    • Apresente-se à comunidade Fractured!
    • Discuta Fractured e deixe-nos saber suas sugestões e idéias.
    • Tem uma dúvida? Pergunte aos desenvolvedores do Fractured e à comunidade!

    translator note: the literal translation for "question" is "questão". "dúvida" is the translation for "doubt", but in portuguese, in this context, they are synonyms and it's used more often this way.

    • O MMO Dinâmico
    • O primeiro MMORPG em Sandbox de mundo aberto com combate de ação, ambientes interativos, sem grind, economia orientada pelos jogadores e colonização do universo. Junte-se à revolução!

    translator note: any regular brazilian MMORPG gamer call the action to kill monsters repeatedly "grind" or "grindar" as a verb, although this neologism does not exist in formal language. The noun should be something like "grindação", "grindagem" or "grind" itself, but again, it's a word for internet only. The formal translation for the noun "grind" is "moagem", but only a newbie and/or google translator user would use this in a MMORPG context. So this is a decision on whether going more formal or going for a MMORPG player oriented language (I'd rather the later).

    translator note 2: I considered Sandbox a proper noun for the specific technology. The literal translation for sand box is "caixa de areia". But you would use that only if you had a cat, not on the internet. 🤣

    AD2 texts:

    • O primeiro MMORPG de Ação em Sandbox onde a sua seleção de raça tem um impacto real no seu jogo. Junte-se à revolução!

    translator note: a few changes here. Every gamer knows what MMORPG is, but the term ARPG is not as common.

    • Humanos: total livre arbítrio
    • Homens-besta: vivendo em harmonia
    • Demônios: sangue e terror

    AD3 texts:

    • Esqueça os velhos clichês de MMORPG e entre em um mundo onde cada item é criado pelos jogadores. Junte-se à revolução!
    • Artesãos e Comerciantes
    • Agricultores e Pastores

    translator note: I assumed you meant shepherds here, otherwise I don't know what "shepers" means 😛

    • Mineradores e Lenhadores
    • Caçadores e Catadores

    AD4 texts:

    • Cansado de MMOs onde a diversão começa 80 horas depois de começar a jogar? Junte-se à revolução!
    • Vá Direto Para a Ação
    • Adeus Grind, Bem-vindo Conhecimento!

    translator note: check the note about grind above.

    • Todo dia uma nova jogabilidade

    final translator note: I just kept most capital letters as they were written. The basic formal rules are the same than in english, only at: phrases start, proper nouns, etc.

    That's it. A second opinion woudn't hurt tho

    @muker oh, you edited the original post, I didn't notice. Thank you! 1000 points added! 🙂

    A couple questions:

    • Is the "Постухи" actually a shepherd - the generic word?
    • Does "боевые действиями" mean "action combat" (the type of combat of ARPG games, like Diablo or Path of Exile)? Because I'm afraid it means "combat actions", which has a very different meaning 🙂

    @Lohen @Kralith what's the big deal with "join the revolution"? 😄 Does it sound strange because it sounds real-life political?

    mhhh very good question 😄
    "join the revolution" sounds like you need every single one to make something new and big
    of course you need the playerbase but you DO the new
    we want to take part on your journey
    so feel or experience the revolution sounds like something is actually going to happen
    it cant be stopped you know 😄

    @Lohen @Kralith what's the big deal with "join the revolution"? 😄 Does it sound strange because it sounds real-life political?

    Your intention is, that the people want to join your dream of a new gamedirection. But we want to feel it.
    In your sentences always was an question in kind of "are you tired about...", that points a feeling.
    We all want that revolution and we all look forward to join it. But the point is, we want to feel it, as much we felt pain in the past or want to get a feeling about good old days.
    I was wondering about, why my translation sounded so stiff in german, but i guess thats a good point to think about the how to say, that it will be special to be with.

    So Lohens Translation of "Erlebe die Revolution!" is more like "Live/Experience the Revolution" or how @Jetah said above: "I'd prefer "experience or feel the revolution" in english instead of "join".."

    @Prometheus (gonna tag you also) To me Experience the Revolution is more about me making a difference or becoming a difference. Join feels more like I'm there as a number but don't really matter in the grand scheme of things.

    Honestly I'd do some split advertising between Experience, Join and Feel to see which is clicked more!


  • TF#12 - PEOPLE'S HERALD

    @jetah

    Just adding my own two cents here, but to me personally "experience the revolution" feels like watching a movie, whereas "join" means having an actual role and doing something. I guess it's different for each person.

    that's why i said to do some split advertising.

    when you join will you be able to do anything or will you be another number in corporate paperwork?

    Whats about "Be the Revolution!" ?
    I mean if we mix this in too, it would describe all the possibilities.
    I guess there are so many interpretations, we will not find one point to describe all in one. 😉

    We also could combine "Join and feel The Revolution!"


  • TF#12 - PEOPLE'S HERALD

    @kralith

    Be the Revolution is also good. Sounds like a call-to-action phrase. It sounds like the person is to be proactive to get things done.


  • Wiki Editor

    Exactly! That was one of my first thoughts too.
    Join is more like "Go to school", Experience and feel like consuming.
    Be is the direct point to do something you want to do, to be creative and to carry the sense of.

    Hmm... somehow we sound all a bit dramatic in our ideas 😄
    But i like it! 🙂


  • TF#12 - PEOPLE'S HERALD

    How about "Revolution is Here!" ? 😉


  • TF#12 - PEOPLE'S HERALD

    @gothix

    but i had no parts in that happening. so it sounds passive.

    Yeah. Most gamers are lazy / slackers and prefer others do stuff for them. So to most of players "revolution is here, I can be lazy and just enjoy the results" will sound more appealing. 😉
