Oh Toby, it’s unfortunate to read such a segregating and classist comment from you. The only thing that makes me happy is knowing that millions of people will end up playing with unofficial translations (and possibly many more errors) or without understanding anything, exactly what you don’t want.

A grande questão é que lazer e diversão não tem que servir para “nada útil”, seja leitura ou game. Esse utilitarismo constante de tudo me cansava nos game studies de linha mais pedagógica ou social.

Eu fiz um post que “hitou” na rede que mais desprezo (LinkedIn, argh) e fiquei com mixed feelings sobre quem eu sou no mundo depois disso. :(

PS 2. What motivated me to write this thread was actually a conversation — I was about to post in Portuguese recommending the best games I played this year, but when I mentioned these games to a friend in person, he pointed out they were English-only and said, “I won’t be able to play them.” 😞

PS. I know many of you are indie teams (or “one person team”, even) — but these games are gaining real visibility. Please consider partnering locally or allocating budget for this much-needed Portuguese translation.

These three are incredible. But I hate recommending them with a warning: “Only if you understand English REALLY well.”

Brazil has one of the largest gaming (and loud) communities in the world.

We deserve access too. 💔

But why is that a big deal? Well…

These are text-heavy, narrative-first games.
You need to understand the language — not just to play, but to actually get the jokes, the lore, the political undertones, and the emotional weight behind each line.

No PT-BR = lost in translation.

Played some of the best games of 2025:

Deltarune @tobyfox.undertale.com

Blue Prince @rawfury.bsky.social

Promise Mascot Agency kaizengameworks.bsky.social

Brilliant writing, bold design, tons of lore — but with a big problem for me: none of them are available in Portuguese.

Sei que não é necessariamente isso mas contabilizar hobbies pra mim tira toda a graça deles, tipo nossa ouvi 800h de podcast esse ano, li 47 livros... Tá, é pra ser produtivo, ou pra se divertir? E se produtivo, com que fim? O que a gente ganha com isso?
