No media is worth learning a language for, but can be a good tool to incentivize and facilitate learning a language. If you want to achieve fluency in a language you're looking at spending at least an hour a day on it for the foreseeable future, so you're gonna want a better justification than to play a handful of games you couldn't otherwise.

People have always learned other languages to enjoy their media. This isn't a new thing. It's also not exactly something to brag about (even the dumbest person in Japan knows Japanese), but I feel like people do it because they get fed up with waiting forever for a translation. Even worse, that translation could be inaccurate, full of rewrites, etc. For a modern example, look into Fire Emblem Fates which was absolutely plagued with dialogue that was flat out made up in places and changed for no reason in others (your kid gets rejected by all 3 girls that he can normally marry in the original version to name one particularly egregious bit).

Personally, I realized that I had been waiting for Aeon Genesis to translate Super Robot Wars Alpha for literally 10 years and said to myself "if I had started learning 10 years ago, I'd have finished the entire franchise by now."

If you're in the "video game stories don't matter lol" camp, though, feel free to just tell me to have sex and move on with my life, I guess.

It sure feels good to know Japanese. I'll tell you though, simply wanting to learn it to play games won't be enough.

The mistake many of you make is setting your initial goal to something that only becomes possible after months or maybe even years of dedication. Then you study for a week or two, maybe a month and get discouraged. Some of you stop outright, others start obsessing over the pointless minutiae of your study methods instead of doing any actual studying. And just like that, you're doomed.

Instead you need to realize it will take time and set reasonable incremental goals instead.

I never got why people would incite other people to not learn Japanese
>it's useless! why would you want to learn just to play games!
Why do they care about the anonymous person's willing to learn?
Moreover, it's actually contradictory because one of their arguments is that it's just better to wait for translations. But wait, if more people learn japanese, that means more people are going to do translations, which means you (the person who isn't willing to learn) can be ultimately benefited from having more translations for free.
So what's the deal? You want free translations, but you don't want people to learn the language? Where are these free translations gonna come from?

That's wrong. People learn Japanese for their own benefit, not to do others a favor. If I can learn Japanese then I can expect others to do the same.
Look at boards like /a/. The amount of Japanese speakers has increased significantly yet fan translations from Japanese are practically dead.

Of course, but if there are more people who are learning, there will definitely be more translations than if there were 0 people learning. That's my point. People who complain about people learning japanese, but then also say that they're fine playing fan translations are being contradictory, because translations come from people who learn the language, to varying degrees.
>The people actually releasing translations are often the ones that need them themselves and machine translations are seen as an acceptable tool along the way.
Good translate is a fine tool, as are dictionary sites or kanji sites, but they are tools. A person who studies japanese would still use dictionaries when doing a translation.
A person who is not familiar with japanese at all will have a significant hard time trying to translate anything, even using google translate.

That doesn't stop them. They run the script through a translation service and then edit it to make it less obvious even though they didn't understand the original text.
Then they release it and people eat it up because they have no idea they are being scammed.

Every time learning japanese comes up, a lot of people start preaching about how it's not useful or shouldn't be done, discouraging other people to learn.
If I was in the "I want translations, but don't want to learn" boat, I'd wholeheartedly encourage people to learn the language, so that I could, eventually, get more/better translations.
I think it's mostly that they take it personal, so they go "No, I don't want to, and you shouldn't want to either", but it is contradictory when you reason it and don't take it personal.

I am an ESL teacher and he's not wrong. Certainly not about moving on from the learning materials and onto the real thing as fast as you can. Just immersing yourself into a foreign language is counterproductive, but using exercises instead of real content past the initial learning stage is equally wasteful. I would say you only need about one months of (adequately intense) grammar study and word cramming before you need to move on to real use if you want to learn the language with any efficiency at all.

The entire issue is not everyone is the same. That is kind of boomerism logic of a blank slate but without recognizing that humans are born with only specific abilities and some limitations. Its possible do not get me wrong but to say everyone is the same and not recognize other factors is not the best way to go about it.
>Look at boards like /a/. The amount of Japanese speakers has increased significantly yet fan translations from Japanese are practically dead.
I use to be on /a/ a few years back and i go on every now and then. I will say they do have some loyal scan-translations that know Japanese very well which is tiny. It does help niche content find a more niche audience. But i will tell you that although there is "more Japanese speakers" a lot do not know the language all that well outside very basic stuff or sentences. Fan translation is mostly dead because there is little incentive to do something for free when you can get paid for it. Some will do it for free to break in the industry sure or sell off translations they have to get their name out.

