addedBuilding the localization system for the whole game took me more than a week… but once it was in place, adding each new language took less than an hour. Me = very satisfied :’)
changedI started with these 3 languages because they’re the ones I speak, and I really wanted my first game to be accessible. If Final Fantasy IX hadn’t been translated into Italian, I probably wouldn’t have played it—and maybe I’d never have discovered that magical world.
