Translations (JP to English)

Reinhart, why couldn't you be on Wutai :c

All I can give you is an internet high-fave (low-five, lalafel) and the appreciation of a humble Red Wizard!

I thank you, rainbow-colored subligar man, and you incredible powers of translation!

*sigh* I don't like the 99% thing one bit. It's less money you need, way too much ways to get your stuff repaired and from 1-100% you won't even feel a difference, turning dying (which should usually be avoided) into something that's not even a minor annoyance anymore. I thought the current system was good.

Oh well. I'll get used to it. :)

hahahha nice yoshsi!!! this is turning away from final craftasy to a actual final FANTASY. Yes i think repairs are good and needed do not scrap the system but holy crap how it is now you NEEDED to rank a craft. This needed to be easier for everyone. Now its fairly easy to repair and no stat weakness till 1%? thats awesome.

Plus repairs at all camps & crafters still needed for 100% in order to resell to others^^ Sounding great for sure :D Soooo much stuff in 1.19 lol can't believe how huge this patch is getting (even though was alrdy stated earlier by Yoshi the patch is going to be around 5x the size of 1.18 lol that's crazy awesome for only waiting 2 months!!!)

Thanks for all the work on the translations :)

Bless your heart, more people need to have your attitude.

I am in agreement with the repair and equipment degradation changes Yoshida-san relayed ^^

Thanks for the translations Reinheart ^.^

Really appreciate the great work you do for all of us :D

They may as well get rid of the repair system entirely if they're going to do this. It's like they're trying to make it irrelevant without getting rid of it.

Personally, I am SUPER excited about the repair changes. :D No longer will I have to wait around town or AFK trying to get my stuff repaired by crafters, yay! Did crafters really enjoy repairing THAT much? o.O You definitely aren't doing it for the money (as a lot of people simply offer the dark matter), and as someone who has repaired quite a few low level things for friends, it isn't a fun activity. In fact, it's annoying because you have to switch classes and mess with all the clunky menus (and it makes my 10 minute cooldown reset which is annoying if I'm repairing while doing leves with someone).

Now, you'll only need a crafter to repair if you want to save a little money or plan on selling the item (need 100% to sell or trade).

Hmmm ... don't want to read too much into this, but are they talking of adding G6 dark matter for r50+ equipment in 1.20 ? Hint to cap increase within next 6 months ?

What made you think that?

I wonder if we will be able to repair rings through NPC finally...

I certainly hope so. I never understood why the NPC wouldn't repair accessories other than to be annoying.

As someone who hates the current repair system I feel like I can live with the changes outlined in that post. IMO dying is a penalty enough because you didn't accomplish whatever you were trying to, but those changes will make it just a slap in the hands and I am willing to compromise to the point where I don't have to teleport to town and wait until I get repaired.

Bottomline: Don't rock the boat please! :D

With this they make the death penalty weak again.
I hope they rework the penalty a bit to make it strong again

Reinheart, I hope all went well in the hospital and you were able to take your kid home~

We need some of our other JP translators to step in when Rein is out taking care of business! Curious to know what Yoshi-p had to say. Help a brotha out...

I don't get this obsession with wanting a stiff penalty for death.

If the game is to be largely based on instanced content, as YP has said it will be, then death results in a large chunk of time lost.

If you wipe, you lose. That's it. Why does there need to be some additional salt in the wound on top of it?

These changes are great because the NPCs can make items functional, but only a crafter can make it sell-able. This is miles better for a wider audience than the system we had a year ago where most of your equipment would be useless after an hour of play.

SE could do it themselves...probably far far too much to ask though lol Seems when SE does translate stuff from the JP side, although correct, usually hours if not days late. Otherwise they don't seem to bother translating every single post like Rein does.

SE has to keep up some level of quality. Rein doesn't. He simply gets the translations out as fast as possible. And that's cool with me, but not cool if SE did it.