Let me tell you something i go on /jp/ and have been on the visual novel translation thread for almost 5 years now. I have seen every single person who comes on the scene who has this mindset that MTL is acceptable, edit parts out and then it looks like a garbled mess. When in that same span of time the person could have learned Japanese and actually came out with something more decent or break into the industry itself. Sekai Project has had this mindset and they have not released much Visual Novels in the past 4 years even Moege visual novels that are usually written with a middle school language level, while Mangagamer has released a lot and is on the verge of translating Rance and Higurashi. My whole thing is like this person here >>6333952 is that there is no shortcuts to great translation, only daily practice, immersion and basically patience.

It's not even that. That'd be if there was no way to get translations, which then would mean that the ONLY way to play certain games would be to learn japanese. But considering the way to get translations is to get people to learn the language, then it makes no sense for these people to discourage others from learning it.

>But I feel like people do it because they get fed up with waiting forever for a translation. Even worse, that translation could be inaccurate, full of rewrites, etc.
It's odd to mention this because i started learning due to the fact that i wanted to play games that were out in Japan and would never come westward due to the moralistic puritan stances on various things like religious imagery,sex,lewd stuff, and even politics. I want games exactly as they are written and created, but unfortunately we perhaps may never get that until 15 to 20 years later. I can not wait that long and by that time i can at least be competent enough to be able to read and import what i want as well. Also you are right about translation being bad because there is some horribly translated by MTL and rewritten that makes hardly any sense whatsoever.
>For a modern example, look into Fire Emblem Fates which was absolutely plagued with dialogue that was flat out made up in places and changed for no reason in others (your kid gets rejected by all 3 girls that he can normally marry in the original version to name one particularly egregious bit).
You are right and that does play a role as well. There is no point to buying something if you are getting 1/3rd of the content cut out.
>Personally, I realized that I had been waiting for Aeon Genesis to translate Super Robot Wars Alpha for literally 10 years and said to myself "if I had started learning 10 years ago, I'd have finished the entire franchise by now."

Well then do not listen to them. Ever remember the response of "do not respond to trolls" or even to just not care.

Japanese should really just use a single alphabet. they seem to like the west more than the east so romaji would make sense but its a stretch. in reality they should just use one of the 3 that they use day to day. kanji honestly seems like a meme. almost like their version of Latin in the west. and from what i hear kanji isnt really a representation of the spoken language in written form.

You could (and would) probably translate it as 'familiar' most accurately, but in fact it's a specific neologism that sounds like 'friend/partner' but is spelled with the character for 'demon' in it. It's a kind of wordplay you can only do in Japanese and it's interesting but not tremendously subtle.

The way you said the Japanese should use romaji instead of kanji suggested that you had any knowledge on the topic, but apparently you don't. What a surprise.

Thing is that switching to a single alphabet would require a complete revision of the entire language, and that's not really feasible.

Japanese has a ridiculous number of homophones. Kanji help to differentiate words that have the same pronunciation.

[Anonymous No.6353582]

>>6353562
EOPs don't really understand even the basics of linguistics, so throwing scary words like "homophones" at them just makes them think of faggotmobiles.

Really the only response to these retards is to go "holy shit, why didn't any of the millions of Japanese ever think of that! I'm calling up the fucking tenno heika right now to give him this hot new take that somehow nobody else has thought up! Think of all the money they'll save on ink!"

And then you have to deal with homographs.

[Anonymous No.6353616]

>>6353562
Another great thing about Kanji is that it can compress information and let you give an incredible amount of info in just a few small characters.
English: Washing machine. 14 characters, 15 including the space.
Hiragana: せんたくき. 5 characters.
Kanji: 洗濯機. 3 fucking characters! Holy shit!

Anki is supposed to reinforce your learning by testing your knowledge with data based on how you performed previously. Don't expect it to teach everything new to you.
There are various approaches to learning kanji, typically based on their particles. This isn't a one size fits all approach, you have to see for yourself what method suits you most.

How would you translate that game name to English in a way that sounds appropriate? It's just "Seven Windy Islands Story" but that doesn't sound cool. Also not 100% on that translation, so sorry if I fucked it up.
