Dr. Fetus posted:I mean there are certainly mistakes and stuff that just doesn't read well at all in there. But I wouldn't call the localization bad by any means. People who say it's outright garbage are being hyperbolic, because Persona 5 has nothing on localisations of older games, which did tend to fall into unreadably bad. It just falls into mediocrity, which is a bit unfortunate. I feel like there are two types of complainants on this; people who complain about things like "how blatantly Japanese" the game is who are probably experiencing it as their first Persona game and would prefer Apollo to have his Hamburgers, and don't realise that's part of the charm for a lot of fans (or they just enjoy making GBS threads on Japanese things for god knows what reason), and the people who nitpick a couple lines of overlooked errors in a game that was delayed a lot, and that would be like the length of Lord of the Rings if you wrote it out. Neither of them are particularly wrong, but both are somewhat missing the point. W.T. Fits posted:I'm a native English speaker, and I was too busy enjoying the hell out of the game to notice or care about any of the stuff people have been complaining about when it comes to the English script. Yeah apparently I just skip over most of it like the trick where you rearrange the letters in the middle of a word and it remains legible as long as the first and last are the same, because I didn't notice anything at all.

Blastinus posted:Special shoutout in that scene goes to the kids who, discovering that one of their classmates tried to commit suicide, decided to pull out their phones and take pictures. It's the little things that really make you dislike the faceless NPCs that populate this world. I am frankly shocked nobody took a selfie.

Hobgoblin2099 posted:I'm not really sure what it is that needs elaborating on, but if it's Kamoshida's actions, I think it's pretty safe to say that his mental version of the volleyball team being them in bikinis gets the message across very clearly. He is one of the most acutely hate-able antagonists in recent gaming memory. I was entirely with the protag and Ryuji when they decided that if he goes braindead, so goddamn what? It's nice to have an enemy that is just straight-up evil, but even then, in a totally human way.

Completely irredeemable. Should've given the job to my erotic VN translator buddies, who would've ensured it was filled with memes. Kids like memes, right? On a more serious note, I didn't even remember this line. It didn't stick in my mind at all, even immediately after reading it. I kind of skim-read everything I read, so maybe that's why, but I'm playing through SRW OG Moon Dwellers right now, and that's probably my standard for a busted translation. It's not unreadable, I get the broad strokes of the plot, but a lot of characterisations are lost because everyone speaks in the same "voice", if you know what I mean? P5 has charming characters and hateable villains, and with the sheer magnitude of text that must be in this game, I'm willing to overlook a few errors, especially given they must've been rushed for time bringing it out. I don't have much problem with Shiho's treatment either. As people have said, given the nature of palaces, Kamoshida's offence needed to be something bad enough to counterbalance "possible braindeath" as a side effect. I don't think stealing staplers from the school supplies would quite have cut it.

Kith posted:It wouldn't feel nearly as much of an rear end-pull if we saw Akechi loving around with his card at any point, or if multiple people winning the same amounts as the player was noted as something that was announced. The arena announcer mocking someone who actually bet on Joker to win would go a long way to showing this.

Clarste posted:I would certainly hope that they learned from their mistakes. "Oh hey, turns out not being able to control your characters isn't fun." I have no problems not being able to control my characters directly, if I can at least give them general instructions. FFXII's gambit system appeals to the same part of me that spends 200 hours in Factorio. More games should use that type of system. Let me entirely automate random battles dammit. They also learned that randomised fusions aren't fun, too.

AradoBalanga posted:Since he can go into the Metaverse, Akechi went to where Kamoshida's palace was and found some trace of the Phantom Thieves' work. Palaces collapse and disappear when the Shadow ruling it is beaten. If Akechi is snooping on the team, he has to do it during infiltration time. Or maybe in Mementos. But you can completely ignore Mementos outside the one forced trip, can't you?

Qrr posted:It wouldn't have worked because people don't believe the phantom thieves exist. And people don't believe the phantom thieves exist because <footage missing>. because the phantom thieves attempted to stab the personification of the collective desires of humanity in front of the subconscious minds of everyone, who responded by forcefully rejecting them, which when the world combined with Mementos, meant literally disbelieving them out of existence because this poo poo works on M:tA consensus reality rules now. It's a slight conflation of the two meanings of "believing in" someone.

I think the whole "story contradicting itself" re: people turning to the PThieves to solve their poo poo again isn't as bad as it first seems since I think it's pretty clear that Yaldabaoth isn't actually using the desires of the people to guide its hand, but in fact went rogue a long time ago from being hopped up on its own power, and is just using that as a flimsy justification for doing whatever it wants. I mean, it played a stacked game against itself, lost, then redefined the terms of victory, declared itself the winner anyway and did what it wanted in the first place. Yaldy had made its decision to erase humanity before Joker even set foot in the Velvet Room. Just another lovely authority figure imposing its lovely will on people.
