Does anyone know if the recent patch update for Planet Laika changed anything in the script, I ask because I know some people complained enough for the author to take notice and acknowledge it. I want to know if this fixes anything or just changes some things around to be deemed less offensive

I don't understand this stuff at all. I don't get how somebody would be interested enough in niche Japanese vidya to spend a bunch of their free time translating it but also be so culturally small-minded to get bent out of shape about trifling shit like this. You're surprised when a 20+ year old game from a foreign culture turns out to have some stuff that's alien / offensive to you? Huh?

From the sound of it, the update is just a trigger warning in the readme with no actual game changes because that's how the game was.

LOL. It triggers the psycho trannies who actually learned Japanese. Oh my fucking god I hate these kinds of brainwashed faggots so much, they ruin everything.

Spoken like someone who would cut their own penis off. Can’t even pay homage to a culture that isn’t yours regardless of your race (unless you’re white of course then you “have no culture”).
Refuse to play this now, shame. They should give their tools to based moonspeak knowers so we can have an accurate translation.

The patch is still the same as the original release. He edited the content warnings to reflect that, but anyone with eyes can tell by the patch's release history that it was never updated.

He did the same thing for Iblard's big seizure warning, but the flashing lights were never removed but people ask about it as well.

I wonder if he's actually a tranny Aka a transsexual, NOT ""transgender"" nonbinary, genderfluid, nor agender gender studies bullshit , was groomed sexually by child-preying predators as a preteen, or has some sort of brain imbalance that's of neurological nature.

[Anonymous No.9254706]

Yeah but in this case only the word psycho was used. It's absolutely silly that some people need trigger warnings for shit like this. Like who the fuck cares the only people offended by the word psycho are psychos, the irony.

This game uses it as a class type. It doesn't get explained for over an hour, so people in the space colony are calling other characters "Psycho" with no formal explanation.

Cool deception by omission. The entire section of the readme makes it clear that the translator has no plans to alter the script to appease anyone.

Psycho is a “hard slur”? Psycho is like saying nigger or faggot? You’re telling me fictional characters in a fictional video game can’t insult or describe each other to the point where this guy has to apologize on behalf of all humanity for the word even existing?
PSYCHO???
Humans are over. It’s done.

[Anonymous No.9256303]

>>9256294
The translator got complaints about characters casually calling each other mentally damaged. Translator posts a note about the context, rebuking the interpretation. Psychos on 4chan crucify the translator for politely addressing the issue instead of changing their work.
Chill out.

The fact he is even addressing it using the newspeak is cringe. He is putting mental illness on a pedestal by doing this, for something he isn’t even making a profit on.
This didn’t need a write up other than “don’t like it, don’t play it”.

[Anonymous No.9256360]

>>9256341
Nobody is putting mental illness on a pedestal. It's just over the last two decades people started addressing mental health in a more delicate manner, with suffering people being treated as persons in need of professional help and potential recovery and reintegration into society, instead of damaged organisms needed to be isolated forever in psychic wards. The world is getting more humane to people in need, no need to raise a ruckus on the internet over some words becoming more abrasive to some people.

The fact that he wrote that fucking wall of apologies for not adding the proper trigger warnings is retarded to begin with. How do people like this even function, and why would someone that gets triggered by seeing a fucking word like "Psycho" decide to play a video game from the 90s in the first place?

[Anonymous No.9256450]

>>9256360
Anybody who loses their mind at the sight of the word psycho probably should be isolated forever in a psych ward. The translator was apologizing to people who need to be ignored because they are perpetually unhappy and never satisfied and not worth engaging with on any level.

[Anonymous No.9256469]

>>9256450
Nice twitter rhetoric here, calling to "deplatform" people you disagree with instead of engaging with them and trying to alter their worldview for the better.

[Anonymous No.9256480]

>>9256469
Ignoring people whining at you because they are unstable and never satisfied is "deplatforming?" He also specified cultural appropriation, which has never been a real thing outside of Netflix calling their original cartoons anime. It is good he didn't change the script though.

Instead of calling somebody a "psycho" for acting crazy as an exclamation or insult even in a work of fiction, the entire world has to dance around the truth and this will somehow be seen as humane...???

Instead of works of fiction being inspired by real life cultures, they will be inspired by nothing because cultural inspiration is inherently evil. This will work, because nothing is the mother of inspiration...right...?

I absolutely guarantee you chopped your peepee off you fucking psycho lol.

This gets thrown around a lot here but never has it been more needed to say:
You have to fucking go back to preddit.
Take this psycho mindset with you.

4chan is not the place for this newspeak babble designed to silence and hinder expression. Any and all attempts at hindering language with arbitrary rules is an attack on artistic expression and you are so brainwashed you see this kind of self imposed censorship/useless apologetics as a net positive for the world when all it does is harm. Think about what a tool for evil you are, what a corrupter of the truth you are, and what a soldier for evil you will eventually become.

Psycho isn’t a slur. It definitely isn’t whatever a “hard slur” is.
Translator didn’t have to apologize, and even if the game used actual “no-no” language (nigger,faggot,gay,retard etc), that’s the creative intent of the game and personality of it’s characters.

The more of you that exist in our world, the worse it becomes. You are not an amorphous grey blob and neither are the people inhabiting the world around you.

Begone .

>Translator didn’t have to apologize
The real question is WHY DO THESE RETARDS CARE ABOUT ANY OTHER PERSON ON THIS GOD FORSAKEN PLANET
Just translate a game, upload it in one of the literal hundreds of file upload websites, make a basic website to divulge them if you must. Don't create a fucking twitter to engage with anyone, don't go on some tranny police state romhacking site, don't associate yourself publicly with it. Soon a hub like cdromance will pick it up, the people interested in your translation will play it, the people that didn't like it won't. End of story.
Romhackers/translators can be virtually independent from everything but they choose to subject themselves to terminally online retards willingly. Why?
>nooo the admins at ywnbawhacks.org will reupload a censored version of it without my consent on their site!!!
literal non-issue, who gives a fuck

[Anonymous No.9256531]

The hilarious part is that the usage of "psycho" in this game is >>9254726 so it would've actually been more accurate to translate it as "psychic" in the first place.

But the translator probably doesn't know enough nip to realize this.

fuck off this does nothing to improve the lives of people with actual mental illnesses and is just another social justice circlejerk. I've seen all the love and care your ilk gives to people suffering with schizophrenia, dementia and other judgement impairing illnesses when they inevitably say something racist through no fault of their own.
This gets specially ridiculous when talking about translations of text from an era you weren't even born yet. Yeah I'm sure getting mad at the word Psycho, used in the context of 80's-90's japanese pop culture ESP, will improve the lives of people and not social policies, better treatment in hospitals and places of care, and improvement of public healthcare overall. Retard.
