    Two Japan-exclusive Mega Man Battle Network spinoffs games get fan-made English localizations

    I'm speaking from a place of knowing how the industry actually works rather than blindly believing fear mongering from right winger twitter chuds who do nothing but stir controversy because they have nothing better to do, or thinking that translation between languages is really as simple as...

    Two Japan-exclusive Mega Man Battle Network spinoffs games get fan-made English localizations

    That would be far less efficient and far more work to fix a machine translation than to translate it from scratch. Companies are already doing that and it leads to worse products.

    Two Japan-exclusive Mega Man Battle Network spinoffs games get fan-made English localizations

    Localization is just a term that makes it easier to understand what the purpose of translation is. All translation is inherently localization because translating from one language to another necessitates changing the way things are spoken about and described to make sense in a completely...

    Dan Houser's Absurd Ventures to launch an audio fiction series set in their upcoming game's universe

    Not sure why you're responding to me with that.

    Dan Houser's Absurd Ventures to launch an audio fiction series set in their upcoming game's universe

    A comic would have been cheaper than an audio drama series with famous actors. Audio dramas have been around since basically the advent of radio, and they're still quite common, just not in the USA. They're a pretty unique experience that you can't get anywhere else.

    Developer Larian Studios will not be involved with future Baldur's Gate games

    They say Wizards didn't do it specifically, nothing about Hasbro having their hands clean. Wouldn't be surprised if they broke off the partnership because everyone they worked with at Wizards got fired by Hasbro.

    PS2 emulator AetherSX2 removed from Google Play Store

    It's a project that shouldn't have been done in the first place, when they only did it for attention. 🤷 Tried to posit itself as an actual fan translation, tricking a lot of people into thinking the actual fan translation project was complete.

    PS2 emulator AetherSX2 removed from Google Play Store

    People were mad at the Germs patch because it was a translation of a fan translation by someone with no knowledge of Japanese to account for accuracy, and there's already an English translation project in the works by people who actually know Japanese.

    Emulation Project Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past | 3DS/Citra HD Textures

    Made an addendum to this texture pack. Remade both font maps, and replaced upscaled character icons with their official artwork. Doesn't replace anything else.

    Sony lays off around 900 PlayStation employees; and reportedly cancels live-service 'Twisted Metal' game

    it's not going to hurt the company as a whole at all. it's just regular people getting fucked over by the execs who'll still make millions while their employees struggle to pay rent. This is just another scheme to attempt to make ~line go up~ because infinite profitability is the goal of all...

    "Pokemon Presents" announced for February 27th, 2024

    Perspective on N's hat and face is entirely wrong for a 3D model. Ghetsis's colors and face are entirely wrong too, looking like a draw-over of Cyrus. Ghetsis's eyebrows have always touched his eyelids, and his eye shape is completely different. (Example from Pokemon Masters)

    "The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap" decomp reaches 100% completion

    You said RE3 and REVC which looked like the acronyms for Resident Evil 3 and Resident Evil Code Veronica. My mistake.

    "The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap" decomp reaches 100% completion

    The difference between this and that is those were fan games being made with assets from Capcom. Fan games are entirely separate from hacks and decomps. If those were *mods* to RE2/3 remakes, it'd be more of a grey area, but those were not mods.

    First images for the "Fallout" series for Amazon Prime unveiled

    The... origin of Vault Boy? Vault Boy is an in-universe propaganda cartoon character, why would an origin matter?

    Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard has been finalized

    Another buyout from a big company that'll just cancel a bunch of in-development projects and close down studios. Activision did it to other companies, and Microsoft will do it to Activision. Just the next chain in a cycle of monopolistic corporations buying up all the competition and killing off...
