  • Case Study: Player Etiquette in the Romhacking Scene

    Final Fantasy Series Translations

    The following reflects the personal opinion of clymax and does not necessarily reflect the opinion of any other individual of the FFV Central community or of the community as a whole.

    On an unspecified FF Discord, a player learns about a private mod of our community.

    He’s then encouraged to join by a member of the translation team of the mod in question.

    On FFV Central Discord, the player joins and dips immediately after obtaining the private mod.

    It’s a translation our team had been working on for over a year – for a mod that spans three roms.

    In contrast, the player’s total time spent on the server was not even three minutes.

    Back on the unspecified FF Discord, the player raves that the private mod he just took “fucking rules.”

    Maybe it does. Unlike his player etiquette though, which fucking sucks.
