Sorry but this brilliant thread didn't get nearly enough recognition, care to have a read & share it? ๐Ÿค (Also yes there's a typo in the first sentence: it's just our CM graciously proving that we don't use AI. You're welcome.)
In case you didn't get enough celabrations lately, here are From the Void GAMING AWARDS 2024! ๐Ÿ† ... A year when nothing went wrong and nobodyโ€™s life was ruined in the name of profits by greedy and overconfident executives! Buckle up, here we go ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿ‘‡

"In my experience, itโ€™s essential to treat the translator as part of the writing team." Wise words from Anthony Jauneaud (@actezero_games) in a beautiful article by @riotloc, tackling the crucial writer-translator relationship. A great readโžก๏ธlinkedin.com/pulse/time-travโ€ฆ
