Translation Corner

[Betelgeuzah]

I hope there will be some interaction on the english forums.

Since the forums stabilized after the launch and the earthquake, our community reps have had quite a bit to say and I don't think we're being left to dark or not listened to. We do not talk to the developers, we talk to the community reps who gather our feedback and talk to the developers (who are probably not even aware of the English slang for different game-terms). That's just how it is going to be, and I doubt the Japanese forums are much different, most of the threads are being read by the representatives, not the developers.

We just got a comment from the reps saying they have asked the devs about various things we talk about. The developers won't talk in English, and that is for the better (because their English skills seem to be rather lackluster, and much would be lost in the context if they tried to go into specifics outside their native language).

Yoshi may come around and say "I listen, no problem, just wait please " in his J-English and that is fine. At least he is trying despite being well aware he's not very good at it. But if he tried to talk about something like Death Penalty things would go downhill very fast.

This is a very good thread, thank you for contributing Kaedan. I'd like to ask what do the JP's feel about Matsui's auto-attack response?
