Why localizing Japan’s decades-old fantasy RPGs can be a behemoth task Meet the studios bringing Sword World and Wares Blade to the English-speaking world.

With Sword World and Wares Blade coming out in the English language for the first time, @crapstacular.bsky.social talks to the publishers about how they're overcoming the challenges of translation.

Literally translating the way the Japanese language uses quotation brackets makes everything sound sarcastic in English.

한편 극우 분파 중에는 "남자는 본인의 자식에게만 돌봄 의식을 느끼며 혈연이 없는 아동을 소유[sic]하려는 것은 착취의 의도가 다분하므로 그런 관계를 조장하는 '아빠놀이' 게임은 불건전하다(반대하면 페미니스트임)"이라는 논리로 비난을 표명하는 쪽도 있더라구요. 여러모로 대환장 파티입니다.

When my wife and I had just married, she crafted this Hoi plushie for me. 😊💚

As we married uhm… a 'few' years ago, the condition of the plushie has declined, but I thought it's fun to post here.

My wife wants me to emphasize that it was a quick prototype, not a finalized creation. 🙂

Every time I see a publisher say some stuff like "We've come up with new ways to integrate machine translation and typesetting to release comics faster! ^_^" I wonder if they realize that the problem with selling something that's identical to the pirate version is that the pirate one is free

inversion of the idle genre would be to make a game where you micromanage absolutely everything. it's a turn-based simulation game and if you don't instruct a character to breathe during their turn they just die

Thanks a lot for all the follows, everyone! I'm having soo much fun reading and viewing all the Moon Child love. 😊🙏

I'm also forwarding stuff to the other guys, including Ramon, our music composer.

54% - That's the percentage of translators (out of 235 respondents) who only receive minimal or no reference material whatsoever for the games they're working on.

Remember that figure next time you read a translation that sounds off in context!

Types of plot setups in Touhou games

Type A: There is a problem.
Type B: There is a problem. In an attempt to solve the problem, somebody causes a second problem.
Type C: There honestly isn't a problem but something a little weird is going on and we're all kinda bored so let's fight about it

How to verify localization quality when you don’t speak the target language When a game developer hires a visual artist or a sound designer, they can always check to see if they like the work with their own eyes and ears. Even...

Months after my last blog post, I *inexplicably* felt a rush of inspiration this week. This is, in essence, a guide for perfectionist game devs. No clue where I got that funny idea. Hope it helps!
