Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

So it's official... I will be working on the Flowers visual novel as a translation checker! #flowersvn

I will not be retranslating the game, but I will be working my hardest to bring an accurate and legible translation to the fans. #flowersvn

I'd also like to mention that there will be another translator and a bunch of editors/testers involved, so I'm not alone in this! #flowersvn


As nice as this normally would be, JAST apparently still wants to get this game out in March so not sure if they and that other translator are going to be able to check the script within 2-3 weeks. While also giving those editors time to polish the text.

I don't really have any hope for Flowers at this point, especially if they're sticking with the March release.

Yeah, the only way I can see it getting an actually competent translation is if they patch it later on. And even then, it'll probably still be stiff and weird-sounding, just not filled with typos and errors.

It's been delayed for QC. And a newly polished demo will be released. Further details will come later.

Unless they plan on retranslating the whole thing, I'm not sure how much help this will be. I'm trying not to be cynical but this is JAST.
