I say this as a professional who came up from fan translation and has friends at Sega who will likely never get to work on this officially: when you fan translate ANYTHING that was previously untranslated, you have a deep, heavy responsibility in setting people's first and typically only impression.

Translations set global legacies for works and if you're not prepared to handle those ramifications, then stay away. If anyone on the team sees this, I sincerely urge you to rescind this patch and think deeply what you have done. This isn't a matter of ideology; it's about responsibility, period

segata sanshiro wouldnt want you to use chatgpt

i cant imagine how bad an MTPE translation of a game like segagaga where every single line is buried in layers of deep otaku references is but im not about to self harm by playing it to check

first screenshot i see having polivitan (blatant parody of an energy drink called lipovitan) turned into "polyvitamin" and "harisen" left untouched isn't a great sign

i finally got a genai bootlicker to qt me talking about how mad and nerdy i am that a jp-only game i genuinely would've dropped any and all activities i was doing to play through in its entirely in english had someone use MTL tools at some point in its dev, so that's actually really funny LOL

It's time for some people to stop being polite and draw some lines here. Don't let the scene get infested with this or the people that turn a blind eye to it. I'm serious.

They should honestly never live this down. Segagaga was a crazy white whale in the Dreamcast and FanTL world, hugely culturally important. No one that worked on this and knew it was ChatGPT should ever be trusted with a FanTL again. Or be seen as anything but a slop peddler. I'm pissed.

You guys are putting a lot of onus on indie creators to save a commercial industry, but don't even support the artists or their work unless it gives you the industry vibes, like come on be for real.

The whole thing that makes indie awesome is that you literally answer to no one. Not the fans, not a director, you make what you want and hopefully people vibe.

Indie isn't about generating jobs or wealth, it's about producing art first and foremost. I am actively losing money producing and making my indie webcomic, time I could spend doing more profitable things, but that's not why I make what I want to make.

Happy Phox Friday!

My weirdest creation is almost old enough to drink.

this is my son chudbert, he has suffered multiple car accidents as a kid, he has glass bones and paper skin, he had to have his heart replaced, and he's only 4 years old. and he's green.

Even if it's "human reviewed," you have thrown the integrity of the entire translation into question, leaving me second-guessing the accuracy of every single line of text. And I'm not even getting into the ethical and ecological concerns of the use of ChatGPT in the first place!

I'm so fucking mad, Segagaga finally getting translated should've been a landmark moment. One of the white whales of translation should've had more care given to it than to outsource the bulk of the work to fucking ChatGPT. With a game of this legacy, you either do it right or don't do it all.

this tweet might have genuinely permanently ruined Nemesis for me dude i can never look at it the same

trans person: im trans society: ok person who hasnt played pokemon in years: i havent played pokemon in years so i dont care about these new pokemon or games

Happy 30th birthday to Pokémon. Without it, the greatest Werner Herzog quote of all time would not exist.

i never really understand the talk about "no skip albums" because like. that's most albums i listen to lol. if i'm listening to an album i want to listen to the whole thing as a piece of art start to finish. every track is there for a reason

fact that it took this much to bring the dirt on this guy to light, after already getting caught, suspended, and then re-hired, considering the extent of his crimes and the fact that he isn't even that popular or important just makes me wonder what else goes swept under the rug in this industry

nothing has ever put me off a game more than hearing "its for content lovers"

dude this comparison is insane

pokémon fans when they have to wait an extra year

the new creatures!!

JUST PATCH IT

the fact that the FromSoft "no" isn't "why remake it" but "we want to remake it ourselves" is actually giving me frenzy

Fucking hell when I pointed out this morning Ellison had a history of hiring (untalented) men who faced allegations of sexual harassment, had no idea a new one would drop in hours www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

i mean this with zero disrespect but i'm truly hitting that point where if i see somethin real cool and novel and the word "roguelike/roguelite" is in the desc it feels a bit like slamming a tack into the balloon of my soul. which isnt to say i wont still wanna play it but i gotta let out a "Damnnn"
