Ah yes, the loocalizer is gonna call this forum, a site basically calling out idiots "irrelevant". Suck to be talked about and basically put in your place, doesn't it?

Since meru owns a Localization company and she uses social media a lot to display her victim complex, lets talk about how her company has handled localization of Hakuchuumu no Aojashin.
English release has changed the setting from Highschool to college. this is what she said about that change:
FIcIT_tWYAAbiC_


she tweeted this about highschool settings in general, a year before this events:

whatever BS argument theyre now using to deflect criticism, its true that the company's owner doesnt think very highly of this type of setting.

very professional

"why yes I am demanding Japanese devs to do something that benefits me cuz I can't be fucked to put games out on any over platform over then steam"

like yea steam has a big user base so you might get more sales, but you can still put the thing out in English on DLsite or some shit, you are not limited to just steam

the arrogance of demanding devs change their games or stop making games the way they want just so you can get more sales from steam normies is peak loooocoluzooor

the reason this idiots dont make much money from fans is because they're limited to only sell the game, but look at other things that are sold together with the game

this game in the tweet is a game thats also in steam. now this guys only localise the game and dont sell the goods that the game is sold with, like figurines, posters and also dont have access to signing events.

their solution to this problem is the western company idiotic approach: lets look for more costumers for this niche stuff!

well, im not sure they're doing well with that approach.

this games were never meant to be sold as a single product. same with anime, theyre meant to be sold while also launching an entire collection of stuff related to it for it to make profit. since localisers cant do that, theyre fucked

Looks like I hit nerve. Man this individual, and he's partners get very touchy which I find it weird. Oh well, you can't please anyone.
I'm glad I took whatever little time I had during exam period to make this thread because it now lives in these faggots' heads rent-free.
you just KNOW they constantly refresh this page to see what other criticism is thrown in their direction and they are powerless to stop it. their mere talking about it is already giving this place traction, so all they can do is cope by talking about how "irrelevant" it is.

im just gonna copy-paste what I said over on the fediverse with some additions

these people a cartel

they all know each other
they all follow each other
they all speak in DMs to each other
they all stick up for one another

this is why you NEVER see them calling out their own. and why every time something like this happens you can see them responding to each other thread on things

this is a cartel and if you don't fit in with the clubhouse you get pushed out and gatekeept

you cant trust these people. they will gaslight and flat out lie to you can telling you the things that you see are problems don't exist or are not problems in the first place.

and the funny thing is all they have to do is stop being shitheads. that's it. just fucken translate the work and keep it as accurate as possible to the original meaning and dont be a cunt about it. the problem is these people want to be rockstars and have their egos stroked. so they try to make over peoples artworks "there's"

"I know how the character would say this" etc. you can see it in how they talk about what they are working on. these people legit think they are just as important as the artist's whose work they fuck with

and the cowards dont even have the balls to come into a place like this and try to explain themselves. or try to hash out our differences and try to make things right and rebuild trust. they are more than happy to sit in their Twitter hug boxes and get jacked off by their peers and fan cucksuckers then even try to understand why people are mad,

so yea. dont buy shit they work on or at least try not to. avoid companies that have bad reps. pirate shit if you feel like it, and put your money into better places that give a shit about you and the artwork they sell

This. Like many things in the western game industry, its one big disgusting incestuous clique.

There is one name especially that keeps popping up when it comes to garbage localization and that is 8-4. They somehow weaseled their way in with large publishers like Square-Enix and Bandai Namco.

They ruined many Tales games with their borderline rewrites. The absolute low points being Tales of Hearts R and Tales of Zestiria.
Oh they gave a Moogle tumblr pronouns in Final Fantasy Type-0.

They also played a major role in the trashfire that was Mighty Number 9. Remember that bat shit insane hole that was the center of most of the drama? She got the job through someone of 8-4. No doubt by sucking his dick.

The reason why people hate localizers isn't cause they're 'bad', everyone makes mistakes and I'd hope the people here aren't so irrational as to hate on someone over a mistake.
It's cause they're awful on purpose, and take enjoyment in being awful as the twitter posts archived here show.
Most of these people seem to have no love for the media they're working with, and when given any criticism they fall back into their circlejerk.
I think most of the current hatred started with the "sus" line in Niggatoro, and some guy somewhere on Varis summed it up perfectly by saying "Imagine if shows from 2008 were filled with that eras memes, and how quickly they'd age"

I'm sure someone else will be able to take this mess of a post and give a more coherent response, but might as well at least take the opportunity to talk while it's here.
