Localization Info Topic

Recommended Posts

With the North American release Fates nearing, I will be making some changes to the Fates subforum to accommodate the new trend of topics.

To begin with, several of the pinned information topics from the time of the Japanese release will be unpinned since most of the information should now be available at the Fates section on the main site.

However I haven't had time to add everyone's discoveries, so until I do all that, you can find them linked here:

also these changes to the international versions are really rubbing me the wrong way

now I'm worried that we might not get dual audio

Thanks, fixed!

No problem. Also, on the DLC page for the English version of Fire Emblem Fates site, it shows that Hormone has been renamed "Llewelyn" and I'm seeing reports that William was changed to "Lloyd"

Prepare to be assimilated.

Wait so Eponine=Nina...

Cue Fullmetal Alchemist jokes in 3... 2.... 1......

Honestly, every time I read "Eponine" I'd think of Epona, so it's whatever.

Get ready to be assimilated.

I was hoping Eponine would stay Eponine just because there were hopes I'd be able to use the accented E. XD

I think if I really got into Fates I could forget the content that was "lost in translation" due to localization but if it's possible, I'd much rather play the Japanese version. I am not going to pretend I can read kanji though but does anyone know...

Does the Japanese game have a setting for English text?

No, that's not how translations work. 99% of the time, you can't just flip a switch and all the text magically becomes English. People have to put 1000s of man hours into them : P

If you have a Homebrew or CFW enabled 3DS, you can play your Japanese cartridge with the English fan translation patch.

I guess you can update the OP with this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRknFRt5wOU) as confirmation for the skinship situation. Touching (and the dialogue during touching) is literally the only thing removed. 2D models, animations, conversations, bonuses, all there.

A compliation of localisation decisions from the Birthright Ch. 13 / Conquest Ch. 10 / Polygon, GameXplain Preview Streams

I've tried to remove redundancies from previously shown footages but some of them have probably showed up before.

(I'm using the Name Chart for FE Fates in Serenes Forest to cross out redundancies)

Note that this list doesn't aim to be complete; I very well may have missed something from the stream, but can't be bothered to look at it again and again...

Perhaps a bit more difficult to pick up are things that HAVEN'T changed (apart from basic FE stuff like iron sword)

I'll write down the few I can recall for the moment

- Throwing Club

- Fimbulvetr

- Partition (terrain/map structure)
