As Ferne explained, absolutely nothing is actually left out, he just condensed what Midgarsormr was saying based on rules he'd come up with for how Dragons talk long before even 1.0 launched, so this isn't the localization team "Completely deleting entire plot points", nor are they changing the intent of what's being said.

tl;dr, go read Fernelhawe's post and stop claiming we're being left out of important plot info just because we don't speak japanese.
I read his post and I don't agree simply because the EN script purposely obfuscates or omits things which should be pretty obvious. It's not at all obvious that Midgardsormr isn't an enemy. He doesn't bother to mention that he removed your Blessing of Light because you're being tested. He literally tells you he's going to kill you in one line which is entirely different in JP. He forgets to tell you that he's pals with Hydaelyn and not trying to kill you right after. The entire conversation sounds like he's toying with you because he's the big dragon and you're a tiny mortal, because the entirety of concept of the humans committing grave sins is completely omitted and so the idea that you're being tested is left out and it's just the big dragon trolling you. No, the script is a bad one and you should find a better white knight argument than 'hurr durr just learn japanese you weeaboo' because it has nothing to do with what I'm talking about.
