@Coffy_Cat @xin_zie5216 @gunga_utdr I'm sorry to hear that. It's sadly ironic that they behave like this for a game like Undertale, of all games.
English

@Staralus @xin_zie5216 @gunga_utdr I'm not surprised. As a Mexican born in America, neither the whites or the Latinos have ever accepted me. This is just more of the same. But yeah, it was pretty disappointing to see nothing has changed.
English

@NapstaEjecutivo @Srlugardo28 @toxoplasmosisis @gunga_utdr They're "making fun" of the situation by making very real negative review bombings and flooding the community with hate. Other languages don't do this because they don't feel entitled to a translation, unlike the latam community.
English

@Staralus @Srlugardo28 @toxoplasmosisis @gunga_utdr I have NEVER seen someone from the Spanish side of the fandom say that Toby is lazy or bad at his job. They're just making fun of this situation, because it would be so easy to let all of the other fan translators of other languages to take part on this.
English

@Bryan_thekid @PomidorDark @RakinMinhaz @gunga_utdr You're entitled and you argue in bad faith. You should stop having such parasocial relationships on the internet and actually start caring about serious issues.
Buona fortuna con la tua caccia alle streghe, magari se piangi più forte, ti ascolteranno.
English

@Staralus @PomidorDark @RakinMinhaz @gunga_utdr Keep settling for crumbs, bro. Just get out of our way for asking for something so basic.
Es momento que las empresas y autores empiecen a sentir el poder mediatico de la tercera lengua más usada en internet.

@Coffy_Cat @xin_zie5216 @gunga_utdr Classic human behavior. If you don't conform, we'll restrict our special circle even further, even if you're like us.
English

@Staralus @xin_zie5216 @gunga_utdr They keep screeching racism while literally being the only racists in the discussion. All they can say is gringo. I even pointed out I'm not white, but Latino, and they went straight to "you're the wrong type of Latino." Shameless.
English

@Bryan_thekid @PomidorDark @RakinMinhaz @gunga_utdr Guidelines aren't enough for Toby. He nitpicks every word. Maybe you're used to shitty translations made by teams of "professionals" in gaming but I'd rather Toby don't do that, as he also implied.
English

@PomidorDark @Staralus @RakinMinhaz @gunga_utdr If he truly cared about the vision and intention of his work, he would make it more accessible, as I said, by hiring an English/Spanish translation team and giving them the appropriate guidelines. He's not going to study all the languages for a simple translation.
English

@Bryan_thekid @PomidorDark @RakinMinhaz @gunga_utdr You don't get it do you? You expect a 1:1 translation. He doesn't do that. He makes an adaptation by building it from the ground up, because he actually studied japanese. He wrote a whole book about that process for christ's sake. Are you in bad faith or you just don't read?
English

@Staralus @PomidorDark @RakinMinhaz @gunga_utdr Hahaha, what on earth are you talking about? The guy ruined his own joke; he literally contradicted his pathetic excuse about perfectionism and His vision. People will surely continue to find more of this as the days go by; it will remain just an excuse.
English

@TheKiol @solleron_zip @Ben561391568688 @DRN_003 So you're just complaining for the sake of it? I'm done here
English

@Staralus @solleron_zip @Ben561391568688 @DRN_003 Thats because he cant work in a team my point from the beggining
English

There's a whole 271 page long book about how Undertale was translated into japanese and how meticulous that process was and what sacrifices were made in said process
And you really expect that perfectionist guy to want to translate the game into the language he doesn't know

@TheKiol @solleron_zip @Ben561391568688 @DRN_003 Except that's not how Toby works for the narrative parts of his games.
English

@Nativo2828_YT @Dinosaurnumber1 @gunga_utdr Yeah? I hope you don't expect Toby to hire translators for a language he didn't study. Because that means giving them all the power to adapt the meanings of the words without him being able to verify. That's what I meant with my comment.
English

@TheKiol @solleron_zip @Ben561391568688 @DRN_003 Even if they do, he can't verify that they actually put the word he wanted, because he wouldn't know the language. He would have to trust the translators and give up control without being able to verify fully. At that point you should just use fan translations.
English

@Staralus @solleron_zip @Ben561391568688 @DRN_003 You dont need to tell them what Word you tell them exactly what i said. You coild5be even less specific. Give him a weird quirk. This is common in japanese dubs and i know this without knowing japanese. Languages have a lot in common
English

@Coffy_Cat @gunga_utdr That's the important distinction. It's okay to be frustrated or sad that there isn't a translation, but it's not okay to get angry at Toby and blame him for everything. I'm italian and I know that we will never get even a fraction of a chance to get an official translation.
English

@Staralus @gunga_utdr Like, I complain about things all the time. And instead of being angry at me, people agree with me. Because it's the lament of a fan, not the screeching of a Karen.
English

@xin_zie5216 @Coffy_Cat @gunga_utdr I must add that people on the internet also tend to be more vicious and lacking of empathy, where painting yourself as a victim is more important than anything going on. It's self sabotaging behavior, and cheapens actual real issues sadly.
English

@Staralus @Coffy_Cat @gunga_utdr The problem is that it started with the "determination symphony tour" that didn't have concerts in Latin America, but Toby wasn't involved→blamed him→didn't comprehend his statement→misinformation→hate for the sake of hating.
English

@TheKiol @solleron_zip @Ben561391568688 @DRN_003 He couldn't because he didn't study spanish. He could with japanese translators because he actually studied japanese. How can you know if a word is not fitting if you don't know the language? He's a perfectionist, he needs to study and know for himself
English

@Staralus @solleron_zip @Ben561391568688 @DRN_003 Yeah exactly he would tell the localizing do it wrong
English

@Coffy_Cat @gunga_utdr Yeah the response is wild. I wonder how do you think the latam community should've answered? Or if they should've complained at all in the first place?
English

@Staralus @gunga_utdr Well, like I said. This is just the last straw. As for this situation, it's not the seriousness of the situation, but the response, and what that says about how our culture has changed. The culture I was proud of doesn't really exist anymore.
English

@TheKiol @solleron_zip @Ben561391568688 @DRN_003 You misunderstood. It's not a problem, it's how he meant it to be. Some japanese at the time thought it was wrong, but it was just how Toby wanted it to be.
English

@Staralus @solleron_zip @Ben561391568688 @DRN_003 You tell him the pronouns should be wrong dumbass. You act like this is an unsovled problem
English

@Coffy_Cat @gunga_utdr Yeah but I'm sure that there are way more serious issues happening in the latino community, than Toby Fox. Personal lineage and family should be the most important thing anyway, over a slight against people who you probably will never meet anyway.
English

@Staralus @gunga_utdr This is the last straw of many things that have happened over the last decade, but I no longer feel pride in being Latina or Hispana anymore. Only my personal lineage.
English

@Coffy_Cat @gunga_utdr I've been talking with some of them today and they're genuinely like this. It's so fucking stupid lmao. They really feel slighted by Toby Fox
English

@Staralus @gunga_utdr see how we're his biggest fans and immediately translate the game for us right?"
