First of all, grats on being first to comment! lol Secondly, I would, but the issue is the first draft of D:BB has 650,000 words. So, I do not think most people on Earth can create as much content as I do in terms of writing. I am hopeful that by final release, AI will be at a level where I can tell it to simply generate language translations for every language.
I do appreciate the offer very much! And I have channels in my Discord for several languages, but over the years many translators have learned that the amount of writing I do is so prolific that they burn out trying to do it lol Thanks again, though!
Thank you for your reply, so you mean, you will update your game that often and add a lot of writing so it will be impossible to reach your pace even if someone tries? 🤔
Yeah, pretty much, the sheer quantity of my writing has gotten rid of over 30 different people that had offered to translate for me. But, it's fine, like I said, AI will do it all for me someday, instantly. Even now, with some foreign fans, i tried a few prompts I wrote into ChatGPT and it did so well, even changing American idioms and cultural phrases into those of the particular country I was testing, that the natives were utterly shocked.
Also, not to get into technical stuff, but the way Renpy translation files work on my games is such that if I ever edit or change a sentence, word, anything in the text, it will break the translation for that page unless Mars (my fan that helps me with programming) goes back and changes the translation. So, even if I wanted humans to have to translate my work, I would not even have you begin until the entire project is finished anyway. But yes, this whole game's first draft written out is 650,000 words.
