"trying to bring the English script closer to the Japanese one" Oh god, when will weebs fucking stop ruining everything. You realize this completely breaks the English dub, right? This is horrendously disrespectful to the English localization team and the voice actors. Can't believe this shit is still going on in 2023. Localization =/= direct translation. Just play in Japanese at that point. Oh wait, weebs can't actually read their precious nihongo. And way to go continuing to misuse the word 'censorship.' Really showing your age there, or lack thereof.

Go on, try to give a legitimate and unbiased reason for why this is acceptable. I'll wait.

I have no idea how you could type this entire thing out, read it over, and think this was a good thing to post.

Fuck the English dub. But sorry to tell you, 90% of these """translations""" (localizations) aren't needed and works just fine in English. And the 10% that do, can be translated to be much closer to the Japanese release than what they currently are.

"it's disrespectful to the English localization team"
Wahhh, go cry to them. Localizers deserve no respect. I want to play the game as it's intended. Not the localizers fanfic version of it. Go suck them off some more.

"Just play in Japanese"
How about you just play the crappy release and leave us to play whatever the hell we want? This ain't affecting you. Just say you like to complain when people fix garbage and go.

"Go on, try to give a legitimate and unbiased reason for why this is acceptable."
Because fans are doing the job that the lawlcolizers were apparently hired to do. You don't like it? Don't download it. Fag actually so mad that they went out of their way to go to the site, make an account, and cry.

Terrible bait, but I'll bite anyway:

>when will weebs fucking stop ruining everything
When localizers stop censoring shit and injecting American politics and god awful zoomer memes into Japanese media.

Good. Don't care. I don't play Japanese games to listen to Americans attempt voice acting nor care about the American script rewrite.

You're one of those retards that can't watch a non english film with subtitles but rather wait for it to be "adapted" by some hack pedowood director.

Can't believe this shit is still going on in 2023. Localization =/= direct translation. Just play in Japanese at that point.
Muh current year. Why should people be forced to play in another language when the translation should be accurate to begin with?

The whole point of localisation is rewriting the script, it's vandalism nothing more.

Give a legitimate reason why an accurate translation isn't acceptable, I'll wait.

FYI Very few people are actually "weebs". Weebs reject the culture of the homeland to embrace Japans culture. Nobody does that. Weeb is like "Woke". Just used to describe an anime watcher or hentai enjoyer.

Localizations are not really the problem. The problem is we are being handed localizations INSTEAD of direct translations. If both options were avaliable that would be acceptable. Companies refuse to do this however because they think the west cannot understand asian nuance.

Kuroko No Basket is an example of a good translation. It keeps in a specific characters puns and just writes them out literally. You would need to understand a small amount of japanese to understand some of his jokes. I will link said jokes below. I highly suggest you step back and look at the big picture. It might seem like "harmless localization". However what it really is, are westerners trying to see how far they can push censorship under the guise of contextual translation.

Why don't you answer the question first? How is censoring art because some people got their fee fees hurt about certain things in a piece of media a "legitimate and unbiased reason"?

I'm not expecting you to reply cause this is your only message so you ran away like the coward you are but if you do come back please enlighten us mister expert.

On a somewhat unrelated topic, does anyone have recommendation on which model mods you can choose for FE Engage ? I'm not sure how many are available and how many were nuked out of orbit by those modding sites, so I'm asking in case there's something obscure I might miss out. NSFW and the likes are fine too.

"Just play in japanese"

Or you could just not remove and add random shit based on your own personal biases. I have the time to learn Japanese, but what about the people who don't and want this translation? They should just go fuck themselves so you can own the chud weebs? You people are fucking pathetic and it's honestly an insult that I have to share a planet with you.
To reinforce this point with an example, the only reason I have time to even be on this forum is because I'm between jobs at the moment. If that wasn't the case, I wouldn't really be here other than to download the mod when it gets an update. So dedicating enough time to learn Japanese sufficiently to play games in Japanese just isn't an option for me at the moment. On top of that I have a lot of difficulty learning new languages. Spent a whole 3 years on French when I was younger and all I can say now is "Je ne parle pas français." (Translation: I don't speak French)

Been living in SK for a LONG TIME. Since childhood. I lived in america for most of my child life but even living in Korea so long, my Korean is fucking awful. I practice and go to classes. Just so hard to learn as an adult. If someone in my position could not learn local language then how do people expect non natives and non residents of a country to learn? Especially with so little time to do so as you have said yourself.

