LOVING the new ending. 🥰

Demand more than "You get shit AI localization at release, but don't worry, we plan on updating it at some point" from games. Bad loc is insulting, moreso than no loc. Not to mention the bad ethics & optics of genAI...

writing fanfiction and translating utilize the same skills

submitted 4 days ago • 3 comments

The "most accurate" translation is not always the most appropriate translation. We don't translate in a vacuum - we take into account a myriad of things such as the context the text appears in, the game's tone, the speaker's personality, limited interface space, specific client demands...

I never wanna hear "If you're being bullied online, just block them and move on!" again. A fuckload of people don't understand how calculated and meticulous cyber bullies are. They will make separate accounts, they'll pose as fake people, anything to make it easier to psychologically wreck- (1/2)

Indie devs and curious nerds! I've written a few articles for IGDA on localization for games, including scheduling, how to ensure good quality localization, and a guide on LQA. j-entranslations.com/game-localiz...

Kind reminder to editors and people in charge that a tiny little compliment on someone's job does A LOT for their mental health and productivity. It doesn't take time, it doesn't take much space and, most importantly, it's free! Leave a nice compliment to your local letterer/translator/proofreader.

I've noticed a lot of inexperienced (and even some experienced) translators will write in this wooden way and not realise it's unnatural. If you're an aspiring translator please, please, please read books written in your native language, not just translated stuff.

Xenoblade Chronicles is a beautiful story of open-mindedness, reception to new knowledge, and the power of the individual. Shulk is a scientifically minded boy through and through, and despite emotions and the influence of the majority and greater powers, he strives to learn and carve his own path.

Translators don't even get credited in the majority of games they translate and make available for hundreds of players in their countries.

People outside the games industry don't grasp that this is absolutely unheard of. Workers don't get royalties, and we definitely don't get performance bonuses. When we make a hit game we sometimes just get laid off

I apologise if I just like your reply instead of replying to it myself. Most of the time that's usually because I don't have the brain capacity to think of something cool or funny to respond to it. Just know you're appreciated though!

Casual note that Sakuna is 50% off rn if you play farming games sometimes and were ever like "I wonder what it would be like if I played a game that went so sicko mode on a single crop that i actually learned about real farming:", I cannot recommend it enough store.steampowered.com/app/1356670/...

Well, it happened. I just recovered another lost Tales of Mobile game, Tales of Tactics! I cannot believe I have the honor of saying I've recovered almost every lost Tales of Mobile Keitai game at this point. Check out footage here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnCQ...

The sprites are so adorable I cant 😭. I'm surprised that my speculation on battles was mostly spot on from my Tales of Mobile video. The menu are different, so I guess the image on the mock phone is the final ver? Plus I gotta start redrawing Rukku cuz she isnt a small fairy as I thought she was 😂

I am surrounded by people who are outsourcing their own thinking to ChatGPT and they are quickly and obviously becoming dependent on it for even the most banal tasks. Once again, the "figuring it out" is the important part. Yes, you can use a crane to lift weights but you will not get stronger

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders? Most translators aren't taught how to translate, they mostly learn on the job. BUT just because someone knows two languages, doesn't mean they can translate. It's still a skill one needs to learn.
