Qué ganisimas le tengo al The Scroll of Taiwu. Es un juego chino sobre crear tu clan y defender tu tierra de peligros ancestrales. Hay que gestionar al clan a lo largo de generaciones que van naciendo y muriendo y tiene una mecánica muy intrincada de criar, elegir y nombrar herederos, cuyos stats están en parte fuera de tu control.
Esta todito lleno de mitología, folklore y tradición, muy los vídeos de la chica de @slavin, pero lo malo es que está entero en chino clásico. Había gente metiendo prisa para que lo traduzcan y uno ha explicado en esta maravilla de comentario cómo el idioma, la expresión y la poesía es parte del juego y la traducción no es nada fácil.
>Let's take the Chinese on loading screen as an example again:
>"加载之术，或遇伪死，此乃龟息之术也，望静候之⋯"
>If I have to literally translate it to normal English, it will means almost gibberish like this:
>"The loading skill might sometimes playing dead, this is also the slumbering skill, please calmly wait..."
>Unless I have to make it totally understandable with modern terminology like:
>"Please wait patiently while the game is loading, it's normal if it is freezing."
>And if I translate it to Old English that is somehow understandable, like most of the fairytale books in post-Renaissance era, the job of translation would be difficult. I tried my best to translate and it will be like:
>"Pending shalt jest with death,
>'tis normal swa let it rest.
>With patience 'till it awake,
>let joy upon thee to play."
>I mean, it's important to have a poetic feeling more than the historical-related use of literature, if not careful it will totally twist the original meaning.
>So my approach would be a poetic Modern English:
>"Slow loading could be a trick,
>because death is what it mimic.
>Have patience, let it awake,
>and be ready to play."
>I was buried my head for just translate this line for a whole hour. It's really not easy at all if we take Classical Chinese too seriously.
