Feedback regarding ongoing localization issues and inconsistencies in the Korean translation

[mint blade]

Hello,@tiny elk

I am a dedicated player who has been thoroughly enjoying Morimens for about six months. I am writing this message to bring to your attention some critical issues regarding the current Korean localization in the game.

Despite the involvement of an official Korean translator, major translation issues—specifically regarding consistent quality control and glossary management—remain unresolved. Below are some of the key issues that Korean players have frequently encountered during gameplay.

1. Lack of Consistency in In-Game Translation
   There is a noticeable lack of consistency across character names, skill names, skill descriptions, and world-building proper nouns.

Proper Nouns & Lore: Names of characters and lore-specific terms within the story are translated inconsistently. In some cases, they differ significantly from the original source text, which severely disrupts immersion in the game's otherwise wonderful world and storyline (e.g., the inconsistent translation of "Misisk University").

Skill Names & Descriptions: There are frequent discrepancies where a skill name differs from how it is referenced inside the skill's actual description text. Furthermore, frequent changes to skill names (most notably for Murphy: Fauxborn and Kathigu-Ra) cause heavy confusion. Changing established skill names unfamiliarizes players with their characters and degrades the overall gameplay experience.

2. Inconsistent Honorifics and Speech Tones (Polite vs. Casual Speech)
   Throughout the story, characters frequently switch between polite formal speech (Jondetmal) and casual informal speech (Banmal) without any logical reason.

An immersive storytelling experience is abruptly broken when a character who was just speaking formally suddenly switches to casual speech, or vice versa. In subculture games, a character's tone and manner of speech define their personality and lore. This inconsistency completely shatters character identity and collapses established character settings (most notably seen in the dialogue of Murphy and Murphy: Fauxborn).

These ongoing errors serve as a clear indicator that minimal glossary management and In-Game LQA (Localization Quality Assurance) are not being properly conducted, even after the onboarding of an official translator.

Since this issue can ultimately damage the trust between the player base and the development team, we sincerely hope you will listen to our feedback. As players who deeply love and enjoy this game, we kindly request more meticulous management to help the world-building and gameplay of Morimens truly shine.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Best regards,
A devoted Morimens player

특정 단어 통일 문제

한국에서는 중요한 문제인 존댓말 < > 반말을 왔다 갔다 하는 문제

이것도 단어 통일 문제지만 수호자 각성체의 이름이 왔다 갔다 하는 문제
비밀 지킴이, 수호자, 웨이크업 바디 등

한국 정서에 맞지 않는 번역
예) Solar Flare = 태양 플레어
이건 태양 플레어가 틀린 번역도 아니고 오히려 맞는 번역이지만
게임과 그리고 한국인의 정서 읽히는 단어 발음 등등

게임을 좀 해본 사람이거나 한국인이라면 태양 플레어가 아닌
솔라 플레어로 번역했을 겁니다.

이런 문제들 그리고 단순하게 단어 통일 문제는
코딩이 어떻게 되어 있는지 정확하게 저 같은 문외한은 모르지만

" " 안에 단어만 찾아서 바꾸면 되는 작업이면
이렇게 오래 걸릴 문제인지 솔직히 의문이 있습니다.
필요하다면 한국 커뮤니티 같은 곳에서 공유해서
오역을 유저들한테 찾아 달라고 부탁하는 방법도 있습니다.
분명히 금방 해결할 수 있는 문제입니다.

그리고 한국어 번역 담당자인 젤리님한테 직접 소통해도 되는지
소통할 생각은 있는지도 궁금합니다.

Specific word unification issue Honorific language <> An important issue in Korea The problem of going back and forth between informal words This is also a word unification issue, but the name of the Guardian Awakening body goes back and forth. Example of a translation that does not fit Korean sentiment. Solar Flare = Solar Flare This is not a wrong translation of solar flare. Rather, it is a correct translation, but if you are a person who has played games or are Korean, you would have translated it as solar flare rather than solar flare. These problems, and the simple word unification problem, are something that would take this long if you just found the words inside and changed them, even though outsiders like me don't know exactly how the coding is done. "" I honestly have doubts about whether this problem would take this long. If necessary, you can also share it in places such as Korean communities and ask users to find mistranslations. This is clearly a problem that can be solved quickly. I'm also curious if I can communicate directly with Jelly, the Korean translator, or if I'm thinking of communicating

具體詞統一問題 敬語 <> 韓國的重要議題 非正式詞彙之間的來回切換問題 這也是一個詞統一問題,但守護者覺醒機構的名稱來回切換。不符合韓國情感的翻譯範例。太陽耀斑 = 太陽耀斑 這不是太陽耀斑的錯誤翻譯。相反,這是一個正確的翻譯,但如果你是玩過遊戲的人或韓國人,你會把它翻譯為太陽耀斑而不是太陽耀斑。這些問題,以及簡單的單字統一問題,如果你只是找到裡面的單字並更改它們,就會花費這麼長時間,儘管像我這樣的外人並不確切知道編碼是如何完成的。" 「老實說,我懷疑這個問題是否會花這麼長時間。如有必要,您也可以在韓國社區等地分享,並要求用戶查找誤譯。這顯然是一個可以快速解決的問題。我也很好奇是否可以直接與韓語翻譯 Jelly 溝通,或者他是否正在考慮溝通。
