I just found out that Geofront is releasing the Zero no Kiseki English translation in a couple days. Isn't that a bit of a dick move, since Trails of Cold Steel III is also coming out in a few days and they're going to undercut its sales?

NOBODY CARES

Bruh we'll get Zero&Ao kai soon enough and it will invalidate the fan translation

Aren't they releasing the non-canon version though?

>as if the majority of people would be able to emulate even if its piss easy
nah

I hope the Cold Steel cameos are just a little bit of flavor text/world building because I wouldn't want to play this game twice.

Bullshit, nobody translated the Evolution games because they were actually worse than the originals. They have good music but you can just mod that into the originals.

Baccano was cool, did you watch Durarara?

Kai=/=Evo
We're getting a HD version on PS4.
At the pace Geofags are going, you'll play fantranslated Ao a decade after kai duology releases west side.

Durarara is very good but the novelty of Baccano being one of the very few anime set in 1930s America is a lot more appealing. Granted Durarara centering around a Celtic mythological being and later bringing in a bunch of cool Russians is certainly unique in its own way. Durarara also has the advantage of actually having a complete anime adaptation whereas Baccano only covered the early stuff, but that's less of a problem now that the Baccano novels are fully translated. I also like Katsumi Enami's art style way more than the Durarara artist, whose name I used to know but I don't remember anymore. Although that artist is still a good artist and did the art for the Devil Survivor games as well.

Oh. Man, they have ported these games a lot of fucking times, huh?

If you weren't a retard you would had already completed it by now

With the shitty machine translation? No thanks.

>I just found out that Geofront is releasing the Zero no Kiseki English translation in a couple days. Isn't that a bit of a dick move, since Trails of Cold Steel III is also coming out in a few days and they're going to undercut its sales?
lmao everyone is gonna pirate Zero anyway.

He likely means if you weren't a retard you'd know every single language in existence and therefore you'd have played it in its original form.

But the people who pirate Zero won't be playing Cold Steel 3 on launch because they'll be busy playing Zero. It's going to fuck with sales.

It already sold well on PS4
And Switch Chads don't care about emulators
PC is only a nice extra

Cold Steel sucks anyway.

Already played both in 2017/2018, Geofront is so late that it literally doesn't matter anymore.

Any true Kiseki fan would've played the rough PC fan translations that came out 2 years ago and would've played CS3 on PS4 last October if not the JP release using the spread sheat. Unless they're too cheap to own a PS4. They'll either be more concerned about when the hell CS4 is releasing or were planning to support falcom by buying these releases anyway.

The current zero/ao translation isn't machine translated, it's just a more literal human translation is some part and a few typos because it wasn't heavily edited.

>if not the JP release using the spread sheat
Way to fucking ruin your fun, at that point just learn nip

The current translation really isn't that bad. I was expecting machine tier quality too but aside from being a little awkward at times due to translating some things literally and a few typos, it was perfectly playable. Makes me wonder why it took Geofront so long when they had a solid base to work with.

Was Geofront actually using it as a base or were they doing their own from scratch? Still a translation like this can take a long time because it's possible to do a translation that "looks fine" grammatically but actually gets the lines completely wrong, like both translations for Cross Channel.

Not that you would know or be able to identify when something is not saying what it should.

Crossbell... Home...

Based. Fuck NISA. They should've released Cold Steel 4 in the west already. Greedy bastards.

they added some events like showing what happens to gideon which is only mentioned by someone.

anyone got a download link for zero?

To erebonian soldiers

Who is that pink haired girl?
She looks like she is a slut for Erebonian cock

are ao and zero a lot better than trails in the sky 1? because that game was pretty disappointing

>It's going to fuck with sales.
No more then them releasing 3 without doing Crossbell first

I'm not a subhuman EOP so I don't care about some terrible fantranslation.

Yes, it's better paced.

Gameplay-wise, sure. In every other regard? Nope.

It should be XSEED releasing Cold Steel in the west. What the fuck happened?

>It should be XSEED releasing Cold Steel in the west.
Why?
Everyone jumped ship, Nisa got most of the old staff on it.

Lol, isn't NIS and NISA dying too? And what happened to XSEED?

