| SGT_Conti 05/17/18 2:00:08 PM #467 | Just keep in mind I say this as someone who doesn't really read all that much at all anymore, and never went much into literature to begin with. It's better to have a character show their frustration toward a society through rebellious or disrespectful attitudes than to have them monologue or soliliquize. It's boring to read about a character info dumping their beliefs and it treats the reader like a fool who can't tell what a character is like without being explicitly told. --- Posted with GameRaven 3.4 |

Like, if you're paranoid about people talking smack about you, people do that anyway; it's called whispering or even just talking out of your earshot. Do these people rage every time they see two servers move close to say something quietly to each other? Confront everyone in the street who does thsout out their conversations in English?

It's an easier way to get those item cards that you need to reveal paths or mission rewards in Adventure Mode. Before you'd need to beat a tile containing the card but you can just skip that and buy it with rupees. You can only buy a card you've collected before. --- Posted with GameRaven 3.4 |

What kinda looks reactions whatever did ya get? For Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, I was typically in more tourist-heavy places, so they're far more accommodating when it comes to English. It'd probably be different if you go to rural places where there's less exposure to English or people who can't speak the local language. Hong Kong was a British colony, so English is taught in schools and most people know how to speak or at the very least understand it to some extent. I fell back to English a lot since my Cantonese is awful, but I didn't have trouble communicating. --- "I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be." |

| SGT_Conti 05/16/18 8:34:28 PM #28 | TheCyborgNinja posted... It's rude for people in the service industry to speak to each other in a language customers can't understand. That's about the extent of it though. It's hardly a crime against humanity. If they spoke to him in English, why should it matter what language they speak to each other in? And if they were speaking to another customer In Spanish, I would assume one or both parties are more comfortable doing that, which I would personally consider an example of catering your service to the customer. --- Posted with GameRaven 3.4 |

The original Devilman was notable at the time for the subject matter and violence, but it probably seems a bit more tame by today's standards. Devilman Crybaby is really well-animated and has great use of colours and designs but I'm still kind of torn on how I feel about the story.

| SGT_Conti 05/14/18 7:14:13 PM #214 | _Goggalor_ posted... Why are adjectives bad? Seriously, there's more than one way to say something. Language shouldn't be repetitive. There's nothing inherently wrong with adjectives but they should serve a purpose. Like, "rippling arm" is implicit by the description of the person as a barabrian; you're not going to have some scrawny dude in battle, so it's an unnecessary description. The swords should also be understood to be steel or at least some form of metal so using steel twice in the same sentence is not only repetitive, it's redundant. It's a matter of not needing to overexplain things and not treating the reader like an idiot. --- Posted with GameRaven 3.4 |

| Topic | man I hate english voice acting in Dynasty Warriors 9 |
| SGT_Conti 05/14/18 5:30:12 PM #5 | Zikten posted... sigh and the acting is bad. even for the series. they aren't even trying to over act like in older games. at least that was funny and had a certain charm. so far, everyone seems to sound bored. One of the voice actors said on Reddit that they were really strapped for time and often only had one take to do something, and weren't given pronunciation guides or anything. That last bit is really noticeable because in a single conversation you might hear a name said three different ways. Zikten posted... I heard the story is supposedly the best and most detailed it's ever been. but the acting.... I wonder if Japanese is any good. I'd probably have enjoyed the presentation a bit more if it wasn't broken up by painfully long and boring travel times and battles that last about 15 seconds if you go straight for the enemy commander, which is easy with a grappling hook or literally just running past the rest of their army. It's a deeply flawed game. I can appreciate trying something new with an open-world, but it just didn't work and the battles are uninteresting and either on hills, in castles, or plains. --- "I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be." |
