A story of a Chinese translator for Silksong that completely disregarded their NDA and stubbornly produced Chinese localization that fans hated, resulting in only 52 % positive reviews for Silksong in China on release day (by Loek van Kooten):
“Don't be afraid, I'm just yawning”
Some people say lions sleep 22 out of every 24 hours. It's true we often see them lying in the grass, sometimes yawning. But it doesn't mean they sleep when we're not there. “Lions lying sleeping in the shade on a hot day are […] conserving energy during the least…

I can spend hours writing a considered comment in a standards discussion, to try and engage with what others said and remove the bits that aren't specifically relevant.
When others in the same discussion just paste what an LLM outputted, that drives me out of the discussion almost immediately. I don't even say it, I don't want to be the negative person. But jfk, this stuff is so destructive.

Das Bild zeigt einen detaillierten Blick auf einen Metallrahmen, der vermutlich Teil eines Fahrrads oder einer ähnlichen Maschine ist. Der Rahmen ist schwarz und hat eine glatte Oberfläche mit einigen Kratzern und Abnutzungserscheinungen. Ein roter Pfeil zeigt auf einen spezifischen Kratzer, der sich entlang der Kurve des Rahmens befindet. Im Hintergrund ist ein Bücherregal mit bunten Buchrücken zu sehen, was auf eine Arbeits- oder Hobbyumgebung hinweist. Der Boden ist aus Holz und es gibt weitere unscharfe Objekte im Hintergrund, die auf eine Werkstatt oder ein ähnliches Arbeitsumfeld hinweisen.

Homemade Vegan Coffee Ice Cream Sandwiches
Recipe: lazycatkitchen.com/coffee-ice-…
Coffee ice-cream sandwiches (vegan)
Coffee ice-cream sandwiches are a perfect hot weather treat for coffee aficionados. No churn and easy to make, vegan and can be gluten-free.Ania (Lazy Cat Kitchen)
NO CHURN ICE-CREAM
160 g / 1¼ cup cashews, soaked
210 g / 1¼ cup solid coconut cream* (see NOTES)
100 g / ½ cup superfine sugar*
2 tsp instant coffee granules
a good pinch of salt
2 tsp vanilla paste, optional
NO CHURN ICE-CREAM
Soak cashews in boiling water for 30 minutes or in cold water for a few hours. Drain.
Dissolve instant coffee in tiny amount of boiling water, 1-2 tsp ideally.
Place everything in a blender and blend until silky smooth.
Transfer to a large, flat container – ideally one that will allow to cut out six 6-7 cm dia (approx. 2.5″) circles. I used a silicone brownie mould. If not using a silicone container, line it with baking paper first for easy removal. Place a piece of baking paper on top of the mixture and freeze until solid.

I can't think of a Linux shell command that I use more often than `ls`. But these days, my `ls` is an alias for `eza`, a modern directory listing command written in Rust for Linux and macOS. It has more features, is faster and more user-friendly.

in reply to Alain Dellepiane • • •While reading I couldn’t help thinking “A lot of this sounds uncomfortably close to the whole ‘LOCALIZERS have RUINED everything’ discourse.” Like.. the article says “It reads like a medieval poem!” like that’s a bad thing, lol.
But I don’t know Chinese to second-guess, and more importantly this NDA stuff suggests such incredibly poor judgment that I can totally believe it spills over into the linguistic realm.
Alain Dellepiane
in reply to Matt T. • • •Leonardo
in reply to Matt T. • • •If it's really that (I don't speak Chinese to know), sounds like the same issue we have in Brazil, where soap operas depict "old Portuguese" as a hypercorrected and overly formal version of the language, full of weird syntax and empty flair.
Matt T.
in reply to Leonardo • • •Leonardo
in reply to Matt T. • • •Alain Dellepiane
in reply to Leonardo • • •There are many specific things at play there.
First of all, English is (was?) allowed to depart from the source in the first place because of its market relevance. JP companies go through that extra pain in the hope of a big overseas hit, which is unlikely in other languages.
Then there's the lower familiarity US audiences have (had) with translations in general, which pushed for heavier adaptation, often from people with more of a writing than a TL background.
Alain Dellepiane
in reply to Alain Dellepiane • • •On top of that, there's the US political discourse, where a common talking point of the right is manipulation and indoctrination through media. And since games sometimes get tweaked to avoid controversy, localization became and easy (and cheap) target for "woke agenda" fearmongering.
All this doesn't mean games don't get heavily adapted in other languages. That0s just a tool! It's just less common and it's only brought up when it goes wrong (like in this case)
Leonardo
in reply to Alain Dellepiane • • •Maybe I should've been more specific about what kind of discourse I was referring to.
Leonardo
in reply to Leonardo • • •Alain Dellepiane
in reply to Leonardo • • •In general, 90% of localization discussions online boil down to "I know more than one language, and I'm really smart". 😄
So in the best case scenario, it's about obsessing over one single line and how better they would have translated it - with the benefit of playing the whole game for months and no deadline, of course.
Nobody goes online to say "Yeah, that was a good job, professionally made considering the pressure they surely were under" 😆
Alain Dellepiane
in reply to Alain Dellepiane • • •The most comical for me is the website of a volunteer translation group making fun of the professional translation they "remade".
And all their examples are lines where the translation is entirely different from the source, because devs clearly misplaced it/changed it after the fact 😄
