Reposted by Elina Mâcon🦇 Tam🦇 | She/her #TranslatorsInTheCredits @tamslator.eurosky.social · 31/03/2026A general run down of what translating/localizing a videogame is (in most big agencies) 1. Have strings with no context and ID with numbers. 2. Have a query sheet to ask question that can be ignored. 3. The strings are scrambled and not in order. 4. No visuals (images, videos or game) 37429
