Surely you are not being serious?

Are you new to playing Japanese games.

So, to give my fellow in GAF another example of stupid localizations on Japanese games, I'm currently playing Tales of Arise, there's a scene where the three girl in the party are having a chat and one of them says something like "I'm going back too, I don't want the guys to think something weird", but they put in the subtitles something like "I'm going back too, I don't want the men thinking they are in charge". Yeah, keep localizers away from Japanese stuff, at least I'd wish there shit stayed in America only, but yeah, that's unfortunately the only option we have... At least this is the first stupid change I've seen so far

Just got to this part in my playthrough and this really "rub-a-dub-dub'd" me the wrong way. This could have been avoided if the localizer did a more direct translation but they believed they were a creative genius and felt they had to insert their very punny puns. What sucks is this is a voice acted line and would be hard to change.

This is beyond embarrassing...

Rather than being boner inducing, localizations like this are the leading cause of skeletal dysfunction.
Please laugh, I am funny.

I’m just wondering to myself, how much would I hate this insufferable bunch of douchebags if I understood and played in Japanese? Would it be 80% as much as I do having played in English?

I’m sure I will ponder this frequently whenever I’m sitting on the can.

Let’s not get crazy, Edge Maverick and crew sound awful in Japanese as well.

The localisation of Kainé's Dream in Neir sucks too.

I appended the laughing emoji to your post, not because it was humorous but from abject pity.
