Now that we're making box skirts instead of circle skirts, I can work on skirt designs that would have been really difficult to make work on a circle, like this forest glade design! #art #original
Mock-up of a Maya Kern Pocket Dimension skirt featuring a moody, glowing forest scene in shades of olive green and black. Tall silhouetted trees surround a softly lit forest floor dotted with tiny glowing lights. The image shows a model wearing the skirt alongside front and back views of the design. A note states that the mock-up may differ from the final product.

Beat Trails of Cold Steel IV after 160 hours so I can hop on the Fortune’s Weave bandwagon. PERFECT BIRD TIME
A man in black armor with long wavy ash blond hair and a slender, pointed face stares into the camera with the faintest smile. The flowery label “PERFECT BIRD TIME” appears over him, indicating that “support points with Noa [my player name] increased greatly.”

an old comic I didn’t feel like updating to be about ai but is still basically about ai anyway because we’ve always been living in hell
panel 1: a weird creep pokes at a laptop and says “Finally, through the aid of machine translation and google, I have removed the taint of woke western localization from this video game!”
panel 2: two anime boys say “Hello” “It is”
panel 3: “You must go there” “yes”
panel 4: “When the executive manager is downed, can you believe it?” “There is!” the weird creep sheds a tear and says “Ah, as the developers intended!”

I haven’t been too loud about it, but my three year anniversary is coming up in a few months. As a player I always loved the loc, so joining the team felt like a miracle lol, but it’s made me see exactly where I need to improve as a translator.

Happy FFXIV patch day! As Dawntrail comes to an end at last, I want to thank Kate Cwynar and all my coworkers for continually being a source of inspiration in our great field of localization. Eorzea truly wouldn’t be what it is without each and every one of you. 💚
Dawntrail 7.56 credits on the Nintendo Switch 2, listing the English localization team.

I will frequently consider the letterer when I translate manga--use shorter synonyms if the speech balloon is skinny, render an SFX or background word as two words if it appears on separate sides of the frame, etc. but I'm just guessing. it would be so much better if we could communicate.

Happy 13th anniversary to Final Fantasy XIV! This is just a handful of the pieces of art I made inspired by the game over the years, from 2019-2023, as many as I could fit in a post on here. You can see the progress I made in that time!

hell yeah
Put simply, translators must not cede a single inch of ground to machine translation. Translation is an art, not a merely utilitarian tool or necessary evil, and as such it is filled with choice and interpretation and subjectivity and craft and all the other things that make us human. AI-produced versions are not “translating” in any meaningful way so much as stealing and repackaging past human work, all while contributing to the false notion that objective translation is possible. What makes translation interesting is the human choice that has gone into it, and I do not want to spend one moment of my precious human life contemplating the “choices” an LLM has made – perhaps, if they are truly intelligent, they will one day make their own art for each other.
