I have translated all the dialogues of the Innkeeper and some of the park events and the first fight with Antoid soldier (I think before Gide blackmails you)
Some rants about translating it:
The Innkeeper was talking in old style Nagoya and Kansai accent mixed with old person style talking, which was very very hard to decipher. Gide was talking like in a mix of Kansai accent and a chinpira. some of the words are actually inflections and reference to other dialogues and word play.
So, I tried to translate this by following the flow of the dialogue through the RPGMaker XP trial. and it was still hard, particularly, Kate, with too much of her Uhn and Sou. Until I realized that Kate might be Goblin Slayer level of autistic, and I put "is that so", it made the dialogue so much sense. My disappointment of my translation comes from the innkeeper. I translated his Ogokuro as "Good work today" where I should have just put Good job. Also, since the text refered the Ogre as Ajin or demi-human, put there demi-human instead of going straight to Ogre.
Overall: I guess I got a little liberal with the translation, not hilariously machine translated SakuraGames, or the rewritten the whole game script like 8-4/working designs
Full disclosure: I should have maybe possibly finished this translation, but I was unable to because I broke my back falling down on my ass doing the laundry during the last few days of the RPGMaker XP trial. Also, I don't have a laptop, so I was unable to work
for at least 2 to 3 hours more when I was accompanying my mother to dialysis.
I may have fucked up: I may have fucked up some of the events when i was translating it. Too many times I have fallen asleep on the keyboard and may have fucked the events a bit. For precautions, please make a copy of the game before applying the files in the data folder.
