So as much as I love the GBA's full translation we should take care not to shit on the hard work of those who brought us this game back in the day. Even before we got the new translation this title was still a top 10 title of the forth gen. and we didn't shit on it, that's why the good part of the older translation are not changed. major example are Esper or Terra, they don't need a correction, so they were kept. however to refuse the newer translation because they are not the same with the one from your childhood is plainly wrong, especially when they are done to fix the wrong aspects. take off the nostalgia goggles. Re-read that earlier exchange and you'll see I don't prefer the old translation at all, quite the opposite. The Woolsey translation was getting an unfair amount of hate there for what was actually a hardware limitation, and I wanted to correct that narrative and help us better appreciate the creativity those limitations wrought. I love the SNES translation for what it gave me when I first played it, even with that translation FFVI would still be my favorite title of the franchise. Still, there's no denying the nuance the new translation adds to this story --- Whatever happened to standards? Whatever happened to bare minimums? https://i.imgtc.com/7UnK3hx.jpg <cite>hollow_shrine posted [p:893482587] in Gimme your...
