@Kirb_Star There's nothing wrong with wanting a translation but there's a disturbing number of people that think theyre OWED a translation IMMEDIATELY from a guy still working full time to release part 5 of like 8 of his literal dream game. *Those* people are definitionally entitled.

If you consider Latam fans asking for a translation to their native tongue as 'entitled', unfollow me now.

@IsadoraGameOver Toby Fox didnt do shit. As usual UTDR fans cant read. He just said he doesnt have the time nor experience to personally work with translators for an official translation, given he's currently still working on finishing DR. Morons on twitter (ironically) misinterpreted that.

@megamega171 @Gracosef2 @IamVistrOk @Hikarix_art @RyDawgE_ So a case of localization toning things down and making the story more serious versus the common opposite with English localizations getting inundated in references and personal politics not originally present in the scripts. Funny, that.

@JDespera @Gracosef2 @IamVistrOk @Hikarix_art @RyDawgE_ I meant that they themselves put a lot of unnecessary meme shit in their script. Genshin is the outlier as far as parity goes, chinese trailblazer cannot stop being le quirky chungus. The english and jp script drastically toned it down

@Devilshadow7211 Ive seen whispers that a mistranslation of his apology stated he "did not care about translating to spanish, etc" but, ironically, since I dont know the language I cant actually vet that claim. *Something* made some people think he views Latam TL as unimportant.

@megamega171 @Gracosef2 @IamVistrOk @Hikarix_art @RyDawgE_ Getting off topic kind of but isnt HSR a mihoyo game, which is a Chinese company? Wouldnt the Chinese TL be the defacto script or is there nuance here Im missing.

@JDespera @Gracosef2 @IamVistrOk @Hikarix_art @RyDawgE_ From what I understand chinese TLs suffers immensely from just putting random shit. Even their own stuff is like that, my chinese friend had to change language in hsr and zzz. Told me it was unbearable

Much smaller indie studios also were willing to trust localization teams to handle everything. Not the same. Its reasonable to be disappointed that there's no official translation, but attacking an artist because they want to ensure there's quality control is just stupid.

JB@gongui_jb

@JDespera @Trebedo Much smaller indie studios did what Toby didn't, so lack of resources is no excuse.

Toby Fox being busy working on DR is still the common root here. DR narrative is also at least loosely based on UT so similar focus on accurate localization would be desired by the creator.

Frost@petelatenesaden

@JDespera @Trebedo What about Undertale????

Johnny Despera@JDespera·1d

@Trebedo Your enemy also isnt the indie dev with a small team actively working on a game with a decade-plus long development cycle with an currently incomplete narrative that requires careful translation to avoid inconsistencies and plot-central inaccuracies.

@Gracosef2 @JDespera @IamVistrOk @Hikarix_art @RyDawgE_ one example is genshin, 90% of fandom arguments are because the english translation team just excludes full sentences randomly, and no one finds out until 4 months later when the one guy that knows chinese and english decides to log onto twitter again

@Gracosef2 @IamVistrOk @Hikarix_art @RyDawgE_ And as an indie creator with a small team and his own life to live, I for one respect his and any other creator's right to want to quality control their work. Does it suck to not have an official translation? Sure, but he's not racist nazi because of it as many seem to suggest.

Johnny Despera@JDespera·1d

@Gracosef2 @IamVistrOk @Hikarix_art @RyDawgE_ Perhaps Latam localization teams are better about this (heaven knows I often see them used as counterexamples in bad english localization discussion), but there's still no reasonable way for Toby Fox to vet the final product himself, which is what he wants to do as the creator.

English

Johnny Despera@JDespera·1d

@Gracosef2 @IamVistrOk @Hikarix_art @RyDawgE_ He will in fact have no way of knowing if good work was done until the community recieves the finished product and finds any inaccuracies or inconsistencies, at which point the damage is done. Hundreds of professional localizations have equally been terrible.

@Tome_demasiado @wandydoodles Long as you got the point, the words dont matter. Point is that it is almost unquestionably noelle-related.

@JDespera @wandydoodles No, words mean things. No matter how similar the motif may sound, it's not lost girl, it's not similar enough to say it's the same motif, and as I said I think it's quite important the fact that it is NOT lost girl

Ppl say it's not lost girl and it just sounds similar and like yeah but come on are we really gonna act like the character with deer antlers which you fight in a christmas setting behind a door with the code 1225 is given a music that "accidentally" sounds similar to lost girl

maybe the instrumentation is throwing people off?? here's the lost girl melody unchanged using black knife's synth I don't know but I'll stop posting about this now lol

@Tome_demasiado @wandydoodles Thats what people mean when they say it's lost girl. It's obviously not the exact same melody note for note, but the difference between them is like, two notes. Its easier to say "it's lost girl" than say "it's structurally similar to lost girl and thus related to noelle"

@wandydoodles It's just not the list girl melody, I'm a 100% Dess Knight believer but that melody is not lost girl. If I can throw my theory in I'd say the song is meant to RESEMBLE lost girl, but is instead a twisted corrupted version of it, like the knight is a corrupted version of dess

@i4kugisaki @anongoat360 @Igneo42 @saturniines That shit happens with basically every japanese to english localization from big companies. Toby is a perfectionist about the translations. It's an arguably negative trait but yall are wild for thinking you have any right to shittalk how an artist wishes to portray their vision.

@FdGraber The more generous interpretation is that he's happy fans can enjoy his work in some fashion thanks to fan translations while he tries to actually finish his (literal) dream game within his lifetime.

English

TheGraberFD@FdGraber·3d

Es muy cómodo decir que "te hacen feliz" las traducciones de fans porque no tienen la carga de ser perfectas. Es admitir que prefieres que la comunidad trabaje gratis a contratar un equipo profesional que adapte tu visión. La comunidad latina merece más que esto...

Cartoons On The Moon@CartoonsOTMoon

Toby Fox acaba de lanzar un comunicado para latinoamérica: ● Confirmó que Undertale y Deltarune NO tendrán traducción al español ni portugués porque no puede supervisar una traducción que encaje con su visión original. No por "odio a esos países". ● Se disculpó por su silencio, aclarando que nunca quiso ignorar a nadie.
