I meant on NISA's end. I was aware of the fan translation for AT2 and think it's great they took the initiative to do what NISA failed. Which is more than likely going to be what happens with Ys VIII.

Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA |OT| Adol Christian and Dana's Big Hole
- Thread starter Tonton
- Start date
it should have the edited script but i haven't seen the edited script at all because i still need to get the game anyway
From what I understand, and please someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the PC version has the "improved" translation that the PS4 version got. It's better, still not great. The PC version is a buggy mess, however. Currently, the best version is the patched PS4 version.
Oh so the "improved translation" is still busted then, got it. God, what a mess. I suppose I look forward to playing the game in a year after the community does NISA's work for them.
This brings back a lot of bad memories. They also added game crashing bugs to one of the major stats menus to one of the Atelier Dusk games (might have been Ayesha but not certain). They DID patch that, at fucking least.
God, fuck NISA.
That list is not complete - games like Danganronpa 2 and V3 have issues too. Even the Disgaea games aren't free of occasional issues. They absolutely still do this.
As for Ys VIII, in its initial state it was widely regarded as one of their worst failings to date, including the stuff in that list. I'm glad most people have higher standards for localization than you do.
Yup, it's not complete. Pretty much every fucking game they release has something.
I think they do if you install through GOG galaxy.
The costumes got automatically installed for me. I had to install the free sets afterwards though, since I added those to my account after I'd already started downloading.
I see thanks, I got the dlc before installing, so I'll check to see them installed once downloading completes.
Out of curiousity I took a look at the Troubleshooting part of the Ys VIII Steam forum and...

Oh and I am not sure whether this is a some glitch/bug w/e exclusive to the PC version or also present in the patched PS4/Vita versions but *shrug*

French version has some exotic moments...
Seriously guys :
What is that ? How did you do this french version ?
To english people, if I had to translate from french to english, it would say :
"Good, I have emptied what I needed to, I feel better, time to sleep now."
Well, it's Laxia onscreen but the sentence is said by Sahad, actually. It's kinda exotic. Maybe you don't see the point, but in french it could be interpreted as really sexual.
It was hilarious, but still, how did you manage to do the french localization ?

Haven't seen anything else.
French translation was even worse than the English translation, and I don't think it got re-edited like the English translation
A patch is out on GOG, and it says it fixes controller polling. Is that the 8-way run issue, or is it something else?
It was causing crashes where it kept sending signals to controllers etc. 8way isnt fixed yet but most crashing issues are
Went ahead and requested my refund. It's a huge bummer, since getting into Falcom games 3 years ago I've been there day one on PC supporting all their Steam releases but this is just too much. I was actually pretty optimistic when I heard NISA was gonna bring Ys 8 to PC day one with the PS4 version and even though people warned about their translation record I thought "Well NISA knows Falcom fans on the west are nervous about the translation so I'm sure they'll try." It's a bummer and hell I can't say I hate NISA, I've been supporting their releases too. I love the Yomawari games and been there day one for them on PC.
Now I'm just gonna wait for when the game is patched up and I can grab it on sale. I honestly hope this is the last time Falcom works with NISA.

It's right when it's about to hit you almost last second.
The better technique to use is to Flash Dodge FIRST then when time is slowed stay in the active frames of the attack and weave a guard into it for both effects and the dodge is the safer option to do first when learning.
When you are in the flash guard or dodge state you take 0 damage/ hit stun from all sources and you can still apply the effect again dodging or guarding during an enemy's active frames of attack even if it would do no damage to you.

To note we are working on the 8-way stuff as well, just that crashes are taking immediate priority.
Going from 1800p to 960x540 (with all settings turned off) by doing the hex edit only gives me a 10-20 fps boost. I hate this port
It's the best action rpg ever made imo. It's just so freaking satisfying mastering every boss fight. The music, the gameplay speed, the huge island, all the characters with their own movesets to figure out how to make the most out of.
I never got tired of exploring the zones listening to the amazing music
zipping around with short hops and air dashes
Edit: I'm vocally very pissed about the pc port for good reason

That post also explains the slowdown from the fade-out and blur effect. Essentially it does something really dumb, where it sends the framebuffer to the CPU to make frame-by-frame by changes, but copying the same framebuffer again, and again. That's bound to kill perf on any system. I guess this might be faster on the PS4 where CPU and GPU are essentially on the same chip?

That's not it. The current translation is fine, while not able to reach Xseed's height. What most people complain about is the state of the port itself which then leads to the overall messy handling by NISA that includes the first fucked up translation.
Hummm. The GOG version seems fine (patched) I had only one crash in 2 hours (the very first encounter on the island). I disabled V-sync (I have a monitor with G-sync), I play in 2560x1440, not problem with framerate, no problem with sound. Translation though is terrible in French. Not the worst, but sometimes it feels wrong.
My only complain atm is the wrong buttons display on actions/UI, it's very disturbing to have the Playstation ones (I'm using an Xbox controller).

Game would look awesome in full ultrawide.
But at least it doesn't stretch and does black bars instead. which the game seems to be buggy with. If you ooen the local map when you close it off the mini radar gets rendered in the black bar area and flashes over n over till you load a different menu

Controller icons are determined by a setting in options as far as I remember, I had to go in to change it from the directinput numbers which it selected by default. Symbols is Playstation, Letters is Xbox and Numbers is the old directinput number style. As someone who uses a PS4 controller with DS4Windows all of the time (even though some games have directinput support, it's easier for me to just leave the program running all the time), I'm happy that they gave a choice as most games I have to put up with xbox prompts regardless of the fact I'm not actually using an xbox controller.
I'm really not sure why they chose Symbols, Letters and Numbers as the descriptors though, I mean they technically aren't wrong but I don't think it's particularly intuitive.
Found it, thank you so much !
[ and now I have several crashes at the very beginning of part II... tsss... I hope it won't last... or maybe just reboot the computer ]
NISA only worked on Ayesha. The other titles were localized by Acttil.
That big hole might be an important location for Dana.
PS Style and Xbox Style might be a better descriptor but imagine they want to avoid mentioning brand name hence Symbol, Letter, and Number.
After thinking about it, having button prompt selection as an option is a really good idea. Honestly more game should take this route.
They could have just used images of the button icons for the selection, though. It avoids branding and is more easily understood.
Lol, that's great. Wonder what causes that to happen, how bizarre.
For those having audio issues, I fixed mine by turning off monitor speakers and use external speakers only,
It was Shallie upon checking google. Oh well. NISA still sucks.
I was looking something in the og port company's other projects and lol

So bad ports are now called "special experience" got it.
The next step would be to lock the resolution at 544p now, if that's their angle. Go big or go home as the saying goes, right?

Geez. The excuses... lol
But that date in the screenshot... almost two year has this post?
