@FuzioN2006 Yeah, the job of a localizer is to ensure that the message comes across correctly, because direct translations can be very awkward and even incorrect at times due to context and language differences.

@Bjarkenb Yeah, I know that much, I'm just saying what their job is supposed to be. Do you have any examples of those differences?

It would be nice to see some examples of those changes as well. While I'm fairly certain she's the bad one in this scenario, I don't really want to talk shit about someone if I don't know enough details about it. If someone could kindly give me an example or two of how she changed things, I'd appreciate it.

@majeedmamah7457 That's what the localizer is meant to figure out. They need to understand their culture well enough. Sometimes they use wordplay which simply can't be translated, which is again, the job of the localizer.
