    I speak french and... I know they're not supposed to do literal translation and they're supposed to adapt it to the target audience, but I'm 5min in and it's already totally wrong. I mean, compared to what the english translators do, I don't feel targeted at all :')
    "Le nouveau" meaning "New guy" is supposed to be the same as "Merc".
    After the fight has started "You're coming with us, nice and easy." and "Don't think so" were translated to "There! An intruder! (I'd like to remind you the fight had ALREADY BEGAN) Put your hands up!" and "I've got other things to do."
    Jessie's "Have fun!" was translated to "We're counting on you!"
    "Holy shit!" was translated to "BE GONE (THOT)"
    "So what's SOLDIER boy's deal? Is he one of us now? He's got balls, this, uh... uh... what was his name again?" --> "Say, ain't it weird how a soldier helps us to fight his own side? (Notice how it's less clear that it's Cloud they are talking about) Did he give up on his career? (Because they couldn't make a shorter sentence, the hole idea of "he's got balls" was removed) Oh what's his name again?"
    To which the dude responds "Cloud. Cloud Strife. And he isn't a SOLDIER anymore." and in French: "Former soldier, he said. and his name is Cloud. Cloud Strife."

    • @BewareTheLilyOfTheValley
      @BewareTheLilyOfTheValley 4 года назад

      Except for the "Be gone" line, I actually think the rest is alright. This said, English is my only language but I watch anime and of course English dub actors have to deal with this all the time. I say so long as the spirit of the conversation remains, it's fine. Or rather, the intent. Oh, and I don't like it if a line is removed to make something more family-friendly or conservative if that wasn't what the original line was aiming for (you also said they removed Jessie's line about Cloud's balls, lol!)

    • @BewareTheLilyOfTheValley
      @BewareTheLilyOfTheValley 4 года назад +2

      FINALLY, someone else here agrees!! Switch the sexes and there's absolutely no way the world would've been fine with just how much a guy didn't take no an answer and actually threw his arms around a woman. But because it's a woman doing the harrassing, nobody has said anything. I'm not calling for pitchforks and torches but c'mon, people...no means no, even for men.
      Cloud really got angry that last time when he snapped, "You're that desperate?!" And still he was overall nicer to her than what she deserved at that point. He's doing what we women very stupidly do...he's being nice to not hurt her feelings even though she's utterly disrespected his. Except we often do it to hopefully try to salvage things with relationships, hoping maybe this person will understand and get it together that you're not wanting that kind of attention (just yet, if at all) and you just want to go slow, be friends, or nothing at all. We pull our punches to be nice and not be called a bitch. At least Cloud has the added benefit of being stronger than her to actually push her away.
      ...Sorry, this wasn't supposed to get so dark, lol. And I know I'm carrying residual feelings over from the last person I dated who truly did not want to accept that my no meant no...and I was too damn nice to cuss them out the way they deserved. So maybe I'm projecting here a bit with Cloud.

    I guess the caption stays the same regardless of the language their speaking in, but as a french, it's great to see other people enjoying our language.

    As a French speaker, this is litterally (and I mean *litterally*) how I learned the english language.
    And if a dumbass with a terrible work ethic like me could learn an entire language in a bit less than two months, you could definitely get to at least a semi-conversational level by playing through the whole game like that (and perhaps a few researches on the internet)
