You still get the same stat boosts and everything you get from a S-support, the ability to reclass to their partner's classes, etc. So like, it's basically people getting upset that in their internal headcanon, Kana (m) isn't f**ing Sophie. Like, it isn't inherently a bad translation, it's just a different approach. You can dislike it (which is perfectly acceptable) but this idea that it's "butchering" is kinda missing the point of translation teams. --- TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues.* <cite>TheRock1525 posted [p:875936966] in 8-4, not T...

Wanglicious 03/26/17 9:02:33 PM #42:	...no, that's a bad translation. it's literally the exact opposite of what was written, what else are you supposed to call that? it's not their headcanon saying Kana isn't getting the girl, it's the game itself saying he's not getting the girl. the strategic gameplay isn't at all relevant in this discussion, the simulator aspects (supports, pairings) are along with the writing. --- "Maybe it's a tentacle, molesting the planet itself. - Aschen Brodel. <cite>Wanglicious posted [p:875937207] in 8-4, not T...

TheRock1525 03/26/17 9:17:08 PM #43:	No it's not a bad translation because that's literally how translating games works. It's been that way since the dawn of translations. If you want an exact translation, learn Japanese and translate it yourself. The whole point is to recognize the differences in audience between Japan and Western locations and to make changes as you see fit to make it appeal to the other audience. f* man we had Robotnik and then we had to get the "exact" translation to Eggman. f* that. --- TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues. <cite>TheRock1525 posted [p:875937890] in 8-4, not T...

MariaTaylor 03/26/17 9:19:44 PM #46:	Rock I think you're confusing translation and localization translation is literally translating something from one language to the other. if you try to translate something and come out with the opposite meaning then it's definitely a bad translation. like, by definition. now you can argue that it's fine to do as a localization effort, but there are plenty of people who would argue the opposite. this is a matter of opinion so there is no clear answer. --- Won't you be my <Friend>? https://puu.sh/uuF2l/1e28d09ff7.jpg <cite>MariaTaylor posted [p:875938030] in 8-4, not T...
