I hate all this shitty google translated garbage.
They could probably have transplanted the original English script from the PC original version into this, which would make it a lot better than machine translation or probably even an actual translation since that would still be English->Japanese->English.
this, im genuinely unsure why they didnt just inject the already translated english script. there is nothing new in this console conversion iirc.
You just reminded me of that moronic Wizardry translation that "localized" the spell names from their "nonsense Japanese names" into "English".
It was multiple games they did this with too. Mostly the Gameboy Gaiden and maybe even the ports of 1-3.
How do you know it was google translated?
>Project description
>======================
>This is a ROMhack/patch to translate the Ultima Underworld PSX version to English.
>The text content form the original English PC version has been adapted and put into the PSX version.
>This includes: cinematics (subbed), images/menus, game world descriptions, npc conversations.
That doesn't say anything about google translate anon
>For the most part, it was possible to transfer the text contents largely unchanged from the English version.
>However, some strings had to be adapted for size reasons, either for ROMsize, or display size (Japanese strings are usually much shorter than English strings).
>Most prominently, the Avatar´s replies in NPC conversiations have only 5 static lines with much fewer characters than in the PC version.
That is why the Avatar´s replies had to be edited down quite severely.
>Dynamic strings were often altered, because the sentence construction/word order works differently in Japanese, and it had to be adapted for that.
That sounds fine.
OP BTFO
Sorry, you wanted it done by our reliable discord kittens instead?
No. I would prefer for games to remain untranslated.
Play it unpatched, moron; Pay people to stop creating translation patches.
bitch
Am I supposed to be offended? Words mean nothing when they come from an EOP.
Dont worry, we eop are just laughing at you all getting sad over your shit shovelware getting translated. Unlike you, we dont waste our time pretending to enjoy this kind of crap. It must be very high iq to pretend you all have fun playing jap shit, dude
I don't pretend to enjoy it. I don't play garbage games, and the entirety of the Ultima franchise falls under that category. I only play good games.
I just wish people would stop translating anything in general. And they're not even translating it, they usually feed everything through Google.
This is just the original script though.
Holy bait Batman. Even Redditors with walls full of funko pops have better taste than you.
Redditors would enjoy gay shit like Ultima and would import the Famicom carts to display next to their Funko Pops.
You are probably one of those people.
It doesn't change the fact that it shouldn't be translated.
I don't translate anything and I've never translated anything. Things need to remain untranslated and a bounty should be put out for the trannies that translate anything.
>Redditors would enjoy gay shit like Ultima and would import the Famicom carts to display next to their Funko Pops.
>import the Famicom carts
They're Apple II/MS-DOS games anon. I know there's some nes/famicom/other console ports but they're mostly shit (other than the Sega Master System version of IV which is apparently one of the best versions.)
In other words you've just revealed that you have no idea what you're talking about. Even slightly.
that's fine
because whatever language you speak, you'll always be a massive loser
and in the end

Angry troonslater. Your time has passed
intredasting, I will be all over this.
vrpg may love or hate this news
there isnt a single Ultima game worth playing. they are all dogshit
Nah Ultima Underworld 1 and 2 aren't really part of the main series or even developed by the same people. And they're great, 2 of the best games ever made.
let's all basedgape over a translation of a chopped down console version of a game that was already in English
This version runs smoother and the controls are actually better since the early 90s first person game controls on pc were dogshit and you couldn't even customize them, plus it has some better artwork and music quality. Some people who've never played the original might get something out of it.
Why would you want to play this over the PC version?
>why do you want to type keywords or have 40% of the screen taken up by the UI
Fricking noob
I need a img version to patch it but idk where to get one. any anon want to patch it and host it somewhere?
CD Romance is your friend
>PSX port of a western game released only in japan had no english option included and needed to be translated
what
>play Symphony of the Night undub/retranslation
>Red Rust, one of the first weapons drops
>now translated as "Rusty Sword"
>original name is アカサビ, LITERALLY "red rust"
>it's fricking red and it's rusty
frick fan translators, literally getting something this wrong right out the gate
? It is a Rusty Sword anon. I don’t understand your issue. Even going English to any other language there’s nuance like this with no direct comparison. I linked a quick example below. English has the most usage of this type of inflection in speech that just doesn’t exist in other languages and is very difficult to translate as a result. Other languages have similar quirks and things. Making literal translations nonsense

Imagine posting some homosexual video by a habeebee prostitute and thinking it will make your point. You are either trolling, or a lost game journo
What the hell is wrong with you? If you struggle understanding inflection as a concept you may have autism. It’s one of the key characteristics of English conversation that people on the spectrum struggle with. I just searched for a topic, and pasted the first relevant result to explain what I was talking about.
Reddit would be more your speed , champ.
>I just searched for a topic, and pasted the first relevant result to explain what I was talking about.
the children on this board can't understand this concept, they just look for their little trigger words to go feral over and derail the conversation. Just ignore these posters and move on
Same pitiful gay
fully seething
>? It is a Rusty Sword anon. I don’t understand your issue.
I typed out the "issue" in explicit detail. Didn't read the rest of your post, since you displayed yourself as being too stupid to waste time on.
The name of the sword is RED RUST. That is its literal name. The translator fricked up because he apparently doesn't know Japanese. So he just called it "Rusty Sword", which is NOT ITS NAME.
How fricking moronic are you.
I imagine it's because it wasn't really a straightforward Japanese->English translation last I checked, but rather, a Japanese->Italian->English translation.
And honestly, for what it is, it turned out way better than it had any right to be, some of those multilanguage translations are unmitigated disasters that are only one step above the MTL crowd.
>play sotn retranslation
>gets mad when things have different translations
>strawmanning this hard
Fan translations very often claim to have the most "accurate" translations, because official translations tend to localize things (onigiri? no, those are donuts) to not upset the little white kiddies. So fans, being weebs, try to get everything 1:1 accurate. These frickers flubbed on one of the very first item drops in the game, which calls the ENTIRE rest of the translation into doubt.
I'm kind of surprised you don't know this, are you new here?
I've basically never seen a retranslation of a game that justified itself. Even in a lot of the shitty old translations you usually have a perfectly serviceable script that at best needs a couple of corrections to things that were outright mistakes. There's no need to go over a game that's been 99% translated just fine with a fine-toothed comb and redo every little line.
Most "retranslations" are done by people that don't know Japanese anyway.
Most of them are ESL too for that matter.
>PS1
in your image its called PSX, why did you intentionaly typed PS1?
Mouse injection is a thing as well for PS1. Ultima bros... we're eating good tonight!
