New translation in all aspects other than character names. Which I guess could be said for all old school FF retranslations.

Do people actually think the old translation is better?

The story reads better with the new one, but I don't give a damn about that. I want the original names for everything. People, Skills, Jobs, ect. I hate that Old English BS myself

Not really, but I get your point. When you've played the original as many times as some people on here have, it's hard to even talk about the game with new fans because all the names are fucked up. It's hard to even remember what's going on in the game as well if you're used to the old names and can't remember what the new ones are.

I enjoyed the new translation. The one part I didn't like was skills bring renamed. The first playthrough for certain skills I had to keep reading the help to make sure I used the right one.

The Draw Out skills were hard enough to remember without changing them to shit like Ame-no-Murakumo

Lol, I at least sympathized up until you ragged on my favorite modern FF katana name. Ame-no-Murakumo is the coolest katana you can get in XII.

Then keep that shit in FF12 along with your Zodiac Spear unless you open 4 random* chests.

* Yes, I know it's not random, but it might as well be since you have no clue unless you knew about it beforehand that the game will fuck you over. Just like the new version of FFT fucks you over by not letting you Steal some great gear anymore.

ehhh, i think you have to go with the new translation, there were moments when a character or place would have 2 or 3 different spellings even in the same conversation. Arguably the worst translation of all time

Nostalgia matters and is part of objectivity.

Nostalgia is by definition not objective.
