At the end of the day, a lot of Americans are still racist, especially the crowd that claims otherwise the loudest. They cannot stand the yucky stuff from the creepy oriental land and have to purge it with all their might.
You, anon, is probably racist as well, maybe just not in the same direction as them. Why deny that racism affects vidya?

Why do localizers learn japanese and translate their games if they hate japanese culture so much?

They don't.

You have to know what the original script is it to rewrite it

Google Translate, DeepL, and ChatGPT are more than enough for that
But if we're being serious, these people may have had genuine interest in otaku stuff early on, but grew to despise themselves for being weirdos in the eyes of others, and now their repressed anger is being directed at Japan itself
That's just one theory though

It is one’s moral DUTY to be racist against a “culture” that normalizes pedophilia and incest.

Bugmen want to stop anti-Asian racism? They need to stop being creepy perverts who have kids and incest on the brain 24/7.

Kill all localizers
Localizers are all evil subhuman scum, changing even one word from the original text always makes the result unreadable trash that has 0% in common with the original text. Localization should never be done, the only true form of translation is raw MTL output where no disgusting human being has had the chance to """improve""" it by making changes.
I'm not interested in whatever retarded fanfiction the subhuman localizer vomited out, I want the original puns, idioms, references, sentence structure and grammar untouched. I play Japanese games for their culture, not American politics, zoomerspeak and retarded memes.

>>716329735
because they want to correct it to fit their worldview. op is correct, they're racist as all fuck but it's only ok when they do it

>>716329735
You're either a localizer because you love the thing or want it changed. And because most modern localizers are lefties, that means it's usually the latter. The best translators aren't working localizing games, they're working as business mediators translating documents/emails between companies

>>716339734
Then consider learning Japanese and playing it in Japanese retard.
Like a lot of Japanese is wordplay that isn't even translatable.
Do you really want an NPC to try to tell a joke and all they say is "Television opaque director"

>>716329735
This. Also, why do people that absolutely hate Jap culture play Jap games at all?

>>716340151
Also this. Even if you were initially passionate about Japan, you can easily fall into despair upon realizing that translating games is a job of relatively low prestige
>>716340487
I want the bride line from the OP to be included in the translation, for one

>>716340618
>I want the bride line from the OP to be included in the translation, for one
The top one in the OP isn't even good. It's a 1:1 translation except they removed the part where it says she can't get married anymore. Which they removed because the west doesn't find that tasteful.

She's MY wife

>>716340487
hell yeah nigga, that's why I play jap games

>>716335295
The Epstein recordings are actually just Monogatari episodes that he invited all his friends like Trump over to watch.

>>716334160
Because we're not in the business of hating ourselves. We have to hate others in order to convince ourselves of our moral righteousness and so that we do not have to confront our flaws.
In other words, we are the pot trying to avoid even acknowledging the existence of the kettle.

>>716341279
Even the hardest aspects of a culture can be understood with time. Bad translations, however, remain bad forever.

>>716329453 (OP)
And then one day, for no reason at all, localizers got replaced by machines.

>>716339734
based, but sentence structure and occasionally grammar are going to be necessities realistically. Unfortunately pretty much every localizer never just stops at necessities.
>>716341034
>It's a 1:1 translation except they cut out an entire line and misrepresented the line by changing the situation from being the worst to the person she is talking to being the worst
Are you trolling or illiterate? Can never be to sure these days.

>>716342056
What do you want me to say? They removed a line that changes nothing in the story because it's a joke about how a young womans only purpose in life is to remain pure for marriage.

>>716342205
Why cut it if it changes nothing?

>>716329453 (OP)
So when again is AI going to replace these faggots and give us authentic translations?
I hope soon ... I don't want to learn Kanjis just for vidya and random manga :(

oh your trolling, carry on

>>716342346

I geniunely want to know how they ended up like that and why aren't people who actually like Japanese culture and media the ones localising?

>>716342657
It's a thankless job at the end of the day

>>716330019
No you don't, just make it up.

>>716342657
Because it's all nepo hires. Good translators aren't in the business of translating niche video games for pennies. The same thing with voice actors it's why you see the same names everywhere.

>>716342657
Because you would have to overturn how the entire industry operates to do so. No single individual can do anything about it and because of that no single individual that wants to do better even tries to become a localizer or if they do they quickly leave once they realize that even if they do a good translation once they send it off to an editor its getting fucked up either way.

>>716329735
>Siwwy widdle Asian people, your morals and culture are all wrong :D
>Let me tell you what's okay and what's not, mmhmm?
Plus, you have to sort of be retarded and poor to even consider "localization" as a job, especially now in the age of AI scans, so it makes in a way why localizations are so consistently off-tone/leftist/dogshit.

No, I will never forgive Treehouse for butchering Fates, and I want my headpatting back. Yes, I am still seething after all these years. Fuck you.

