Thread: Translation Japanese to English

@Reinheart, I hope you can translate this tearful speech that @Abriael put in his article. http://www.dualshockers.com/2013/08/...-final-speech/ (2nd video, I haven't watched the first yet, myself)

I don't speak the language and I was crying! I would love to know what he was saying.

Translation from the live broadcast from yesterday's launch event, where YoshiP gets all emotional.
Video source : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SWSMdCMyvE

y; This one is going to be hard for me, first off, before my message, Early Access was going on the past 3 days and for those playing on NA/EU server we had to place several maintenance which caused loss of precious play time, and since this event is being broadcasted to worldwide let me apologize, I am really sorry, our long journey is starting from here so I am hoping we will be able to recover this over those time.

y; and...

(silence)

(audience telling YoshiP ganbare “you can do it!”)
y; ummm, since I took over FFXIV it’s almost 3 years now, at the beginning, I haven’t touched the game much but was thinking we should be able to do this, and personally I love Final Fantasy and MMO
y; when I gathered all the staff to tell them that we’re going to rebuild the entire game, this was done only two days before announcing to everyone on December 1st.
y; I still remember that day, it was a room like this and there was a mixer (sound) on top and Soken was there adjusting the mic I was going to speak in
y; and I won’t forget how Soken was doing the guts pose (cheering him)

(- for those of you going WTH is guts pose? -> http://goo.gl/h5V8vU)
y; but honestly the dev teams feeling was just as same as everyone else, they were like “can we really fix this thing up?” or “it’s going to be tough”

(silence)
y; thanks to everyones support, earlier it was in one of the questions but it’s really hard, to build a MMORPG it normally takes at least 4-5 years, we wanted to get this out as early as possible to be able to do that, we had to plan it out without rushing
y; as Wada mentioned about operating a business, your role is a Tank, just like that I tried to a be a Tank and got it to where it is now.
(earlier Wada san mentioned he had to be a tank to take in everyones comments good/bad and just defend the company * didn’t go back and fix translation so just putting this here for ppl reading this right now.)
y; And I’m not the one that made FFXIV ARR, it was thanks to all the players around the world, the core dev staff here, and all other hundreds staff that couldn’t make it here today, thanks to you all, we are here today.
y; I wasn’t going to cry since today marks a day where we take our first step for Final Fantasy XIV, we only took the first step forward
y; I really believe that we really don’t have any time to take a break, dev team and myself are already working on the future patches
y; for those players from playing from previous XIV, we had times where community members left in the middle, and I believe there were other people that has been said many things from outside, myself being a MMORPG player, I really understand how hard that is.
y; for us it was a really short 3, 2 and half year but all the players, we really made you all wait and support us this long, I believe we were able to release a Final Fantasy title that doesn’t ashame it’s name (*that right usage there?)
y; from here on out, for an MMORPG there is no such thing as “complete” we will continue to keep on going with everyone.
y; this Final Fantasy XIV is a Final Fantasy XIV which was built with everyone, so we would like to continue doing so for this Final Fantasy for 5-10 even after that
y; we would like to continue operation without forgetting this moment here, please continue to support us, thank you.


f; okay, for the end we would like everyone to be happy/laugh and wave goodbye, we will see you all again in the next Producer Letter Live or in Eorzea
f; Sayonara~ (bye)
(audience clapping)
f; That concludes the mini (extra) producer letter live for Final Fantasy XIV ARR launch event in Shibuya, Hikarie.
f; Thank you all
y; Thank you very much

Good for him, He deserves it! This is his time to shine after all his hard work!

@u@ <3 SE team~!

Thank you for the translation as always.

Rep Post 08/28/13 Be able to hide emote text log, only show motion
Doing /cry motion without actually typing the text command but through emote widget with option to turn the text display off.

I would like to use lots of emotes but want something that can be used by anyone without using the text command. I would like to see the emote widget to have a option where it only does the motion without displaying the message.

こんにちは。
エモートに関しては、ログフィルター設定におけるエモートログの表示の有無に加え、
ご要望にお答えするように、エモートウィンドウでも可能になるような仕組みの実装を検討中です。
Hello,
In regards to emote, we are looking into having a log filter settings which can show/hide emote log, as well as have a feature like the feature you mentioned through the emote window.

Rep Post 08/28/13 Removing pet target from target circle

People are having hard time targeting NPC’s and other things as the pets/minions gets in the way of targeting. Devs are looking into addressing this issue by removing pets from the target.
This rep post doesn't mention ‘minions’ specifically but the people on the thread is also mentioning ‘minions’ so I would hope it applies to both.

Pets such as carbuncle becomes part of the target using target circle which makes it harder to target the actual person, thing you want to target, this is especially hard in such places where you have many Arcanists with their pets out.

はい、開発チームでも複数のターゲット対象がいる場合のターゲット選択の難しさを認識しており、
ペットを含めた対象をターゲットから外す方法について現在、対応を進めています。
Yes, dev team also acknowledges the difficulty for targeting where there are many targets. We are currently working on a method to be able to remove targets such as pets from the target.

Rep Post 08/28/13 Saving HUD Layout/Gearset info etc on server side.

Save gearset/hud layout/macros on server so you can play on any platform and load up the same environment.

In FF11 you were able to save the macro pallet on the server so you were able to share it between PC, PS2 and XBox. I would like this same option for FF14 where I can save the macro pallet and gear sets on the server side. Redoing the whole thing over when transferring to PS4 will be painful.

開発チームも複数のPCでのプレイや、PC／PS3間といったようなクロスプラットフォームにおいて、
HUDレイアウトやギアセットの異なるクライアント間での共有などを含めた
より円滑なプレイ環境の構築を目指しており、そのための方策について検討中です。
Dev team is currently looking into being able to share the HUD layout or gear sets between different clients such as between PC/PS3 so players has a better playing environment.

How to transfer Grand Company
I am Legacy player and when I switch to a different nation my rank started at the lowest.
I want to get it back but not sure how to do so, so if you could please explain, thank you.

グランドカンパニーは階級を「少甲士／少牙士／少闘士」まであげることで移籍できるようになります。
他のグランドカンパニーに移籍した場合、階級は最初からですが、
以前に配属されていたグランドカンパニーに復帰した際は、元の階級に戻ります。
For Grand Company by getting the rank of Second Storm/Serpent/Flame Lieutenant you will be able to transfer. When transferred to another Grand Company, the rank will start from the first, however the rank from already enlisted Grand Company will remain.
