The game's localization files are very easily accessible in the game files, they're in bundles in the game's "StreamingAssets" folder. If anyone is interested in starting a re-translation project it should be pretty easy, just gotta export the files from those bundles then import them back in.
Depending on how baffling the localization is while I play the game, I might just try doing it myself.

If you do give it a try, I will help with whatever. I don't speak Japanese, but I'm wiling to help on everything else.

Another victim of 8-4, Eiyuden Chronicle, the final project the Suikoden series creator worked on, writing included, before he passed away back in Feb:

As you can see, this exchange has a call back in the JP original, this was straight-up omitted in English:

By the looks of it, FIGSP translations are based on the English script, the exception at the moment is the Chinese script, which follows the original JP, here are some snips of the Spanish translation, basically 1-on-1 to English:

A common tactic of the deceitful is to ban and to accuse the enemy of what they are doing or like one other post mentioned is to exaggerate claims and strawman the other person's argument because they know they are in the wrong like we are noticing in the thread. The best thing anyone can do is

1. Organize curators around badly translated and censored Japanese Games like Kabrutus is doing, get followers to follow them.
2. email the creators on the Japanese end from their own website to tell them the situation and show examples of the differences between the Japanese and English versions to show how heavily they deviate from the original script. Maybe posting a few times to Social Media in Japanese might help as well.
4. Keep attacking the defenders who are tourists and show evidence to the contrary
5. Do not try to debate them anymore. It's time to just keep fighting back and be relentless.
6. If the creators decide not to do anything despite emails and do not respond, let them fall. They will either keep it in Japan and we will just fantl or they will do the thing and force a retranslation of the script from 8-4 or they will begin to automate the process with AI from Japan

It's time force change rather than ask for it.

This statement is correct on multiple levels:
1. Ruin what little good reputation they have left among the public, give them no allies.
2. Directly communicating with the seller is a great way to showcase your preferences as a buyer.
3. Smoke out the false "moderates" who are simply undercover agents.
4. Debating was worthless to begin with, when someone projects their insecurities onto others; simply calling them out on it is the best option.
5. The free market always wins.

I wish the same.

And by the way, don't even check that Iuntue Tweet anymore.
Several discord groups organized to respond and make all kinds of characterless assumptions. In addition to children spoiling the game, or organizing a mass report on Iuntue and everyone who agreed with it.

I suppose Elon saying he's going to do something about the Bots problem, and the several consecutive defeats that the side that defends this Sweet Baby/ESG shit has made them much more attentive to when to act.

I hadn't seen the bot issue being taken cared of yet that is as there is still lot of spergs acting all sorts of zesty and up in their feelings over 2d fictional women being healthy and perky and not diabetic or obese like they are lol.

Struggled to actually open the bundle files and inject them back into the game without problems, but it seems to work somewhat now. Might stumble into even more problems in the future because of how messy things are (never worked with IL2CPP Unity games for modding) but it's a start.

I didn't think of checking it but turns out I ended up with the same method through multiple google searches. The game does function differently since its text files are actually MonoBehaviour types, but they don't seem as hard to modify since I didn't actually need to be careful with hex bytes or anything like that.

Their definition of racism is different from the normal definition.
Any disagreement, joke or rejection of a black fictional character is racism for them.
They will make a scarecrow out of it ad infinitum.

(And "NRPG+Wakanda Forever Hair", was something that made them extremely angry HAHAHAHAHA)

Anyway, it's sad how this is what the gaming community has become... meanwhile, fence sitters continue to be in the position of "Perfect Person", screwing us over.

The supply always outpaces the demand of it.

Girl same, the gaming community of the 90s and 2000s was so much better back then we'd actually like games and play it instead of going on reddit and nanocritcizing it just to sound smart for validation one doesn't get irl lmao.

They've all forgotten the age old proverb: Don't feed the trolls. In this case they have not only fed the troll, but given them a full course meal on a golden platter.

I'm not sure if this is censorship but it is something weird I noticed. In the original Metal Gear Solid 2 for the PS2 the name entry screen has a sex and blood type option, while those were removed from the HD edition and all subsequent versions. The HD versions of MGS2/3 were made by Bluepoint Games, the same people behind the Demon's Souls remake that replaced gender with "body type".
