No, you don't lol.
It's a game that runs on Flash, source code is universal for the platform. The code can be written in Chinese for all it cares, it runs the same.
How games handle translations is through Image files and text reference keys that are called upon by the code to appear in certain places. Translating merely requires updating the images and the reference do*ent line by line. Sometimes faulty translations even come from the fact that the translator had no context to put the translation into because they are merely staring at a do*ent with random lines of text to translate.
There are thousands of lines of text to translate for most games but they can and have been done in short periods of time. In fact, Rise of Mythos got its community involved in the process and had the entire translation done in a week. Complete with proofreading and revision.
Well I didn't know that because I never worked with something that simple. My fault for self teaching a different form of coding when I was younger and not learning about flash games. I'll take the L here.
However, that doesn't mean you have to promote the whiny attitude that quite a few of you have surrounding literally everything in the game. It's the same people that complain about every aspect from events to progression and even when steps forward are made find something new to bash. Most often when a game is released the better version is marketed to its native country first, especially in the case of Chinese corporations who don't care about copyright laws due to the nature of their government systems. In reality we're lucky to see half the stuff they make over there come across seas. If you want to play the more advanced version then its quite easy to just use google translate and start in the Chinese server. If you'd rather whine and complain about how there's not enough to do then you need to either wait like everyone else or find a new game.
Even if you did though the same things will likely happen, just as they did in UN and Bleach Online. Players hit a cap and played with what they had until a new one came around, and for those we often waited months. Meanwhile, we get new content updates every week and in spite of quite a few people not even coming close to that first cap, talks of the level cap being raised have already started circulating. Yet, somehow, they're are still floods of complaints. This post was last edited by Rozuka at 2016-8-30 13:07
