[QUOTE="Brand Newman, post: 9189023, member: 348629"] Fun fact : in the game there's a bad guy named Neil (member of the Wolf Tribe, or like I translated it, "the Horde") who keeps calling your characters "chickie mage". I know it's meant to make the player understand how evil he is, but I'm having trouble finding the balance between fair translation and something that would be a little too much offensive. I do think Neil should remain misogynistic and homophobic though, considering it plays a big part in his personality (he's also a big coward), but I "toned it down" a little by making him call the team "girls", or "ladies", instead of using words like "sissy" or even "f**g". I'd be curious about your opinion, considering the backslash someone experienced last year by translating a 25-year-old Japanese game with maybe too much fidelity...? The last thing I'd want in this world would be to cause controversy with a fan translation. I thought it was very unfair for the translator I mentioned above, as I believe you can use offensive words as long as it is motivated by the context (bad guy obviously wouldn't have that kind of consideration, and most often it shows a despicable part of their personality). But maybe that's just the French in me speaking (we don't have the reputation of being easily offended)... Looking forward to reading from your opinions ! Have a nice afternoon. [/QUOTE]
