@Yorha8k@Wuthering_Waves plenty of rules apply here, not just a straight translation, i bet they're "modernizing the language to befit the target audiences mundane vocabulary to appeal to them"
but i completely understand and agree with you. it should've been 1 to 1 , as that hurts the character's image
@Yorha8k@Wuthering_Waves so to say the least........ cringe localizers need to be "Redacted" for the best of both worlds. but again EN Dubs for many characters to me felt superbly great. if you look at Augusta, Zani, Lumi, Qiuyuan "altho his JP's Va fkn slaps as, same for Calcharo"
@Yorha8k@Wuthering_Waves as a player of both WUWA Genshin, and ZZZ "previously also HSR but i quit like a year ago" i can say that hoyogames forcing the same accent throughout the whole cast gets to be very bland and boring to a certain degree, especially when you look at the cultural diversity they have
@Yorha8k@Wuthering_Waves the Cult localization sadly exists, that is true and i lose a bit of my spirit whenever a word that's completely out of place gets used, as a Master graduate in applied linguistics i squirm in cringe at some of the things they force out. but, its overshadowed by many other things
@mislead its literally for Gambling "except the Relic which drops mods you need to hunt a (REDACTED) that spawns when you do a (REDACTED) for a chance to get a (REDACTED)"
hope that helps
@DailyDoseofWuWa postergirl + pretty much the first girl you wake up to "technically", that and she has a pretty fitting personality for a starter companion.
kinda the same way ZZZ has Anbi as the Icon
@a_rbati@InfosMinutesFR said the pseudo-france county that's half-filled with jews and pedos.
your only legacy is leeching off the Algerian Heritage while kissing up to France and Isreal. meanwhile your so called king is abusing his influence over the ignorant people to break apart the Islamic trads
@AmeDanAme@daily_dailies also sorry for the confusion, but Gacha Grail were a twitter community pretty much hellbent on pushing for the "WUWA is a waifu collection game, and only Mrover is canon because we only see female characters as sex objects and romance partners"
they were a very toxic, sad bunch
@AmeDanAme@daily_dailies yes, they absolutely chose to do so. what type of Developer wouldn't want to broaden their playerbase to include all kinds of gamers ?
but again its a trope within online games, choosing the likeness of the MC you can align with always acts as a good hook.
@Yorha8k@Wuthering_Waves they're awful to you but good to others, its subjective to say the least sameway someone might like Opera but others find it trash and unappealing.
in all fairness the EN diversity of accents is very welcomed and gives a ton of color to the characters, and that is a fact.
@Yorha8k@Wuthering_Waves if you don't like EN VO just change ? different tastes for different people. can't all have the same likes and dislikes.
moreover, you just hating about it loudly only gives off a shitty impression about your personality for everyone to see
