Kaga’s comment: I did take that into consideration. Grannvale was based on Germany, Agustria on France, Thracia on Romance countries like Spain, and Silesse on Scandinavian countries like Sweden. Isaach was based on Central Asia, while Verdane was based on barbarian nations, such as Persia². Thracia was modeled after Spain, while Leonster, in the north, was modeled after Italy. That’s why Leonster appears more highly-civilised and polished in comparison. ...Okay, that's less cool. But, eh. We get to claim Travant and Hannibal. I'd say we still come out on top.

BrightBow Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) Also, the names of the replacement units in Shadow Dragon were simply German words too. Starting with Eins, Zwei, Drei...etc. You know, like the Dark Warlords. So the German localization simply translated them into Japanese, at least as far as I could tell. So it starts with Ichi, Ni, San... etc. Edited May 10, 2021 by BrightBow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venger_06 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Just played Cold Steel 3 demo. I didn't really understand the combat system, but it looked cool at first. More importantly, I finally found out who's the character in Eclipse's pfp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrightBow Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Still, I think the single weirdest thing about the German localizations is that they decided to get creative with the promoted class names of Eliwood, Hector and Lyn in what was otherwise clearly a very straight translation of the English script. Eliwood is Edelman (Noble Man) and Hector is Herrscher (Ruler). As for Lyn, her case is really weird. She became Meister. Which would be Master but... it's the masculine form. And keep in mind, the German translation genders ALL the class names. Bogenschützin, Rittmeisterin, etc... So that a class that is exclusive to a specific female character is using the masculine form is... strange. On a side note, Rittmeister is most certainly a cooler and less overused title then Paladin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since unlike other classes, there is no second version of it. And of course her previous class "Lord" is also masculine. ...that being said, considering this is the part where they decided to go beyond doing a paint by numbers English to German translation, I would have guessed that they understood the context in which those particular text strings are actually used in-game.
