Issue with the Japanese to English translation

[Verlyn]

If they have to artificially stretch it out because they have no control over text-boxes that explains a lot. So not only do they need an editor, they need an engine overhaul :P.
Also, that they're taking massive, totally unnecessary liberties with the translation figures too.

Not a fan.

I've done game translation before (on the translation side of things rather than the technical side, but I was in constant contact with the tech guys) and it's not a simple matter at all to change the coding to insert more text boxes. That's not to say that it can't be done, but it is a major undertaking. In my experience, most game translations opt to work with the space that is already there rather than try to alter the coding itself.
