This sounds like these people are saying they want the game to be AI-translated (because they hate localizers), not that they think it is. Their issue is that it was clearly localized by humans.

These people don't understand that it's completely normal for game localization to "change" lines, because the same tone/intention from the japanese can't be conveyed by a literal translation, and certain expressions, when translated literally, won't sound natural.

Like if the best you can come up with (the #1 leading example they started their thread with) is dialogue where all the lines are the same except one of them has "rub-a-dub-dub" in it then you really don't have a case. Especially when they mistranslated one of the lines themselves.

People like this have taken the few cases where localizers did take extreme liberties or inject american politics into lines, and have gone crazy over it, now seeing red at every single localization change ever. Games from 15-20 years ago that were beloved for their localization, they'd hate if they saw it now, nitpicking every single line for not being enough of a literal translation.
