Well, at least translation will be swift this time, since AI translation now is free and simply superb. Heck, I read novels in MTL with relish, while just 2 years ago it was extremely painful to read.
"Simply superb" is a strong and somewhat untrue statement. Is it much more easy to read than 2 years...hell even 1 year ago? Absolutely. Is it superb? Nope, still a lot of "huh!?" moments in them. BUT you do get to avoid when translators try to add in their own little....spice to the characters. Looking at you Kaguya Games. I'll never let you live down whatever the hell that translation for Kozue's Strange Journey was supposed to be.
Yeah, that's one reason why I don't love this idea, every writer has a distinct style, I love how Baibai does the narration during the sex scenes so we'll see how this intervention of the AI tool affects the quality, the way I see it in the best case scenario it helps with typos and stuff but allows him to edit the text the way he wants it to be.
Yeah. But if you are a source and know both languages - all that's left is edit. And since the quality of translation is really high now - it will be a breeze.
Funny you said that - my main critique of this game was that it had quite a bit of typos xD
Baibai's gonna need to be very specific with the instructions, but at this point I'll take it, anything in order to keep him going, few things are more sad than someone who lost the passion and drive for a project.
Was this very post translated with an LLM?
To be fair, english is not my native language, and, chances are, I got this saying from MTLed novel I read xDWas this very post translated with an LLM?
Because it's very rare to encounter the phrase "to do something with relish" in real life.
Damn dude, bleak take, and kind of simplistic, isn't that how it always is? games take a lot of time and people abandon things for life stuff, you don't feel it beacuse theres a bunch of them coming at you every day, but I think talking like people are incapable to wait (granted a bunch of them are) feels like such a bummer and an exageration, this situations of dev time becoming longer it's just a reality that many people ignore, specially in the independent sector of gaming. It's an odd situation where you have more contact with the people responsible for the things you enjoy and that fuels entitlement because it's not a faceless corporation. I do agree that it's counter productive to chase perfection in your first project, the usual advice is to make stuff and get better at it along the way but I think the problem here is the intention to be a solo endeavor, theres many examples of teams that do great and keep themselves motivated. It makes me sad the situation with the game but I prefer to give the creative people the space they need without pestering about, a balance is need, that much is truth.
So many people don't understand creative work, and i include coding under creative work. Not to mention project management, sadly it's also not always the strong suit of the devs themselves. Both extremely important aspects of creating a video game, especially for solo or small dev team. The further along in the project you are, longer it will take since there's more things you have to consider and more things that can be messed up. Now i do agree with people, that most solo devs or small dev teams that do their projects by crowdfunding don't communicate well with customers/patrons. But that is to be expected since they rarely have anyone that is actually trained in that, or have people that have time to do it.
Only Baibai could answer that, but he doesn't like to give dates. He's working on the coding, so it shouldn't be long now. But since this will be the last version before moving on to the second chapter, he wants everything to be done properly (gallery, walktrough etc.).
Seduction. I don't like being a dick, even in a game.
