Jennifer O’Donnell, ship captain and A+ translator at J-En Translations, hosts a lovely podcast series featuring chats with localization professionals discussing their favorite works in the field, and she was gracious enough to invite me on the show!
The subject, as one might imagine given gestures at myself all of this, was the phenomenal re-localization of Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions, which initially released on the PSP back in 2007. While I generally try to avoid spoiling things, it’s safe to lay bare the thesis of our conversation: it’s real good.
Hop on over to Jenn’s website to give the show a listen, and by all means, let me suffer your slings and arrows as I insist that the “Blame yourself or god” line" is better in the new version. ‘Tis your birth and faith that wrong you, not I.
