--- Quote from: N-Forza on April 22, 2015, 09:16:28 AM ---A lot of people are making the assumption that this will be a localization, when the only thing Playism has said at present is that it will be available in English-speaking countries. Admittedly, it's a fair one to make, but it might be affecting people's expectations. --- End quote --- Their wording is very careful about saying that they're bringing to the "English speaking territories," rather than bringing it in English, yeah. IIRC they got asked about it and the result was that they would have some sort of news about translations at some undefined point in the future, so I'm guessing it's still in negotiations, but they managed to confirm that they got the series itself to bring over and were ecstatic enough to announce that. Honestly I'm more interested in what this means for derivative games than it does for the originals. There's a few games I would very much like to see brought over, for their gameplay moreso than their story. |

My impression is that ZUN would be extremely reluctant to allow a translation because he likes to keep careful control over his works and with a translation he can't personally judge how faithful it is. |

Also out next week, so not a long wait to see on translation etc. |
