Did that guy lie, then?
Not sure what you mean, I was just wondering how you guys could confirm the picture above.
Can you confirm if the line near the start, from the asian version:
This will confirm if it is the same as the asian version or not.

Regarding the translation screenshot? No.
Didn't the Asian Version recently get a patch that changed some of the translation? It's still bad but fixed in some places, you'd need a line of dialogue from that update to compare.

Found another screenshot of the NA version.
Kayos has been playing a review copy in the OT and said the translation is fine, no penetrations in sight.
From what someone else said, penetration is still used plenty like this, the patch just fixed some grammar errors
Then we know that the script was cleaned up. Just not enough.

Pretty sure it didn't say penetrations, but as I didn't screenshot it I can't be 100% positive. I can confirm that there are differences however.
I've just finished the
Carnatux missions after the Ordeal intro.
I don't know, what you described can also apply to early-game MH (except for the 3 minute missions, which do get longer).
Amazing.
You could only replace your PS3 entirely with PSNow if you are very rich. Seeing as 90 day rentals are something like $15 and that is the maximum, if you want any games at all perpetually it is going to quickly cost more than a PS3 would. They really need to come up with a better pricing model or some kind of subscription.
That said, while I drool at the prospect of Dark Souls on my vita, I don't see how it would work that well. L1 and L2 are both equally important that I couldn't really see either of them being successful mapped to the back touch screen.
Oh man you referenced the exact reason I am really enjoying SS
. I love that the missions are quicker and that I can finally use CQC and not feel like a shitbox. Anyway, I am of the opinion that time to complete a pact should be proportional to type of enemies fought. The pacts with small easy enemies should be quick, but bosses and big dudes should be a bit longer. Which is exactly what I experienced in SS, with the first few pacts being quick and that pumpkin guy first "boss" taking a while longer.The isshak guy, saying that the west would see a different translation.
You can't replace a PS3 with PSNow. You can't even access the PSN content you already bought, you have to "rent" it. It's completely stupid.
It is a different translation, for worse.
It will get better, in terms of selection of magics and combination you will be able to pull off.

That is NA. I already have the asian copy also but haven't started on that.
I don't understand if you're saying this is a good or bad translation, because I understand this perfectly

It's different, but has similar issues with regards to grammar, spelling and word choice. Looks like they may have used the Asian English version as a base to work off.
Surely it isn't worse than the Asian Version.
The fact that it still uses backtics as apostrophes definitely proves that the Asian script was used as base.
That kind of error is typical for Asians (they don't understand that backtics aren't apostrophes) but not something a western localization staff would do.
This isn't a good thing and it really shouldn't be okay. Especially when they're charging such a premium price for the game here.

Hah agreed, I think the phrasing is part of the joke.
Oh I am definitely not saying it is a good thing, I am more commenting on how easy it is to get used to poor quality when you are exposed to enough of it, which is only a bad thing. Though to be perfectly honest I would prefer this game come out in NA with a bad translation than not at all, which I guess makes me part of the problem, but so be it.

Honestly, I'm ~5h in and other than laughing at a few of them for how they went wrong, I haven't really even given it a thought. It definitely hasn't had a negative effect on my gameplay experience, so I'm not seeing a big deal here.
Talk about lazy work. Now we know Hearts R will use that horrendous localization.

Will you share the link for your review once you are able?

Of course, though being that I like to complete a game before I review it, I might not be posting it on Tuesday. haha.
If so, don't forget, you have 2 areas to complete
Hollow Area (do it before you complete the Floor Clearing stuff so you can face a secret boss ) and the Floor Clearing sections.Both have their own credits as well.
Asia version of Hearts R doesn't have an English script so it depends on how good whoever they hire to do it from scratch or the quality control (lol) team is.

Care to shoot me some initial impressions come Tuesday?

I meant the localization from the demo shown a few months ago.

As soon as I'm able to, I'll answer any questions anyone has. That work?
Of course! I just want to get a feel for how the hell combat actually works on the vita, haven't gotten a good feel for that in the videos on YouTube. If you have anything on that I will try to remember to bother you for it
Tbf, that's also pretty early on.
And personally the conversation text wasn't that bad, my main issue with that was the attack names which were pretty awful. I like to think Sony is helping with this (due to JRPGVita stuff) and that is why it shows even more sloppily than any of the console titles.

Care to elaborate, or is this general snark towards the game (Not taking offense, just curious)?
So guys want to help me with alice tonight?
You can't really judge the game with how little you play it. The pacts get harder later on.
Invite.
I'm still recovering from jet lag. I might fall asleep in the middle. >.>
Terminology used in the series is not consistent in this game.
It's a shitty game.
I played the DS version. It was really, really lame. Dropped it after 5 hours in.
That's your problem you get no benefit from doing them unless you like the world.
sent!
Good enough!
I think he is talking about avalon side quest, not his debt pacts. Even by completing debt pacts, you do get his lore - it is great!

I forgot the SAO game was coming out this week. Everything I've read paints it as a good JRPG (I've seen mentions of FF12 which REALLY caught my attention) but there are also waifus and I hate most of the SAO 'heroines'. But Sinon seems great and there's a character voiced by Sachika Misawa so now I feel obligated to buy it because she needs more roles. Pls.

I'm concerned about Counterspy, too. I like the art style, but some of the previews (like the one you quoted) worry me.
I hope they aren't holding back reviews until the release date in an effort to gain blind preorders. If there were a few early reviews from reputable sources, then I'd probably have prerordered the game. Instead, the overall lack of reviews is causing me to keep my money in my pocket.
For all of the times that they've done the PSN Play promotions over the last few years, I think this is the first time that I haven't bothered to get any of the games.

Hold hands with Klein instead.
