Ok, I'll just go ahead and make an Elminage thread now about translating them all! (Into English)

[Sigourn]

Knowing Japanese would be great but the truth is it's not worth any one person's time to learn the language if all you are going to do is play a handful of Japanese games (like these Wizardry clones), as opposed to playing a lot of the Japanese only catalog, read mangas, and watch hentai anime. Not to mention these games require a level of mastery of the language that you simply weren't demanded when playing Pokémon in English when you couldn't speak a word of the language, like I did when I was a kid.

Translations would be so much easier to come across if these games had the proper modding tools.

Learning a language is ALWAYS worth the time if you've the time and discipline for it.

Let me rephrase: learning Japanese isn't worth my time and same for the people who are in my situation. If you have the time and discipline for it, anything is worth it.

Japanese is retarded though; three fucking scripts all used simultaneously for one language.

 

[Viata]

1 hour per day and you are done. If you want to learn a language fast, then yeah you'll need more time, but if learning fast is not that important, spending 1 hour per day is pretty good. The more language you know, the better things get. As said by Hyperion, "learning a language is ALWAYS worth the time".
Besides, if you lack discipline, you suck as a human being and should just give up on life.

Am I right in saying Elminage Gothic 3D Remix for 3DS was never translated to English anywhere by anybody?

 

[Mustawd]

Man, I remember these days... when I still was deluded enough to think doing this shit was even remotely feasible. :D

You should pick this back up aweigh .

Seconded, so much. >:0

 

[Mastermind]

why not just do something you're good at, get paid, then hire a japanese translator to do the translation for you?

How much would that cost, I wonder?

Dunno but Japs generally cannot into English so I'd imagine Japanese translators are quite a bit more expensive than for an European language.