These people saying "just learn japanese" have no clue how hard languages are. That's why anime fansubs have been popular since as far back as anime has been in the west. I like to imagine these people going to JP and telling them to "just learn English" when they want translations to western media and getting punched in the head.

I think most of the people who say that already did learn Japanese and want other people to experience games in the best possible way. At least that is the case for me.

And yes, if Japanese people want to enjoy western media then they should learn English too.

Sorry, referring to the anti translation groups who are saying that. In general learning the language is the best option but not always feasable for most. So people like cris with true translations are a blessing. Fansubs carry most eastern media coming to the west. Without fansubs anime would not be as big as it is today IMO.

If people want translations that are true to the material, no harm in that. If people want to shame others for wanting that service, they are strange. Nobody is harmed by the creation of fansubs except those who WANT to be offended.

I think when people say that it's harder to learn a language as an adult, they think so for the wrong reasons. In many cases, it's actually easier to learn as an adult. The main difference is simply exposure. When growing up, your mother tongue is all you hear and read. You are constantly surrounded by it, so you naturally pick it up, and as you don't know any other words for the things around you yet they are easier to remember because you cannot express yourself in any other way.

But think about how many years you still spend improving that language, the difference in how you express yourself as a kid and as an adult. You probably couldn't even read a solid novel until you were quite a few years into school. You can reach that point in Japanese a lot faster as an adult, as long as you expose yourself to the language enough, daily. That's the reason many people think it's harder to learn a language as an adult, insufficient exposure. Of course it's harder to get as much exposure from media as you get growing up in the language's country, where it's basically forced exposure 24/7, but you can still get pretty close to it.

I'm only a bit over half a year in and the start was definitely difficult and discouraging, but I also did not spend that much time with the language outside of doing daily Anki/Grammar. I'm definitely still lacking in a lot of places, but my understanding has gone up immensely ever since I started reading and listening more. That's also the point where it actually becomes fun to learn the language, because all you are doing is what you wanted to do anyway: spend time with Japanese media and learning new words that way. And having fun makes it easier to remember stuff. There's also just a lot of things you pick up subconsciously once you see them enough times through repeated exposure.

Of course, some people struggle more with languages than others. Now I don't know anything about you, but could it be that you mostly stick to English-speaking bubbles? That would obviously cause insufficent exposure. Of course, simply having little interest in the language will make it harder for you to learn it as well but again - I don't really know you so these are just guesses.

But yes, people who say shit like "just learn Japanese if it bothers you that much" should tell that to the "translators" instead, they are getting paid to bring the media to another language after all yet they can't seem to do it properly. I'm aware that most of it is done on purpose rather than due to insufficent knowledge of the language, but still.

Not too sure. Living in SK would be good enough exposure right? I go out daily and interact with Korean natives. Usually have to rely on translators because of my inability to hold a discussion. Might just be something lacking in me. Some people for example cannot drive a car no matter how hard they practice, despite MOST people being able to. Maybe the same for language? Not sure. Could also be that I am just stupid. Never did to well in school, my information retention is awful. Like, day before exam cramming was the only way for me to pass. For social bubbles most forums for me are Korean or Japanese speaking. Tend to force myself to use it to learn as exposure is the best teacher. Always had a rough time with it though. Really do want to learn Korean though. Makes dating prospects easier for example. Just extremely difficult despite my personal investment and time spent.

I see. As I've said, I do understand that some people will naturally struggle more with languages than others. But since you do have an interest in the language and are seemingly interacting with the language enough I believe it's simply a matter of time. Maybe another reason is that you are trying to learn 2 languages at the same time?

Really, the only advice I can give you is to keep at it if you are motivated enough.

Well if you are relying too much on translators then maybe you are not getting efficient practice. That's like trying to practice Japanese by watching anime with English subs.

Also remember that conversing in a language and understanding a language are two separate skills, even though they seem similar.
