Translating is a simple job, you take something and you adapt it to the other language while keeping its original meaning, not writing fucking fanfiction like the so called ""localizers"".

no, translation is complicated especially when you are a retarded chatbot, which does not actually understand what the text is actually about, can't identify names etc.

It's fine as long as they're upfront about it. What matters to me as a consumer is transparency so I have the choice to avoid a product that doesn't align with my values. If the majority of people are happy to consume it, I'm not going to impose my will on society by arguing it shouldn't exist. By the same token, fuck you if you try to hide that shit and gaslight me into supporting something that goes against my own values.

Believe me or not: I am the developer of a popular and successful indie game which I will not name to avoid derailment. I had it localized into several languages including Japanese, and I made it a point to provide the localization team with the full English script in an autistically-formatted document which broke out every single line of dialogue in conversation blocks with full context notes. For example, two characters have this cryptic exchange about something the player is not clued into yet:
>Char A) "So then..."
>Char B) "...Yes."
You can translate this without context, but in a language like Japanese, the meaning is probably going to be lost. So in a column next to those lines, I had this:
>[implying something has happened which both characters are aware of]
>[confirming to Char A that it has happened]
The feedback from the localizers was that they had never received anything like this before and that it saved them an immense amount of time because they barely had to ask any questions. The end result was that the game had much more success in Japan than the average western indie game, with the localization being highly praised.

This structure was also helpful for the other languages, but Japanese got the most benefit. Ultimately, it was important to me for the localizations to be well done, and it took that extra effort for me as the author to presuppose that any line of dialogue could potentially be ambiguous and therefore needed clarification. For future projects, I also want to include an ESL script option that is still English but highly simplified, and I expect that sort of thing would be difficult to pull off well without my methodology.

Anyway the point of this whole post is that I could only ever expect an AI to handle this job as well as that localization team if I fed it the same expanded context document, which wouldn't save me any work, only money from not having to hire localizers. Since I'm not fluent enough in the output languages to know how good the results are, it would take extensive AB testing at a minimum to compare them, and even that can only be properly tested by using a wide array of LLM models to figure out which one does the best job, all of which is a cost unto itself.

The bottom line is that a machine translation is still just a machine translation; accuracy is only one of many considerations in the whole process, and LLMs don't address the others.

Localization isn't supposed to be subversive. What localizers call localizations are really just rewrites. They lie about what localization means to layman who don't know better.

You're forgetting the keypoint there: You were actually working with people who were giving a shit.
Not with your average westoid loocalizer who was more focused on shoehorning their fanfic to soothe their failed writer ego or to push an agenda or "fixing" the icky bits.
If my choice is to use AI or deal with >>714020780 >>714016892 people like this I'd rather deal with the machine.
There's also the fact you were autistic enough to micro-control how the translation were like, because you wanted it to be good, most devs won't give a shit about that as long as it is "good enough" too and chances are they will NEVER give it a look-see at the localized script nor supervise their work.
And again, you're going from English to the other Languages. Notice how 99% of the issues problems have with loocalizers are the ones translated to English which 99% of the times is where the people I mentioned are included.
In short, Americans are cancer. Is AI perfect? No, will likely never be, but that's how bad it is that people would rather take that instead.
Your case is an absolute freak case and in no way demonstrative of why things have reached this state.

Really they should just do English, Chinese and Japanese. If you cant speak one of those language's what are you even doing with yourself?

I don't give a shit about retards asking for their own special language having a translation, but every game should at least have a proper english version.
And no, and not a monolingual american. Yes, I am ESL.
Anonymous No.714036146 [Report]
In order to get a better translation than a current model AI, unless you are dealing with hyper technical, specifically dated, or dialectical language, you have to go to a PHD who dedicates their life to translating that language. You can't even imagine how much that would cost, and paying someone who just knows the two languages fluently will be lower quality by far, cost infinitely more, and take months. All you need is someone who can look over it and make sure that it isn't totally fucked or refused to translate something.
Translation is literally the single thing that these AI language models are best at, complaining about it is insane.

i don't think you're giving localizers enough credit, it's reasonable to want your game to make sense to people, i'd rather have games be localized then participate in globohomo slop. the issue is that localizing forces here tend to have a massive agenda as they try to enforce a particular set of values (that's usually extremely off-base; disney's raping of bluey in america is another good example of this sort of thing)

it has also just generally replaced search engines for me. the other day, i tried to use it in real time to get the menu for a restaurant i was talking about with my grandma while we were on the phone, but it wasn't able to load the website sadly (but it totally would have succeeded, and its neat i can just have it do that)

Rewrites don't achieve that. Because the writers have intent behind there writing, outrighting changing the meaning instead of finding equivalents just leads to inevitable confusion. Like how in Path of Radiance the romance between Ike and Elincia completely disappears in Radiant Dawn. Or The blessing of Light being conflated with the echo. Or Breath of The Wild changing the quest descriptions to remove Link's perspective. Or removing the lore that Pokemon and humans got married in Pokemon. Blah Blah Blah, none of these things make more sense. It's just ineptitude.

I think consistency's always gonna be the biggest problem with AI translations, considering how bad LLMs are at retaining information. Like if a game has a concept called "The Gate," the AI might obfuscate when characters are talking about The Gate, because it'll translate it as "the door" or "the fence" or whatever if it doesn't have context. A character may be called Alice, Arisu, and Elisa randomly. And those kinds of mistakes aren't ones that proofreaders can easily pick up on.

your alternatives, though, are:
a. make sure your writing isn't influenced by your region so it doesn't have to be modified much to be palatable to a global audience (ideally, your writing will stick ONLY to globohomo culture)
b. translate it directly, making a lot of dialogue awkward or unfamiliar, and the game less gamelike because of it

i'm not gonna sit here and say every localization done by nintendo is good, but it's an objectively better experience so long as you aren't autistically concerned about factuality of the lore or something (and it's fine if you are concerned about that, but it's not your group that makes your past time profitable)

this isn't (realistically) how you'd use it for localization, you wouldn't just throw it an entire english script and ask it to localize everything, you'd do it all piece by piece and probably multiple times worded in multiple ways to check out variations. it'd frankly be a very large amount of work.

>>714038847
i disagree, out of all the ways i see it used (and also the way that the creators are trying to use it), i think this is the best case use for it, most people try to use it as a replacement for work and THAT is where the real brainrot comes from, like people that use it for programming (though lets not kid ourselves that these people were ever writing good code to begin with...)
