Main entry

Orkastle / Orkastle (upcoming console-style RPG by Howard Blast, estimated first chapter release 2028)

On literature

A higher-level understanding of Japanese gives a better understanding of the narrative structure of works written in Japanese -> it's very easy to overstate this, but, yeah, to some extent I think it's correct. good translations of a work are possible for works like video games and manga, where you only really need a high-level understanding of English to pull it off. audiovisual works often tend to suffer because people who aren't familiar with the Japanese language keep butchering the voice acting. what you actually need is an understanding of language which is as good as the creator's so you can replicate the same level of language use in another language. that is difficult to achieve, though possible, and that is why a lot of things sound better in their original Japanese, or in their original English before they were translated into Japanese; it's really just because translation is hard, not because the Japanese language is special. but, yeah, nothing is wrong here except being oddly specific by mentioning the Japanese language.

Howard Blast's theoretical errors

If I don't have a high reading level at English, then Toby Fox writing colloquial dialogue is bad ^[1] -> no. the ability to write in colloquial language to portray realistic characters is a form of language mastery — period. it's fair to knock Toby Fox for not "really" speaking Japanese, but you cannot both do that and have a "Toby-level" mastery of English. ^[2] you have to pick one.
