This bugged me a lot as well, but disregarding the "it's" typo, it makes sense when both lines are read together. He does say it will counterattack if you attack while the tail is up. Just poorly.

>>3988884
I didnt speak english very well when i first played this game, so i dindt even notice there were so many typos

it's supposed to be a Scottish accent

As an Irishman I'd say "tae" and "aboot, doon, noo" can't be Irish; must be Scottish. Not really that bad, because it's not hammed-up (in this instance at least)

Pic related is what really grinds my gears: nonsensical, retarded use of old-timey speech. Remaineth would mean (he/she/it) REMAINS. It can not be a command.

Reading Cyan's dialogue from FF6 is absolutely painful if you know the first thing about early modern (not old or middle) English. "Thou" is a less respectful pronoun than "you". It's like tu/vous in French, du/Sie in German.
>>
>>3992842
The opening portion of the game is actually as good as the translation gets. As soon as you meet Aeris it goes to complete shit and never recovers.

Maybe he played the PAL version which corrected a lot of typos

>>3992842
Sony themselves handled the localization and was done by 3 translators

>>3992894
I don't know what you're referring to, the translation is fine other than some ambiguity over the translation of "星" as "Planet" and "セフィロス・コピー" as "Sepiroth clone"
>>
>>3988884

This guy are sick
>>
>>3992906

Did you miss the extensive discussions about how to resolve all the remaining bugs that went exactly nowhere?

A translation that crashes the damn game is unacceptable.
>>
>>3992885
>"Thou" is a less respectful pronoun than "you". It's like tu/vous in French, du/Sie in German.
I've always wondered about that, since "ye" as in ye olde apparently is supposed to be pronounced just like "the" because whatever reasons, wouldn't "thou" and "you" have ye same pronunciation?
>>
>>3988884
Did any of the re-releases ever fix this stuff?

Sony should have spent less money on marketing and more on hiring a decent translator. See Legend of Dragoon as another example
>>
>>3994758

The "ye" thing is actually even more retarded than that. "Ye" is an improper transcription of [thorn] + [e]. Thorn is an obsolete Old and Middle English character that forms the diphthong [th].

So it's literally some fucking moron that mistranscribed "[thorn]e Olde Shoppe" as "Ye Olde Shoppe", even though that's completely wrong and it's just Middle English for "The Old Shop".
>>
>>3994798

Yup. Can't ever learn their fucking lesson.

Did no one read it before they posted it?

God, LoD's translation is terrible. It doesn't even use contractions.
>>
>>3992749
then don't play dragon quest friendo, most of the games are like that
>>
>>3994792
Yes the PAL and Steam release corrected a few typos and also fixed a ton of bugs including Magic Defence on armour actually doing something
>>
>>3994886
It does, it's just extremely inconsistent with them. Especially in the first disc.

But yeah, LoD's translation is horrible.
>>
>>3996150
Steam only did the barebones route though. There is a list somewhere and it isn't long.