We still get the important posts translated, but not the "I played some Street Fighter 4 today www" fluff.

SE is lucky FFXIV doesn't have to be a real market economy, even with the changes outlined in suffers from a few market failures. The biggest one being asymmetrical information, but this one is just due to laziness on the buyers part, so he/she would never know what it cost to make since they don't craft and don't look it up. Its ok though its an mmo market, not a real one! But thanks for the translation again, I feel like i must stop by once a week and tell you how awesome you are for this!

Think he just made another mega-post, or added to one anyway. Should be interesting!

To help reinheart out the last message he hasn't translated has been translated by dev.

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...l=1#post337426

There has been a smaller post after it.

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...l=1#post337436

I'll start translating again from tomorrow, babies safely back home :) he finally got to see his older brother after 1 month :)

checking any posts that's not translated officially yet from yesterday/today and will post those if I can right now since I'm free right now.

This is regarding chocobo's speed everyone is wondering, we all know it's going to be faster than the PC, but between My Chocobo and Rental Chocobo; My Chocobo will be faster than the Rental Chocobo.

実際どのくらいだよ！と気になるところだと思います。
こちらは今、動画でご紹介しようと準備を進めていますのでもうしばらくお待ちください！
I understand you might say "How fast!?"
For this one we are getting ready to present a video showing this so please hang in there!

It felt unrelated to the rest of the post talking about job opportunities, but this statement piqued my interests.

Continuation regarding FPS

技術的には15fps自体を実装することは可能です。
Technically it's possible to implement 15fps

ただし、まずはパッチ1.19にて30fpsをお試しいただければと思います。
However, first we would like for you to try the 30fps in patch 1.19.

PCの環境は人それぞれ違いますので、フィードバックをいただきながら、
その上で、15fpsの実装検討を含め、快適な動作のために対応は継続して行っていきます。
PC's environment varies depending on the person, therefore we would like to receive feedbacks first then on top of that be able to look into releasing 15fps and continue to make other changes which may ease (make it more enjoyable) the play.

That one is regarding job positions available for FFXIV they didn't have a page for FFXIV staff job openings so although Yoshida has a plan to make renewal to that page with his message he asked the company's other division to have that page made with current job openings. I posted little bit in there after YoshiP posted that from the hospital and he responded to me, was happy to see it just few minutes ago lol (just turned on the PC when I started translating and didn't get through all the dev posts)

Even if I can't get in SE directly his comment made me happy :D

This one is regarding optimum level colors coming up with the UI change, JP people has both sides; people that likes it and people that don't like it at all. Here's YoshiP's response to Syn's comment.

そうですね、グローバルに展開しているMO/MMOでは共通言語くらいメジャーな仕様です。
他のゲームから乗り換えて頂いた際に「わかりやすさ」の面で、とても有効です。
例えばFPSのインターフェースが、すべて共通であるのと同じくらい、
グローバルでは普通の仕様だと思います。
Yes that is correct, for MO/MMO which are released globally this is a major feature just like having similar terms. When moving from another game it will be very useful for those people being able to understand it. For example, this is same as how FPS games interface are all similar, in a global environment it's something natural.

カラーの混在ですが、実機確認して吉田は気に入っていますが、
皆さんも1.19で実際に確認して頂き、その上でどうしても気になるようであれば、
フィードバック頂けたらと思います:)
Regarding this color variations, personally I tried it myself and I like it, therefore if you all can first try it out in 1.19 and after that if it still concerns you if you could please give a feedback would appreciate it :)

Haha, in the west they are called "diapers"

Reinhart, you need to work for them! You have the very rare talent of translation. Don't you live in Hawaii? Isn't there a gigantic Square office there? :)

All the best.

Nah used to live in Hawaii, moved there after moving from Japan. Now living with wife + 2 kids in California :) they got SE office here too, been trying out whenever job position was available for years got one job interview and test with them after trying but failed (can see why now) YoshiP's response to my comment yesterday made me smile so that's enough for me for wanting to join SE.

