faith is the irrational & non measurable break from euro-modernity that black resistance is rooted in because it's non-caputrable by political order. I think this space is difficult for communists to reconcile with because it requires something more than the state can provide

I swear to god, look closely enough, and you'll see literally every single conservative position leftists advance uses some minority as a shield, and in turn accuses their opposition of being part of some privileged group.

[SEISHI | Schrödinger's Call🔜DevGAMM Lisbon @seishi_acr]

When it comes to game localization, I believe the most important thing is whether the experience the developer wants to convey to the player is communicated in the same way as the original. At the same time, languages can never be tranlated on a strict 1:1 basis.

For example, in the English version of Schrödinger's Call, when Mary makes a phone call, players are almost always presented with a single choice: "☎️Hello." In the Japanese version, this is "☎️もしもし(Moshi-Moshi)."

First of all, the use of "Hello" as a telephone greeting is often credited to Thomas Edison, who competed with Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone. Althought the word itself existed long before the telephone, Edison proposed using it when answering phone calls, and it eventually became the everyday greeting we know today.

Japan, however, has its own unique telephone greeting. When answering or making a phone call, Japanese people traditionally say "☎️もしもし(Moshi-Moshi)." The expression comes from "申す(mōsu)", a humble form of the verb "to say," and originally served as a polite way of getting someone's attention before speaking.

Furthermore, the "☎️もしもし(Moshi-Moshi)" in the Japanese version of Schrödinger's Call carries another meaning, "もし(Moshi)" corresponds to "What if...?" in English. This concept of "What if" is also a core theme of the game. What if the moon hadn't fallen during the call...What kind of conversation would they have continued to have....?

When playing the Japanese version, players realize this sort of wordplay or metaphor through a certain line of dialogue near the end of the story. However, the English version does not have this.

As the author, I struggled with this decision. The English word "Hello" does not carry the meaning of "What if." I even considered forcefully adding a few extra lines exclusively to the English version, Howeve, I decided that doing so would disrupt the rhythm of the story.

Ultimately, what we prioritized was the deep experience of the game that transcends mere words. "☎️もしもし(Moshi-Moshi) = What If" is merely a form of wordplay that can only be understood in Japanese. Rather than that, to provide all users with a meaningful experience that transcends language, I chose not to add unnecessary English dialogue.

As you can see, even just between Japanese and English, there are many differences. I believe the key is for developers to understand as much as possible about multiple languages and make informed decisions. Of course, there are limits, but effort goes a long way.

@EcoTechBro It's good(and miserable) to know that this mindset exists in black Americans and it's not just a Caribbean thing, diaspora wide issue, can it even be solved?