Punch trannylators. Roundhouse kick a trannylator.

>>716329735
They want to make sure it doesn't spread

here's how you stop them: don't buy the game if these clowns are involved.

>>716347227
I've seen plenty of slop on the indie marketplace on amazon.
They can easily put out books.

>>716329453 (OP)
I agree in practice because the common rendering of that line is up there with
>it can't be helped
in terms of how repetitive and trite it sounds.
I don't think it needs to be censored or removed, but troonslators have really got to start reading English literature and making connections between some of these shitty, bland, repeated Japanese phrases and actual quality native English approaches to how someone would actually express similar sentiment.

If people who buy video games are racist, then companies should pander to racists to boost their sales.

>>716348217
This
If you went with raw translations of this stuff, scripts would end up wooden as shit. That's just how it is.
There's problems with taking things too far, but Japanese as a language is not pleasant when directly translated. It follows sensibilities and conventions that are just not entertaining to listen to otherwise.

If your'e so smart then localize this!

>>716348662
Can probably invent a new word or something

Didn't japan just elect a party that wants to remove all foreigners, even ones who have lived there for years? Didn't several japan review sites trash e33 just because it was western? Why exactly is the weeb victim mentality so prevalent here? You faggots even melt down and shit your pants every year a Japanese game doesnt win game of the year citing "anti-japanese bias" despite Japanese games winning it several times before.

>>716336450
Felix isn't emo.
He's a cynic. Disillusioned. He's in a place aggrandizing the things that ruined his family, every time he hears someone talk about the glory of combat and war, legacy of bloodlines, duty to a nation, he sees someone drowning in the kool-aid.

>>716335565
Anon it's like that everywhere. Go to any Euro city and just look around.

>>716342382
Once you get over the initial hurdles like grammar and clauses, and understand stroke order or radicals enough to easily lookup whatever kanji you don't recognize, it's not too bad. I'm still a total scrub but it's been very very much smoother compared to a month ago. I'd recommend to learn it, it's quite fun to try to piece it all together and remember something from before and not even have to look it up.
>>716343404
Everything I've seen about the original fates still looks like liquid shit, even the original in that pic is boring as sin. I don't why people got so up in arms about this when the best way to play is to skip all the cutscenes, unless it involved Nyx, and spare yourself the time.

I guarantee you the exact opposite. Pedophiles famously hate lolicon and try to ban it at every opportunity. You can (and many have) purposefully fudged the dark numbers in Japan's sexual assault statistics while just refusing to incorporate the well estimated dark figures of the US and it still doesn't come close. America fucks kids at 30x the rate Japan does. THE RATE so don't be a nigger and @me with your negroidic inability to understand per capita. The West is projecting. Your God failed you.

Hahahaha, western cope is reaching critical levels. Whites KNOW Jesus fucked little boys and everyone blessed by the God of Abraham is a kidfucker. They can't cope with God's chosen people beating them like an abused spouse at literally every turn while Asia beats the shit out of them. Tell me christcuck, does this look more like a Shinto shrine to the Amatsukami or a Jewish synagogue to your foreskin eating saturn diety?

She has no ass. Hips are average as well. That's your brain on off model goon crap

>>716347227
This is correct.

What happened is that a certain clique of ideologically uniform, mostly upper middle class, sexually deviant, generally affluent theater kids took over essentially every creative genre and killed them, one by one, from sci-fi to fantasy to game writing to genre television.

Because everything they churned out was shit, they drew the conclusion you saw manifest earlier this year with Elio bombing: it isn't because our work is shit, it's because you hate anything original. So they then moved into established properties and proceeded to -- you guessed it -- kill them too, from Star Wars to Star Trek to Warhammer to everything else.

Now, this same clique are taking over translation of Japanese media which are, inexplicably, selling like hotcakes by providing wish fulfillment, icky power fantasies, blatant otaku pandering, self-insert shit, gross things like harems and fanservice, reactionary themes, and everything else the clique has been telling us no one actually wants.

Every one of these threads is full of mental illness that only validates these extremist behavior.
They are LOCALIZATION TEAMS, it's their literal job to adapt material not to simply translate it. It's what companies hire them to do.

I disagree. I think it's important to maintain the integrity of a culture when exposing it to another, regardless of how objectionable it is.
If I played a game somehow made by Aztecs, I want the human sacrifice and bloody rituals portrayed as a normal part of the world on par with how we treat our holidays. If I played a game somehow made by the Romans, I want to experience the feeling of cultural superiority over the barbarian tribes as second nature within the world. If I play a game made by modern Americans, I want it to reflect modern American culture, with all the guns and gay shit that entails. And if I play a game made by Japan... I fully expect the pedophilia and other odd things. I enjoy experiencing cultural influences through media, and I want to experience them at least somewhat authentically.
