QUOTE said:I would be willing to translate the game. I have extensive knowledge of Japanese. Find me someone that outputs/inputs the text and I'll do it. I'll translate the tutorials, stickers, and maybe also the story up until chapter 3 where you unlock the online wi-fi battle mode (stupid that you have to unlock it, I know.. maybe I'll upload my savegame later so you can try it)
I'm currently playing the game. The story-mode is kind of boring in that it's just a bunch of fetch-quests that lead you to the next battle, but the graphics are very nice and the battles are awesome (which is what it's all about, really). It has a very deep combat system which I think would appeal to a lot of people. This game got a really good score in famitsu (8/9/8/9 I think), and it definitely deserves it. I'll try to explain the battle system a little.
You have 2 arms, both which can hold up to 4 stickers. You build a deck of 24 stickers which you go into battle with. Each turn you can apply 1 sticker to each hand and then you can choose to attack once. The other arm can be used to block the opponents attack. The stickers range from defensive, to offensive, to special abilities that affect your opponent. Every sticker has one of 5 elements. Also, some stickers get more power if you use a lot of the same element. In short, lots of strategy.
I played this game in Japanese and it looked great. I would love to see a translation for this. It reminds me of those old Yuyu Hakusho games for the snes.
Now my actual Request is a menu and item translation for Phantasy Star Ø. If you liked phantasy star or like RPGs I would seriously recommend this game.
I played Phantasy star online for years and this just blew me away. I have been playing it in japanese for about 3 days and I am doing alright but after a while it became very difficult to tell all of my equipment apart and stuff because well I don't speak japanese. I couldn't care really about the story because story isn't Sega's strong point, but like I said if someone translated this one it would be so awesome.
