Thread: Translations (JP to English)

What I love about Yoshida is that he's so open-minded. Tanaka, while a genius in some ways, wouldn't even consider adding stuff like swimming and jumping.

"Open-minded" is not it. He is simply more forgiving when it comes to borrowing ideas.

On the other hand, he seems incapable of leaving the current comfort zone.

What really sets him apart from Tanaka (or doesn't) is whether he manages to make the development process more efficient in the long run. That's a substantial benefit worth the shake-up in management. Whether he can do it is yet to be seen.

ディスカッションありがとうございます！
吉田の言葉が足りなくて、誤解を招いている部分があって申し訳ありません。
Thanks for the discussion!
I'm sorry if I mislead people from the lack of words from me.

「Assassin's Creedレベルのフリーランニング」については、ゲームデザイン的にもコスト的にも
実装する想定はありません。ただ、他のMMOでできるような移動導線は、可能ですし十分ありですよね。
ジャンプを駆使して、コリジョンの端にひっかっけ、高いところまで登ったりしましたねえ…
We are not planning to implement free running like "Assassin's Creed" due to game design and cost. But movements like MMO is possible. Making good use of jump and making hook on edge collision and climing up high areas... (he's not talking about FFXIV, most likely talking about another game like AC.)

特に泳ぐについては、まだまだ先ですが、拡張パックレベルで水中も作りこんで、
トライしてみたいと思っています。「泳ぎながら○○」ってアニメーションすごい数必要ですがｗ
EQの水を使った仕掛け、当時超新鮮でした。
（何度も溺れてドザ○モンになりましたが…　噴水でスキル上げしたなあ…
それ以前にwoodelfでスタートして落下死しまくったけど…）
水中神殿レイドとか楽しいですよね。泳ぐだけじゃなく、水中もセットで！と思ってます。
Swimming is long long away but would like to try under water in expansion.
{Swimming and XXXX} type of animation requires lots of animation lol.
It was really fresh (new) how EQ used their water.
(Drowned many times but skilled up fountain (swimming?)skill... but before that died from falling a lot starting from woodelf...)
Thinking Underwater Shrine raide is fun, not only swimming, but set with underwater!

He's just talking casually with players so don't take this one seriously... lol
Just think of it as far future... we might get to swim, not any time soon most likely.

yeah its great stuff, even if just talk atm, but i would love as an ls to swim through a cave to some sort of temple dungeon, would be so cool!

Continued from last translation - he posted another right after player response to his other post.

あー、丁度良かったです。やっぱりこれって望まれないですかね。
実は悩んでいたところです。フォールダメージで首折れて死んじゃうのは無いにせよ、
登るのはどこまで皆さん許容かな、と。最初は皆やると思うんですが、いずれは沈静化するとして。
でも、景観の美しさも大事にしたいところですし。ご意見貰えると嬉しいです！
I was worried about this, good that it's not hoped like that.
Can't break your neck with fall damage, but how much height allowed to climb, think everyone will try it at first but soon it will quiet down. But would like to keep the beauty of the atmosphere, would like to receive your feedbacks!

From a thread where players were talking dev's need to add more fun stuff in the game like older FF series like the dev room in FF4 and stuff. and YoshiP responded.

吉田も含め開発には常々「楽しく作らなきゃダメだ」って言ってます。
自分たちが楽しめなきゃ、お客さんに楽しんで貰えるわけがないので。
当たり前のことなのですが、スケジュールに追われ、開発が平行化され、
細分化していくうちに、忘れてしまうこともあります。忘れちゃダメなんですが。
I am telling everyone in dev including myself "Have to have fun while making"
If we can't enjoy, the customer wont enjoy either, sometimes we forget when we're pushed by schedule or gets too detailed, but we can't forget this. (to have fun)

相変わらずスケジュールに余裕はないですがｗ、
今上がってる企画は、しっかり「愛を持って」提出されてきているので、
そうした「世界が生きている感覚」や「愛」は少しずつ感じて頂けると思います。
最初からだろう！と言われれば、返す言葉がないのですが、
開発本来の楽しさを忘れずに、アップデートを続けますので、引き続き宜しくお願いします！
There isn't much room in schedule lol
But all the project that's coming up submitted "with love" , with this little by little should be able to feel "Lively world" or "Love"
Can't respond back if told "From beginning!" (should been this way from start)
We are continuing to update while not forgetting to enjoy developing.
Please continue your support!

P.S.
火曜日にプログラマチームが某レイドモンスターのブレスで全滅して涙目になってました。
修正確認のはずが、意地になって攻略してたので、これも愛と言えば愛ｗ
