Translations (JP to English)

[Rydin]

Reinheart... I hate to derail your thread and post something that is not a translation... I really do...
But as the only person I know who is fluent in both English and Japanese...

When SE releases updates and Dev posts in Japanese... Is it as confusing and easy to misinterpret as their English counterparts?
I swear every Yoshi P post has more different interpretations than the Bible.
I just want to know if the Japanese shares this vague subtext

For Example:
The sky is Blue.

But if SE said it... They would say:
The Sky appears to be Blue-ish right now

Someone would interpret that to mean the sky isn't blue, it just appears that way
And then someone else would infer that "right now" implies that the sky is not always blue
Yet another person would say that "Blue-ish" means it's not blue but something similar
Someone would flame that person, noting that Blue-ish is indeed a shade of blue
And mixed between all of these posts would be the dumbest GIFs and JPGs of Captain Picard or some cartoon character or someone from "My Name is Earl" followed by posters calling them idiots... followed by people asking if we need yet another thread on the color of the sky

I nominate this to be the best sequence of sentences ever posted on these forums. If I knew people wouldn't rage over it, I'd sig the entire thing right now. I tried very hard to avoid posting uselessly on this thread and contributing to the spam, but I sincerely apologize - I just enjoyed that post so much a simple Like would not suffice.

80? In the first day probably.

As for the server names he's not planning to add Japanese related legendary weapons orz... I wanted Masamune (or Excalibur)

What exactly do you mean by this? I might be recalling incorrectly but I believe both Masamune & Excalibur where in English FF games. If you mean in real life Masamune has Japanese history so I understand that but Excalibur is Great Britain related...

Excalibur will probably be used for sever name but he didn't want like Yoichi or Genji or Masamune for the server name, lemme dig that post up... reason why I put Japanese related legendary weapons

現時点だとGenji/Masamuneなどは、言語別ワールドの印象が強すぎる気がしています。
Yoichiは弊社の某人物の名前のローマ字読みにもなるので、
えーと、色々考えて避けようかなと
At current point names such as Genji or Masamune might leave a strong impression of language specific world. Yoichi is name name of CEO so after thinking wanted to avoid it

Most likely talking about the dude who's popping his head out in my sig... lol
Still possible but he's thinking of avoiding them.
