How I completed Xiedu

scars of reality
My main goal was to ensure that the names and titles looked normal and didn't appear as a random collection of symbols and squiggles like "°ўї¦БрЛ№".
P.S. Although, I found the last message quite amusing :smile52:

Yes, that was an important reason for the translation. But the plot was also interesting.
I used Google Translate – some things turned out better (the sentences are more meaningful), and some worse (it couldn't translate all the names; Wind Moon is now Fengutsu, and there are sometimes slightly different versions of her name).

The maps are here. The Xiedu text is also there if you're interested in reading it.

And the jokes can be even funnier. I was translating Way Home. In one message, there's advice on how to play, including the desired skills. So, the machine translated "Intelligence" as "Scouting" :smile40: :smile40: :smile40:
And the player is like, "Damn, this is a Chinese map – I need to take Scouting!"
