Good day, ladies and gentlemen!

Warning: If you haven’t yet played Bad Manners 3.0 (here ), you might want to skip this poll, as we’re about to share one of the in-game dialogues below.

----------------

We’re calling on you, our esteemed Patrons, to lend us a hand with a decision!

Two translators have prepared their versions of the English text for a new section of our game, each with their unique approach.

We’ve already picked one for version 3.0, but we’re not entirely convinced it was the right call just yet.

Here’s what we’ve got:

Translator A: Prefers a calm and clear style, crafting text with the intent that even players who aren’t super confident in English can easily dive into the story. Simplicity and clarity are his ace cards.

Translator B: Goes for a vivid and colorful style, packed with juicy details and expressive turns of phrase. That said, he occasionally use specific vocabulary that might trip up non-native speakers.

So, what do you think, dear Patrons?

Do you lean toward the calm accessibility of Translator A, or are you more drawn to the vibrant expressiveness of Translator B, despite the potential language quirks?

Please pick one: A, B, or you’re fine with either.

Your opinion means the world to us, as it’ll help us make the game even better and more enjoyable for you.

The college administration and our lovely girls are eagerly awaiting your feedback, since your choice will shape how our cuties talk in future chapters. :)Translation samples are available at the link below.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XcQ8Su8B6uHGXHKx_tBS0XdRXhGr3IIc/view

🤔 to me Translator A is way too stiff and lifeless. He's just conveying the information. But it's not a technical manual, it's a comedy game after all. Idk who translated the first part of the game, but I tried to play it in English - and, in my opinion, it's so dull compared to the original Russian script. That being said, I think Translator B is trying to push his "juicy" style was too much, ignoring characters' personalities and context. But hey, I don't play in English so this poll is not really targeting me 😅
