Imagine having such a massive ego that you equate translating an existing work on the same level as a painter or musician creating brand new art

Maybe if they just gave the creators ideals instead of their own they would not have this problem. No one cares if you have a problem with something "problematic", get over yourself and give it to us the way it was made or quit out of the field.

actual dialogue.
Hang em all.

>act indignant when they make a fuss, earning attention and money from people who want to join in on the conversation
The only solution is to not engage at all. Learn Japanese or enjoy a fan-translation, but don't fuel the culture war that these people thrive in.

paying for games which are confirmed to have been dishonestly translated*

Chase Long
lol you see this exact same thing with manga fan translators where if someone else makes an attempt at a series someone else is doing the other team/person will pack a gigantic shitty and cry about it and threaten to stop translating

Is it bad because he's against censoring? Of course it is, why am I asking.
Go Ken Go, get them to remove those stupid laws.
Cooper Collins
These people are fucking bizarre. They're always invariably perverts but behave like puritans when it comes to the content of media.

Video game translators are nearly failures at their chosen profession. If they were actually competent, they could get a real job that pays very well.
