the anon above is really seething, lol
>>12716596>all the anonsIt's one guy.
>>12717554Nah, no one likes your kind
>>12717604And what is "my kind"
>>12715268>>12715297the only good posts in this dogshit thread, thanks
>>12717659NpMore info surfaced and it's faithful to the DS version to a fault, most references to the silver case are untouched and they missed some references to DS exclusive features (a flowchart, and some optional shit puzzles), though they plan on updating it to fix that.Autists who did JP PS2/DS Europe script comparisons looking for faults apparently praise how direct and faithful it is (aside from how unfamiliar the original translators are with TSC) but that didn't keep a separate team from translating the JP PS2 script from Japanese directly. They still to release their version next so it's too soon to judge
