Gaming Persona 2: Eternal Punishment - Time for a Fan Translation?

[GoddessKozy]

I'M NOT SAYING THE PROJECT WAS CANCELLED. I'm not on the team, there's no way for me to know!

From what I remember there are lots of technical issues that need to be worked out, Tradukosoft has seemed to pull back from working on this as there are already very wonderful people working on it in this very thread! I apologize for the way I misworded it, it wasn't my intention to say this project has been cancelled entirely.

I just think that word from anyone working on this would be nice. The last time cj_iwakura posted here was months ago.

Which is very suspicious, no to give any information for months.
I just do not have any hopes left so i am going to play the PSX version

Take what you will from the situation, I really didn't mean to cause distrust or a loss of hope in anyone over this. I'm still hoping and am excited for any news surrounding this fan translation no matter how long it takes!

FWIW cj_iwakura has gone months without posting before it seems anyways.

Last blog update was October 2015. Their p2ep.traduko link is dead. And on their homepage it says,

As of the present time, we are currently working on three projects, as well as an as-of-yet unannounced fourth project. Here they are below:

1. Puella Magi Madoka Magica Portable (Releasing January 9, 2018)
2. Persona 5 – Fan Guide (Released September 6, 2016, consistent updates planned)
3. Conception (In Production)

"Unannounced fourth project" couldn't be P2EP, as it's already known.

So getting the game translated may take 1-2 years i guess... ( if the do not drop it )


Would LOVE to play the PSP version but *sigh* sadly cannot read japanese...

Like Iwakura told, I am really busy with personal things. But I am constantly coming back to P2, alas too few time to work enough on it. There are plans to make some new demo video, to show more progress, but it is just in plans. P2 is not abandoned, that's for sure.

I'm really thankful for that. I hope things are going well personally, I appreciate the update and am looking forward to what happens in the future!

(Whenever it happens, take your time!)

Thank you, Scorp. I really appreciate that you come here and explain the progress like this rather than abandoning us in confusion

Anyway, Is anyone capable of Region changing a Eu save of Innocent sin to Japanese?

I do not have a CFW PSP so can not do it.

Would like to us Eternal Punishments feature of carrying over stuff. ( Just ordered it from Japan + both Guide books, Google Translate with camera will help^^)

Not clear, where you completed P2IS. On non-CFW PSP? You can put your save files here, I can check later.

 

[Tempa777]

I completed it on my PSP ( EU version ), My PSP has no CFW.

Would apprecciate it if you could change the region of my save.

The save is:
Tatsuya lvl 99/ stats 99
Guitar Contact done
Karma Ring Aquired
Maya as Lovers Contact
All but 2 Fusion skills ( returned odin and some other persona and could not use them)
999 free Tarot Cards

Here what is beeing carried over:
- Level and States from Tatsuya ( if above lvl 55 )
-Name of Tatsuya ( if you changed it )
-Karma Ring from Alice
-Free Tarot Cards
-A new Contact Ulala+Katsuya+Tatsuya Flamenco special ( if Tatsuya can play Guitar in Innocent Sinwhich was optional )
-Almost all Fusion Magics
- Some Event changes which reflect the choices you made in Innocent Sin

Here is the save File:

This save File is pretty much identical to my old:

-Tatsuya LVL 99/ 99 all stats
-Karma Ring
-999 free Tarot Cards
-All Fusion spells
-Tatsuya can Play Guitar ( Ulala+Katsuya+Tatsuya Contact possible )
-Maya as "Lovers?" Contact

Do we have any news about the translation status?

 

[TasuyaSuoh]

The translation is back in progress!
https://iwakuraproductions.wordpress.com/about/#comment-1513 (scroll to the absolute bottom)
I'm so hyped!

 

[Zero Dozer]

WHOA, I just came to check on some translations and those news appear right in front of me. Great.

 

[mwahaha]

So, if my understanding is correct, current status of translation project is “translation completed and awaiting to be implemented

Excerpt from one of the commenter fro. iwakura sites.

As far as I know, they using the translation from PSX game with few modifications. If it's it's still still awaiting for implemented, it means there's still no progress at all... Can someone clear my understanding, please?
