The good news is that Mina the Hollower could be special. For Businessweek, this is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Wild story, a font service was bought out by a US company and now they are absolutely dogshit and it'll particularly heavily affect JP games, especially service titles.

Dawntrail discourse is exhausting, cause you’ll say something like “Wuk Lamat is nice,” and some guy with an AI avatar will be like “uhhh yeaaaaaah, have you seen the sub numbers? Have you seen how many words Woke Lmao says? We need to chase the English localization team with a big scary knife.”

Gamers: I hate micro transactions, they shouldn't exist.
Also gamers: every single game should get regular updates and new content for years after release, without me having to pay for it.
Personally I don't like the predatory microtransactions, but I think extra money for extra content is fine.

Serious talk for a moment:
If you are enticed by "choices matter" in games, you NEED to try Scarlet Hollow.
It's an awesome game in all aspects, and on top of that it has such a complex choice structure it MESSES WITH YOUR HEAD.
Please please please play it.

It's Halloween, and the entire first Episode of Scarlet Hollow is free for you to explore on Steam.
Its branching narrative web is so intricate that you'll see less than 15% of the game in a single playthrough.
So get lost for a bit, and see where the road takes you.

AI dubs aren't just an attempt to replace voice actors. Engineering, mixing, writing, directing, and QC are also cut, narrowed down to a single prompter.
When I write dub scripts, it is an exercise in musicality, translation, and personal life experience. A prompter understands none of that.

An article from Chinese news site GameLook has information on Hoyo’s new game Varsapura
Here’s a quote:
“the game team ultimately wants to create a humanistic sandbox… to generate dialogue with Al NPCs, but more importantly, to drive large language models to generate a network in the city.”

Their call centers are getting really stressed to their breaking points. Remember to be kind when calling, but persistent and insistent. Do not give them any rest.
They're reaching their limits but it's still a marathon! Not a sprint!