Eh, really? Did they get Hatsuu?

That tranny?

I don't think XSEED is in any danger of dying since they're funded by Marvelous, but they fired some of their best employees who were the only ones working on the Trails games.

Also, I have been waiting for that Sakuna game for what feels like years. I don't know what the fuck happened to it. It looked fun.

You and me both. They said this winter last year and I'm pretty sure winter just ended march first.

>did they get Hatsuu?
No, she's begging for work on twitter

It says on her Twitter bio that she works at Nexon now. She'll probably be fine.

No you didn't, geoshill. You fags have been shilling and hyping this shit up for a while now and it seems like you've entered the last stages. Go back to sucking of floofy, you absolute faggot.

>it seems like you've entered the last stages
This is only the end of the first half, my friend.

You can just play the already out translation to be honest,

And ruin the game? Pssssh.

? The translation out is more than playable, it has some weird choices here and there but it's alright, i'm excited for the release of geofront after so many years but it really won't be any gamechanger.

EOPs playing Cold Steel obviously don't care about the other game's continuity so no, not really. They'll just play it after Cold Steel III comes out.

Why is every fantranslation team full of people like this?

shut the fuck up onsokumaru
but you're not wrong

I don't care about any of this bullshit but I want to take this opportunity to complain that cokesakto's translation of the Kara no Kyoukai novels is fucking garbage. It is the most annoying kind of translation I have ever seen, where he obviously started from a position of translating it faithfully but apparently fancies himself to be a writer because he constantly inserts stuff that he completely made up that is nowhere to be found in the original novels, as well as changing all the established terms into his own stupid bullshit. Fucking makes me seethe that there is an ostensibly "complete" translation of the novels and it is something that completely ruined them like this. And this is the only option because the official translation picked up the project, released one book, and then immediately dropped it. Anyway, apparently the guy tried to stick his nose in the translation of FHA and they told him to fuck off, so I take some small satisfaction in that. None of this remotely has anything to do with Trails but I saw an opportunity to complain so I took it.

NISA is trash and doesn't deserve your money

also what does Firo have to do with anything?

Pretty much, imagine actually waiting for geofront. Hello if you waited for geofront all this time you might as well wait for kai now.

Is Kai confirmed to be getting localized?

The translation has been available for well over a year now. It just needed cleaned up and edited fully.

>Isn't that a bit of a dick move, since Trails of Cold Steel III is also coming out in a few days and they're going to undercut its sales?
>Playing CS1/2 or even 3 before crossbell

So where can I get a came copy then? I decided to wait because the last translation attempt was pure ESL.

The artist of Baccano is also the artist of Zero/Ao.(And Ys Seven, for some reason.) That is the only joke being made by the image.

Not knowing if it'll even come out just makes it a better emulation of the geofront experience.

Well, frankly I don't see why it wouldn't. We're in too deep for them to back off now.

Ahh, yes, the good old "i'm a failed writer so I'll "translate" stuff myself by writing in some shit that doesn't happen in the original work because I obviously know better than the actual writer himself" syndrome. This kind of shit is everywhere and any time you even dare to point it out you'll have a swarm of retards tripping over themselves to defend it because they think there's only 2 kind of translations: literal (or MTL as some like to call it) and liberal (which means change everything and addin stuff that doesn't exist in the original). There is no in-between for these people.

>but the novelty of Baccano being one of the very few anime set in 1930s America is a lot more appealing
i pray every day that the calvard arc is basically baccano 2

Incidentally, what is with the Trails series and nearly driving people to suicide? Remember the Carpe Fulgur who was sent spiraling into depression by translating SC, and in the weirdest case of irony I've ever seen, was saved by someone named Robin Williams?

>NISA is trash and doesn't deserve your money
Nisa releases the damn games.

nah. you have shit taste tho

>tfw played Zero back in 2014 and couldn't care less about the patch so I can just enjoy the drama

This is the case with most official game localizations. Hell, Trails games are full of rewrites and unnecessary additions, especially the 3rd and CS1-2 (can't say anything about 3 yet, I've only played it in Japanese and never wached any trailers or playthrough).
