embarrassing for toby fox's USAmerican ass to shout "I LOVE TOUHOU BY JAPANESE DEVELOPER ZUN" in the inexplicably japan themed chapter of his USA-small-town-and-western-media themed video game, which he translates only to japanese... just as japanese developer ZUN announces a touhou remake translated to 10 different languages.
is toby fox racist for this? i'm not sure. my issue is that he's bourgeois about it. but it's painful to see and i WILL keep making fun of him for it
#what a fucking joke#god forbid an indie game dev makes homages to the games that inspired him to make utdr in the first place🙄🙄#obviously you can hope for more translations but#theres a HUGE difference between an indie game and a huge long-running franchise!!!!!#and toby knows japanese so he can personally verify the quality of the localization#honestly you should be ashamed of making this post#deltarune spoilers
do you usually reblog people but insult them in the tags? lol
i don't know how to tell you this but speaking as an indie game developer it's piss-easy to have your game translated these days
also "indie game dev" means nothing, that man makes millions off his games and millions off the merch other people made for him
game developers do not personally check every translation. that's insane and completely unheard of. instead they do something called "providing the translation team with notes so they can understand the jokes and references" and "localization quality assurance"
actually if you only experienced media thanks to the work and love of translation communities, yeah it's lame to make giant homages to it in your art but give zero love back to translation communities
toby fox is not evil for refusing to translate his games but he is being a copyrightbrained capitalist about it and i'll make fun of him for it <3
