"The Steam White Knight Brigade are now claiming this response is fake because "Steam support never talks like that". Funny. I've had support tickets where Steam support are this blunt. It really sound like they are clutching for any straws they can find. Ahh so it's only a woman's behind that's not allowed Got it. On a serious note this makes us sick. It's time to end this. https://t.co/eIdZtWtBzK Ahh so it's only a woman's behind that's not allowed Got it. On a serious note this makes us sick. It's time to end this. https://t.co/eIdZtWtBzK"

"Well seems it didn't last long before idiots in the west decided Japan can't have nice things.

"Such useless localisers are gatekeeping more skilled translators capable of faithful translations out of games because we intimidate them. They know if they let us in they'd be out the door within the year. "Translating Final Fantasy is hard" = Localizers trying to justify why they continue to butcher Japanese scripts rather than translate them faithfully into English. https://t.co/EY3aFd4SM8 "Translating Final Fantasy is hard" = Localizers trying to justify why they continue to butcher Japanese scripts rather than translate them faithfully into English. https://t.co/EY3aFd4SM8"

""Malfunctions" and "higher than expected traffic" is a funny way of saying that a certain foreign element flooded the platform with exceptionally obscene material. Really wish once in a while Japanese companies would be explicitly honest about what has happened.

"America's Nintendoesn't when every one else does again. Well given who's in charge over there now we all saw that writing on the wall.

"This is why certain Square Enix games never reach expectations in terms of sales. People don't want a game butchered to the point they can't tell where it came from. They want a Japanese game that is unapologetically Japanese. Localization teams have been given too much power at Square Enix. They should have absolutely no say in the creative process whatsoever their only job should be faithfully translating the Japanese script to English. A game created by Japanese developers *should* feel Japanese https://t.co/Z1L6cCenJK Localization teams have been given too much power at Square Enix. They"
