@saratodaro.bsky.social📯Introductory post📯
Greetings! I'm Sara, #game #localization specialist from #English and #Japanese into #Italian.
I feel professional fulfillment when I manage to get Italian players to read dialogues and in-game descriptions without skipping.

@kazeori.bsky.socialOne thing I’m working on in JCVS: knowing when a Japanese dialogue line needs an edit, and when to leave it alone.
Sometimes there isn’t enough context to judge. Getting it to ask for that, instead of guessing, is tricky too.
@solsatelier.bsky.socialHere's what the taller text bubble for Elfie looks like.
I would have left a bit more of a margin at the bottom, however I had to take into consideration the player answer bubble so that it wouldn't cover any of Elfie's text.

@chiaraloqace.bsky.socialNormalize 👏 AI 👏 shaming 👏
🤢Gamers have made their position on this more than clear.
Do you think #localization is any different?
#Gameloc is part of development, and as such it deserves the same respect as graphics, writing, music and code.

@kazeori.bsky.socialIn Japanese dialogue, 「そうですか。」 with a stranger and 「そっか。」 with a friend can both fit the same character.
I’m testing how JCVS handles changes like these. I’d like it to catch slips without smoothing away the relationship behind them.

@kazeori.bsky.socialWhile working on JCVS, I keep coming back to the small things:
Is it clear what to enter? What a result means? What to do when something goes wrong?
I know the tool from the inside. I’m trying to make it easier to approach from the outside.
