Comment on A Steam dev is deleting his own game after girlfriend made him realize AI is bad
orochi02@feddit.org 7 hours agoI think personal translation is fine tho. Heck partly even commercial translation if you would have just went with MTL or google translate in the First Place. But as you said if you really wish to translate intent too then hiring a decent translator is key especially when the translation carries some intent or idiom etc. That is not easy to translate to another Language.

There’s a really big issue in the scanlation scene of people putting up paywalls for MTL scans that don’t even translate sfx, and hobbyists that take a great deal of care in getting every bit of cultural nuance right for free.
You’re never gonna beat the MTLers, people just read whatever comes out first without care for quality. Why even bother putting up with this BS anyways?
