There's something... inexplicably good about 7th Saga. I'm not sure what it is, exactly, and I've seen others not be able to figure it out either, while still admitting they *feel* it. If you know, you know.
I mean, here in Denmark I am so sick and tired of going into a souvenir store with a Swedish casheer speaking English to me because she believes we can't communicate otherwise, when in reality Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian are so close together most of us understand each other fine. But noooo... we immediately default to English when languages scare us.
That's one part. The other, and this is not the fault of the ordinary American citizen, is that English is taking up more and more space in different countries and it creates resentment. I think the main reason for this shift is the Internet. American content dominates because it's the largest and richest Western country (most of us don't speak Chinese or Indian languages so we won't watch that content), which has a strong influence on people around the world since we spend so much time online. Even a forum like this is an example of it. I think English has its place as an "international language" - we probably always need one of those, and it's English now. But when the local language loses too much ground in the real world it bothers a lot of people who grew up with it and also enjoy their local culture.
Yeah thats very understandable. I think its good for people to take pride in their national culture/language/etc.
I had no idea about your culture but it seems like a very weird shit. I guess people using English to "don't assume" if people are from Denmark or Sweden or Norway because I had an experience that this kind of stuff offends people from many parts of the world. Really weird shit like using "they" instead of "he" and "she" lol.
Well among many countries ok with subtitles Americans and French are the one demanding dubs a lot and they are okay with it even if the dubs is really shitty, and then they feel entitled to ruin the original material for the sake of a pointless dub. For example:
Not dissing it, just sharing my experience
As I said, I don't think Americans in general "demand" dubs or anything else. We make our own media to a greater extent than probably any other country and just because dubs exist doesn't mean Americans are out here sending emails and "demanding" things.
If you feel my culture is "repulsive" thats your opinion and you're entitled to it.
And then hating Americans!!! lol
Looks a lot like Kingdom Heart.
If you can get past the awful attempts at humor, the sequel was actually a decent, Konami inspired beat 'em up
see, if we're talking obscure pixel-art point and click games, this is another solid pick:
