Haurchefant's localization confuses players

[Chasely]

Yeah. I wish the localization team would stop taking so many licences with the characters. that's why the english dialogue rarely matches up with anything the characters are doing.

Nor does it match the JP version's story, I have to run to JP friends to understand some of the stuff that "localization" likes to change, such as Keeper of the Lake dialogues.

And then there's the super annoying fact that they act too liberal with changing the character's personalities.. such as the latest one in 3.1, it's like listening to a completely different person between the 2 versions.

Ambiguity and the none-linear translation is fine, but to end up having completely different understanding of the story is not.

What? Who? Is Pirate Guy different in the land of the rising sun?

Just off the top of my head without rewatching the cutscenes

Spoilered for obvious reasons

Krile's, Thancred, all of Alphinaud's reactions, one of the people taking refuge, there's literally a 15secs JP line that got translated to a "thank you" and Matoya's attitude

3.1's changes to that returning character broke my heart.
