Many people will dismiss the change as irrelevant but if i go to inspect a car and i see rust i am naturally going to question the quality of the rest of the car
If i cannot trust a localizer to keep "body" as "body" without getting asshurt then how am i supposed to trust them when handling sensitive material?

We're not the target audience for localisation, twitter and their colleagues are, which is why they constantly brag about changing things and censoring content they disagree with.

Us who respect Japanese artists and want to experience their work the way they intended is the enemy because we stand in the way of them colonising Japan alongside leftists there by turning everything woke.

Colonizing is the keyword. Whether they realize it or not they are just imposing their sensibilities onto the rest of the world, and there are just too many useful idiots defending them. They call it fighting for social justice and global values, not realizing most of it is basically American baggage.

Like, most of the world doesn't have a history with black slaves. Why should WE feel any guilt, be hyper sensitive in dealing with black people/characters and give them more credits than what they deserve? Or the whole gender wars thing. They act like women everywhere are slaves to the men. Especially in many "Patriarchal" Asian countries where women stay homes while the husbands work. Yet they are too dumb too know that it's customary in many Asian countries for the husbands to give all their moneys to their wives (not just Japan) because they are the home makers and control households finances. Guess i'm not in the loop that you're supposed to give your "slaves" all your money, huh. That's why being a housewives is so desirable in Japan. It's not as bad where i'm from but i hear guys complaining their wives don't let them buy shit (with THEIR money) or play games, etc.. all the time. Who is the slave now?

Current day Localization is basically Colonization. It's just that they only have to colonize one culture (Japan), then they can force the rest of the world to swallow the same shit.

There's hope though. Apparently after Elon took over Twitter, JP users have seen a sharp increase in controversial topics trending. Shit like Feminism or alphabet soup topics used to be trending with a few thousands likes/shares. Now it's all anime shit and K-Pop with likes in the hundreds of thousands.

Sorry for the rant.

And you always ask yourself "if it's so minor and irrelevant, why was it changed?" but these clowns never have an answer. But on top of that, if that scene really was the only change in the entire game it still wouldn't be okay, no matter how irrelevant. No work should be changed for no reason, it's vandalism and disrespectful to the original creator. How would these morons feel if some fucktard across the globe just changed their work as they saw fit?

I also saw some retard talk about the Live a Live change as minor and "more true to the characters". Like what? How the fuck can some localized shit be more true to character than what the original creator wrote? I'm sure they'd know best how their characters act and not some failed writer tranny.

Yeah, even if you get past censorship every localization is still going to be ruined like that. The good translators take more prestigious fields like business and technology translation, leaving the chaff for games and anime. That's why it is best to learn Japanese and enjoy games without the middle man.

Jfc localizers are so fucking full of themselves. Insufferable cunts, every single one of them
Yes this loser obviously knows more about the industry than ken akamatsu and his colleagues when him and his butt buddies scoffed at their concerns of western influence abd coercion

"Dont freak out about pixivs diversity and inclusion statement" it isnt an omen you are being cringe and paranoid

The fact that he does not see the irony in his fucking statement just pisses me off beyond belief

He just fucking said it himself. That's the only fucking reason. Yet he still acts like it's because of something that only someone "in the know" would know, and that it's okay sometimes.

This faggot is fine with censorship because it aligns with his ideological worldview.

He said it himself, he "knows" why Japanese entertainment gets censored but he agrees with it since it's capitulating to the globalist agenda he loves so much.

made a tweet about it here but I've noticed that a lot of people don't actually understand what translation strategies are or how they work.
literal translation for example is typically classified as unreadable gibberish when that's absolutely NOT true.
I'm gonna post the definitions I actually learned through my degree here so people have a clear idea of what this stuff actually means in the industry since localizers would rather lie through their teeth than do it.

What Is the difficulty of arabic/english translation?
It is obviously more distant from english than european language but I would assume it is closer than an asian language like japanese
