@LevantineR1 @NightOSummer @Valeria48621912 @NarniaViviendo @maikrisyay If anything, I wish there could be translations for all languages so that everyone can enjoy the art. But since that can't realistically be done, there's going to be *a* line drawn in the sand, and I feel like "the two languages the artist is fluent in" is a pretty valid one

@LazyNick5 realising this can come across as victimising myself- I meant for both sides. Don't be fucking racist towards LATAM folks, but don't shut down the opinion of other non-English-primary speaking countries (or even English speakers tbh). Don't be dicks to each other

@LazyNick5 I'm just sad at the amount of hatred and xenophobia this gives to people. I can sympathise with language barriers, I acknowledge that English/Japanese is a barrier, even if I believe Toby doesn't owe us anything. But lord, the ease at which we'll just throw insults at each other

The argument of this group of ppl online is "there's more spanish speakers so WE should get a translation who gaf about the rest". If we look at steam appreciations, China, Russia, w. Europe, latam, etc we can see that ALL love and create equally bc we ALL love the same game

and fuck all the people going "but MY specific country should have a translation because WE are the biggest fans" acting like this isn't a world-wide loved games with immense fandoms everywhere. Ppl who say that shit don't actually care about accessibility just ego and wtv

@LazyNick5 it's why I'm glad he mentionned fan translations because even if they're not perfect (spoilers: even an official one overseen by Toby himself wouldn't be), they allow more people to interact, and I just think that's neat idk, people be quick on hatin'

@LazyNick5 I've been thrown eurocentrism accusation when sibling, if you don't speak English/Japanese, we are literally all in the same boat lol. I would love to see a French translation myself, but I also don't want Toby to waste time on it when he can do so much more instead

@FloTiretDuBas_ J'oublie que quand t'es riche, t'a plus le droit de te sentir impliqué directement dans l'écriture de ton oeuvre et que tu est légalement obligé de la traduire par autrui un nombre jugé acceptable de langue, ou sinon tu est moralement dans le tord /j

Mon avis sur la situation Toby Fox c'est que ok c'est pas ouf et ça pourrait être mieux géré de sa part, mais la grande partie de ce qu'il lui est reproché est même pas de son fait (merch et concert). Et pour le reste, on dirait qu'il est devenu la pire personne au monde. Dosez.

@rasciii @ultragayUmbrage and then, what language to include? Do we stop at English+Spanish+potential native language? Why not iinclude Arabic and Chinese? Should all of them? there's going to be a line drawn in the sand that will piss off *a* community at some point regardless how you view it

@rasciii @ultragayUmbrage I'm not trying to be a smart-ass I swear, I'm trying to grasp the concept here A twitter comic artist can be popular. Everybody has acess to Google Translate. Should they be held to that standard? Should OFF, the game that inspired UT? I don't see anybody complain about it

@rasciii @ultragayUmbrage Not trying to be bad faith on purpose, so sorry if I came across. But I do genuinely feel like if you have that standard for one, you should have that standard for all, which I don't think anybody does

@1Sir_Drake @ultragayUmbrage this is in such bad faith oml. yes in my opinion as someone whose life was changed by utdr i think it’s bad to lock people out of smth like that when 1. you 100% have the resources for it 2. you have an incredibly wide audience 3. you justify it with misplaced insecurities

@rasciii @ultragayUmbrage "bad" would imply some kind of moral failing on Toby's part to me, which it really isn't. Or else again, every artist on this planet is morally failing because they tend to make their piece in only one language

@1Sir_Drake @ultragayUmbrage it is bad when millions of people cannot enjoy your work because you’re insecure and cannot trust industry veterans with decades of experience who have much less of a chance to mess up and would fix it way faster because they’d have more resources

@rasciii @ultragayUmbrage reminds me a bit of how Toby is so specific and cagey around what can be merch or not, and there were people thinking they were entitled to get plushies. Obviously, here it's a bit more complex and justified, but idk, I guess I just don't think Toby owes anybody like that

@rasciii @ultragayUmbrage idk, overall, I think people tend to forget Toby's an artist and treat him like this big CEO, like he's right next with Miyamoto or whatever, and forgets he has an artistic vision. It's fair to be frustrated by it, but I don't think it is to say it's bad or harmful

@rasciii @ultragayUmbrage fans are going to make translations no matter what, if you're not going to provide yourself, the least you can do is mention that you're cool with them and recommend them, and he did

@rasciii @ultragayUmbrage Because then you don't have any connection whatsoever with that fan. You're not involved at all with the process, it's outside your control. You can talk with the translators for sure, but ultimately, you kinda have to blind-trust them if you do involve yourself

@1Sir_Drake @NarniaViviendo @maikrisyay No seas mentiroso e hipócrita, cariño. Claro. Ahora sí "sientes tristeza" y "es una pena" porque la discusión se volvió un escándalo que llegó a tu pequeña burbuja y eso ya es una molestia, ¿Pero el resto del año? Seguirás pensando que hispanoamérica es México y ya :p

@Valeria48621912 @NarniaViviendo @maikrisyay I mean, kinda. I don't think Toby is entitled to give translations to any language whatsoever, and any he does is because he feels like it/comfortable with it Shit, I'm French, I could complain, but I don't because I don't think it's fair on Toby and his artistic integrity

@NightOSummer @NarniaViviendo @maikrisyay And that's a sad reality that I feel sorry for you guys. But that's getting out the scope of this specific debacle, which is UTDR and Toby. And more than that, I'm sad for you not because "you have the right to complain, you're 2nd most spoken", but just because it's a shame

@1Sir_Drake @NarniaViviendo @maikrisyay Europa no comparte el mismo idioma, y aún así ha tenido un chingo de suerte a la hora de recibir localizaciones ¿El continente americano, por otro lado? Con suerte, durante los 2000 juegos llegaban en inglés y eso porque los yankis existen :v
