OPERATION 'AROUND THE WORLD' IS A GO Atlus is currently under media blitz for "localization problems" that are, by admittance of the critics themselves 'only a few lines per character.' Apparently though, this makes it the worst thing in the history of game translations, please ignore the steaming heap that is Fire Emblem, nothing to see, please disperse. So, we, as fans of the Persona series, and I mean this, ACTUAL FANS OF THE PERSONA SERIES, need to let Atlus know we're not only cool with how the game turned out, but that the localization doesn't have the "widespread" problems the journos are saying it does. Load up the old email cannons, we need to fire them up again. Email Atlus, show them your copy of the game (by uploading a picture of your save, where you are in the game, or your physical copy with a receipt to an image hosting site), and tell them just how much you've been enjoying Persona 5. We can also do this shit on (((social media))). If you still have a Twatter account that is cancer-free, shoot them a tweet with your copy of the game saying thanks and how much you appreciate them/enjoy Persona. For bonus points, and maximum effectiveness, feel free to drop an archive link to one of the articles (or that autistic 'Persona Problems' site) and reference it specifically. We need to let them know that as gamers, Persona 5 is going in the direction we want. We can't let these cronyist bastards in the clique be the voice that pushes for more bullshit localization so their friends can get hired. I had originally said to reference FE in your messages and say it was the OPPOSITE of what we wanted, but I'm not sure it's the best to slam a game unrelated to Atlus' productions in an email praising Altus. I'll leave that up to your judgements, one anon >>12389523 really seemed to think it was a good idea in one respect or another.

DO NOT COPY THIS DIRECTLY, otherwise it'll look like some sort of bot thing, and a few eyebrows will get raised. Remember to personalize your messages a bit, PR people LOVE knowing they're getting honest feedback from a consumer. >I am sending this message as a fan of the Persona series. >(Here, you can talk about when you became a fan and why you became a fan) >I am currently enjoying my playthrough of Persona 5, however I've been online recently and noticed some unwarranted critiques of the game's localization. >(You can archive link to a specific article here, if you want) >As a fan of the series, I'm writing to let you know that the 'popular' critique going around amongst game journalists, is not only simply their opinion, but it couldn't be further from the truth. >(Go on to praise the writing, the translation, and simply just keep talking about why you like the game.) >(Give them a thank you here, tell them to keep doing what they're doing, and thank them again once more for their time) >If you can, include a link to your image of your copy of the game, either at the end or near the beginning Welcome to the newest OP under the TD umbrella anons. Keep fighting the good fight.

>>330502 Adding some of the related pics from the posting in the /v/ thread.

Hey guys, if you played Persona 5 and want to write to Atlus, make sure to emphasise that you like and want translations to respect the original intent of the creators but to take more time to edit and proofread. Do request a patch to fix errors and sub untranslated lines in the animated cutscenes, etc.

Remember to emphasize localization is inferior to translation too with something like "Translations are always vastly superior to localizations and help us experiment the game the closest possible to what was intended by the original creators. You can count me as a fan and faithful customer forever as long you keep making quality games like this and avoiding localization in your products."

>>330505 >first pic I'm amazed someone can miss the point this hard.

>>330505 I'll take translation over localization.

>>330517 We all would. You have to wonder who would disagree…

Anyone got the polls about the localization?
