I graduated in Translation and went on to pursue a PhD in Linguistics. My flatmate in Dublin was working as a tester at Activision.
When I moved to Germany I looked for a similar job, and that's how I started working in games.

When you think you're done with a project, but then the devs reply to your queries, or the reviewer sends in some comments, or the PM adds some more lines, or... [add yours]

They do have money, just not for the professionals who actually create those games for them 🙄

Hello!👋 I'm Laura, English > Italian translator and game localizer. I've been active in this field since 2011, first in-house at Nintendo and afterwards as a freelancer. Here's some of my work. Hit me up with your projects, I'll be available all summer! #PortfolioDay #TranslatorsInTheCredits

A bittersweet view on freelancing, in Italian. "Am I going anywhere?"

This is who runs this account.

Love the floating avatars!

Dear devs, "Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career." CHOOSE ITALIAN FOR YOUR GAME! 🇮🇹

PS - Yes, they are all still with me and in good conditions after 3+ international moves.

Over the years I would go back and read past entries, sometimes to look for advice or to observe progress. I still recall specific writing sessions where, once over, I could finally muster the courage to do something.
Maybe I should start again... 2/2
