I once quit playing a video game because its French translation (can't even talk about localization) was so bad.

Developers, please be aware that localization matters in a game experience. It really makes a world of a difference for players!

Subtitles aren’t just for deaf or hard of hearing players. They’re important for players in loud environments (who can’t use headphones), non-native speakers who rely on text to follow dialogue, and many neurodivergent folks who struggle to focus or process audio quickly. Just to mention few.

I am Yzërt, a frosted glass cake stand which can double as an alcoholic punch bowl if you flip it over. Customers rarely use it for cakes.
