Just found out that Brazil also had Sega Meganet, something that I thought was only available in Japan at the time.

:D
Holy shit, Brazil is over. It will be worse than the US. Holy shit.
Finally bought SaGa: Emerald Beyond.
Hopefully I'll have some time to play it later next week. I'm still playing Metaphor too, but that's so slow-going that I think it will take me some months to finish it. SaGa: EB is, supposedly, shorter, at least in some routes.
I finished Esoteric Ebb like, two months ago, and I still want to write about it. Thank god I took some notes, otherwise I would've forgotten everything.
I just need _time_ to sit down and think and write about it.
It's comedic and medieval, of course, but trust me, it's great and also deals with complex themes.
This is solid advice.

Acho que uma habilidade essencial para traduzir videogame é conseguir escrever respostas de diálogos que sejam genéricas o suficiente para servir em múltiplos contextos, mas que ainda soem naturais.
Direto a gente precisa lidar com linhas soltas ou fora de ordem e isso salva _muito_ nossa pele.

@Sharksonaplane Thanks, Shark!
@ShaulaEvans , I have my carrd "professional website" and my personal blog (with some posts on localization) in my profile. Feel free to check them out!
You have way more control over the combat in Emerald Beyond than in Scarlet Grace, which is great. However, the story... exists, I guess. The delivery in Scarlet Grace wasn't great (and I didn't finish it to see if it gets better), but it feels more "solidly built" than in Emerald Beyond.
The combat definitely makes up for it tho. It's like a puzzle that changes every time and scratches the right part of my brain.
Felt something on my hand and, when I looked, a spider was trying to get inside my jacket. It's 15ºC tonight, so I think the little guy was searching for warmth lol
So I went to the balcony, slowly removed the jacket, turned the arm part inside out, and shook it a bit. The spider came out intact.
I think it's a type of jumping spider. It's less than 1cm in length and I've never seen any webs in the apartment, even tho I've seen some like it here and there every once in a while.