This one is regarding auto-mapping (first paragraph translated explains it)

This is regarding auto-mapping where areas you arrive for the first time will be blank, and gets filled in as you walk; right now we are currently looking into this and with the overall map changes we are planning to get this implemented.

ただし皆さんも仰っているように、エオルゼアにはアイアンハートというエオルゼア全図を完成させた人物が存在します。彼の足跡をたどることで地図が開けていくなど、世界設定についても破綻の無いよう対応を行いますのでご安心ください。
However some of you already know in Eorzea their is a person named Ironhart who completed the Eorzea's map so we will make it where it doesn't break the world settings and where your path will open his path.

もちろんアチーブメント機能とも連動し、初めてエリアに到着！とか、エリアのすべてを歩いた！とかの項目も用意して、冒険をしながら新たな道を歩いていくといったようなことが可能になるようにしていきます。
We will also make it interact with the achievement system and make achievements such as "Arrived to new area for first time!" or "Walked through every area" so it will add new accomplishments as you adventure.

どうぞご期待ください :cool:
Please look forward to it :cool:

Skipping this one: http://goo.gl/AFRfA
Just basically explains what the NA rep already posted about the new requirements to enter Totorak and DH 2-4 / 4-8 JP side didn't have a response for it :) the thread title is asking for Solo for Totorak but they are ok with 2-4 i guess :)

システムSE、SE、環境音の名称が何を指すのか簡単にご説明しますね。
Would like to explain simply what system SE, SE, and Environment means.

• システムSE → UI周りの操作音
  System SE > sound effects surrounding UI
• SE → アクションの音、攻撃の音など、環境音以外のSEすべて
  SE > Action sound, attack sound, anything other than environmental SE.
• 環境音 → 天候音
  Environment SE > weather sound effect

---

鳥の鳴き声や川のせせらぎ（噴水とかも）も環境音ですよね？
sound of bird or river flowing (including water fountain) is environment sound effect right?

---

っと、失礼しました。その通りです。
oops sorry about that, yes that is correct.

LitryQuis and Werdna also commented above regarding this also reading the comment from Masayoshi Souken on the interview I want to request for the following

現状、私たちに聞こえるサウンドがカメラ視点の音が聞こえる設定になっていますが、
それを、操作キャラクターの居る場所からの音を聞こえるようにして欲しいです。
Currently the sound we heard are from camera's location, but I would like to make it where you hear the sound from the actual character you are controlling.

８人でPTプレイをしていると、自分の後ろを走っているキャラクターの足音が一番でかく聞こえるのは
自分は現実感にかけると思うのです。
When you're in a 8 men party, hearing the foot steps on the furthest away character louder than your own is lacking reality

自分のキャラクター中心に音が聞こえたほうがモンスターの攻撃や位置も分かりやすいはずです。
If you can hear the sound from your characters stance it will make it easier to find out monsters location, or which direction the monster is attacking from.

衣擦れの音や足音まで複数用意して現実さを追求しているのは分かるのですが
キャラクター位置で発生している音を聞かないと全く臨場感が無いと思います。
I understand (this game has) cloth sound (like chain sound when wearing chain mail) or different foot step sounds (when running on metal or wood or rock) however if the sound isn't coming from the characters position it will lack the presence.

1．19では細かい所も多数修正されているので、是非サウンドの方もお願いいたします！
In 1.19 I know there are lots of specific adjustments, would also like if you could please look into the sound as well!

こちらの件は、担当者に確認してみますのでお待ちください。
I am checking this one with the person in charge so please hold on for more info

God, I really hate how they're taking a step back sometimes.

I don't get the whole appeal of auto-mapping... Is it that hard to imagine that our characters walk around with a world map? I just find it annoying that I'll now have to walk to places I don't give a rats ass about just for the sake of completion.
